My practice centers on helping people work through depression, ADHD, and bipolar disorder with care that actually fits their life. I've been in independent practice for about two years, and in that time I've found that the providers people stay with are the ones who listen well and adjust as things change. I'm a PMHNP with full practice authority, so I can manage medications and provide psychiatric services without a collaborating physician. I see clients via telehealth throughout Illinois, with flexible scheduling available Monday through Saturday. If you've been waiting to find someone who's approachable and genuinely wants to get you moving in the right direction, I'd like to be that person.

As a clinical therapist with nearly a decade of experience I can truly say people can change their lives by coming to therapy. The therapist can be their guide or mentor to that change. My main area of focus these days is helping clients ages 10-30 with clinical treatment for ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, and Depression. I also focus on working with athletes and helping them manage the demands of performance.

On the outside, you may be high-achieving and appear to have it all together. Inside, you're exhausted from overthinking, second-guessing yourself, and feeling like nothing you do is enough. You say yes when you want to say no, feel guilty putting yourself first, and worry about disappointing others. In relationships, you struggle to express what hurts, question whether you're asking for too much, or give more than you receive. Maybe you've spent years being the strong one, keeping the peace, or putting others first because past experiences taught you that your needs came last.

I know what it's like to feel stuck.

You know something needs to change- because you've been carrying all this guilt around for too long without any support. Maybe you've considered giving up a time or two- and that's why you're here. Either way, you're exhausted. And that makes sense.

​

If you're looking for a therapist who specializes in working with individuals who experienced hurt due to relational wounds, you're in the right place.

Many of the clients I work with struggle with complex attachment wounds, religious trauma and perfectionism disguised as strength. I work alongside my clients to address the root of the overwhelm and shame by offering intensive EMDR (for private-pay only), IFS-informed, holistic self-love practices and person-centered psychology that leads to experiencing true empowerment and connection to your intuition.
