Hello! I have a masters in art therapy but hold licenses to be both a professional counselor and a registered art therapist. This allows me to have a unique take on therapy. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can be yourself, explore challenges at your own pace, and build the skills needed to move forward with confidence.

I use a collaborative, strengths-based approach, tailoring therapy to each person's unique needs, interests, and goals.

While I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused techniques, and trauma-informed care, I also enjoy integrating creativity and art when it feels helpful. No artistic experience is ever required—art is simply another way to express thoughts and emotions that can be difficult to put into words.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, emotional regulation, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your child, I'm committed to helping you feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools that extend beyond our sessions.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist providing virtual ADHD therapy for individuals, couples, and families struggling with overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, relationship stress, and chronic follow-through difficulties.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years as a Life Coach and ADHD Coach, studying and working exclusively with one condition: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). That experience gave me firsthand insight into how deeply ADHD can affect confidence, relationships, emotional regulation, organization, and everyday functioning over time.


This foundation allows me to help individuals, couples, and families address the emotional and relational patterns that often develop after years of feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, disorganized, or mentally overloaded. My work centers on helping individuals, couples, and families better understand how ADHD affects emotions, relationships, and everyday life so they can move forward with greater clarity and self-understanding.

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.
