About me
I am a licensed clinical social worker supporting adults (20s and 30s) in Chicago and online. My approach is collaborative and curious. I bring warmth, compassion, and a genuine interest in getting to know you.
If you are looking to start therapy or return to it, there’s no perfect path, just the one that’s uniquely yours. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on in your life and move toward the kind of emotional health and fulfillment that matters most to you My approach is collaborative and curious. I bring compassion and a genuine interest in getting to know you. We’ll find what works best for you along the way. My clinical experience includes a special focus on adults in their 20s and 30s.
You might be starting or going through school, moving somewhere new, figuring out relationships, or rethinking work and purpose. I utilize an eclectic model of therapeutic frameworks - you are unique, and we will figure out together what works best for you. I work with Aetna, BCBS ppo I also offer custom care/concierge care.
Right when you start therapy with me, we begin to unfold your story together. You gain new skills and insights in the very first appointment. I see therapy as a collaborative process, and together we create a space that feels distinctly yours. We start with an introductory meeting to ensure a collaborative decision on fit.
