About

I work collaboratively to help you become aware of your strengths and start finding solutions that will enhance your life and relationships. I believe within each of us lies the solution to any life challenge, and it is my role to help you uncover your innate wisdom and inner strength to heal. My style of therapy can be described as compassionate, collaborative, holistic, and interactive. We will work together to develop your goals for therapy, and my approach will be tailored to your specific situation and your personality. Perhaps most importantly, I provide a safe and empathic environment to explore your thoughts and feelings.

My approach to therapy is to integrate specific techniques from different modalities based on the needs and desires of the individual. Some of the therapeutic modalities I incorporate into the treatment process include: Client-Centered Therapy, Rational-Emotive Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Energy Psychology, and Transpersonal Therapy.

I received my bachelor’s degree in psychology from Northwestern University in 1997 and my graduate counseling degree from Loyola University Chicago in 2000. I have experience working as an addictions counselor, grief counselor, certified domestic violence counselor, youth counselor, career counselor, academic counselor and crisis/emergency counselor. I have also received advanced training in transpersonal psychotherapy from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology (ITP).
