I earned my master’s degree in social work from George Williams College and hold licensure in both Illinois and Wisconsin. My clinical experience spans work with diverse populations, including teens and adults navigating a wide range of mental health challenges. I am trained in several evidence‐based therapeutic modalities—CBT, DBT, ACT, and EMDR—which allows me to tailor treatment to each person’s needs and support meaningful, sustainable change.

I provide individual therapy as well as family and couples work. I value helping people move through life’s stressors, strengthen their coping skills, and recognize the progress they make toward their goals.

If you have questions about the services and supports available to you, your family, or your loved ones, I’m here to help. I’d also be glad to share more about what I enjoy most in the therapeutic process and how we can work together to build a healthier, more grounded life.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Saint Charles

Finding therapists in Saint Charles starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist experience matches it. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. You may also want a therapist with experience in couples therapy, marriage counseling, or a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. Reading therapist bios can help you see what each person focuses on, how they describe their style, and whether their background fits what you want to discuss.

Saint Charles is a smaller market, so local in-person appointment options may be more limited than in larger parts of Illinois. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Illinois. As you compare St. Charles therapists, consider practical fit as well as clinical fit: appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A profile can also show whether a therapist works with individuals, couples, families, or people looking for faith-informed care, such as Christian counseling.

Therapy in Saint Charles can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and compare virtual or in-person availability in one place. You can browse profiles, review specialties, and book directly when you find a therapist who matches your needs and accepts your plan.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
