About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, ADHD-Certified Specialist, and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) dedicated to helping adults overcome depression, manage anxiety, and build strategies for ADHD and life’s challenges.
Struggling with depression, anxiety, or feeling overwhelmed by life changes can make it hard to see a way forward. I specialize in working with adults who are managing these challenges along with ADHD, chronic illness, or caregiving responsibilities.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, ADHD-Certified Specialist, and Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP), I combine professional expertise with a warm, supportive approach. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel understood and empowered to make meaningful changes.
I offer flexible telehealth sessions across Illinois, so you can access support from the comfort of your home. Together, we’ll explore strategies to ease the weight of depression and anxiety, manage ADHD, and strengthen your ability to navigate life’s stressors with clarity and resilience.
