Life coaching in Chicago, IL

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 10 years of experience, and more than 6 years of experience working as a therapist. Prior to working as a professional counselor, I provided clinical case management to individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues in a variety of settings. I am passionate about helping individuals who are striving to overcome issues like depression, anxiety, life transitions, anger, self-destructive behavior (substance use, self-sabotage, etc.), and existential crises.

I completed my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Walden University and my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at Marquette University. I take a strength-based approach with each client, utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in my care.

As a counselor who has been influenced by the work of Dr. Viktor Frankl, I place emphasis on helping clients to create meaning in the midst of difficult circumstances in order to turn tragedies into triumphs. If you are ready to explore how you can best respond to your current challenges, schedule an appointment with me today.

As a Licensed Social Worker with a background in intensive healthcare, I bring a deeply compassionate, real-world approach to healing relationships and minds. I specialize in couples therapy, anxiety, and depression, helping both individuals and partners navigate the heavy seasons of life.

I help partners move past chronic conflict, heal from emotional distance, and rebuild trust using evidence-based, collaborative relationship strategies. For individuals battling anxiety, depression, or life-altering curveballs, I provide structured CBT and trauma-informed care to help you discover practical coping tools and and regain your confidence.

Whether you are working to heal your relationship or your own internal peace, you don’t have to walk this path alone. Let's work together to build a resilient, fulfilling future.
