I am a licensed clinical therapist with over 13 years of experience. I am Latina and bilingual in Spanish. I graduated from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a Master of Arts in Forensic Psychology. I have worked as a therapist in a variety of clinical settings.

I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Loyola University Chicago and a Masters Degree in Counseling from National Louis University. I am registered as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Illinois, a National Certified Counselor and a Professional Educator as a School Counselor in the state of Illinois. I have numerous years of clinical experience in treating children, adolescents, adults and families using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and a variety of other treatment modalities. I have worked in a variety of setting that have ranged from community mental health, psychiatric transition services, middle and high schools, animal assisted therapy, a domestic violence agency, and leading social skills groups.
I love helping both children and adults to cope better with stress, feel more hopeful about the future, and to process difficult moments from the past. Many of my clients have the goal to start living a life that aligns with their values; getting closer to what really matters to them. I see the goal of therapy as helping a client to live, work, learn, and play more freely. That might mean helping a child be brave enough to speak in front of their classmates or help an adult learn to set boundaries in their relationships.
I'm a lifelong learner who has many specialties, but my primary specialties would include Exposure and Response Prevention (Anxiety and OCD), Cognitive Processing Therapy (PTSD), ACT (Depression), Theraplay (children 0-5), treatments for neurodiverse peoples (ADHD and ASD), and Psychological Testing. I can also offer services in Spanish and English.
I appreciate the bravery it took to search for a therapist, and I hope I get the chance to help you and your family carve the next step forward. You are welcome to message me with questions or to set up a quick consult call to see what it'd be like to work with me. I guarantee I will respond to your inquiry within 2 business days.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Plainfield, IL
Searching for therapists in Plainfield starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist experience matches your needs. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, stress, and trauma. As you compare Plainfield therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and details about the concerns they commonly support. A therapist bio can help you understand whether someone uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed therapy, couples counseling, or family therapy.
Plainfield is a smaller local market, so in-person options near Plainfield, Joliet, Crest Hill, and Bolingbrook may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still helping you find a therapist licensed in Illinois. Consider practical fit as you narrow your options, including appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, experience, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Plainfield can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Plainfield, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
