Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 19 mi away • Tinley Park, IL


I earned my Bachelor's degree in Social Work and later my Master's in Social Work, becoming a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have extensive experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and major life transitions. While I welcome adults from all backgrounds, I have a special passion and expertise in working with Women of Color. I understand the unique pressures many women carry—the expectation to always be strong, care for everyone else, and keep pushing even when they're emotionally exhausted. My goal is to provide a culturally responsive, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're navigating grief, divorce, burnout, empty nesting, or rediscovering yourself, I'll meet you with compassion, honesty, and practical tools to help you move forward.
