Hello! I am so glad you are here. My name is Bella and I was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago. I received my master’s in mental health counseling from Northwestern University and have worked in the mental health field for over 8 years. I work with children, teens, and adults as well as couples and families. I meet clients where they are at and provide them with a safe, compassionate, and creative space where we can work together to explore each persons unique needs and overcome challenges. Typically, I work with clients who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship/attachment related challenges, and difficulties related to ADHD. As an integrative therapist, I utilize modalities including Internal Family Systems, EMDR, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. As a certified yoga and meditation instructor, I highly value and attend to the body's needs and felt experience throughout my work with clients. Emotions and memories are held and stored in the mind and body, one cannot be resolved without the other. Lastly, I value and welcome humor in all my sessions - laughter is healing! When I am not seeing clients, you can find me surfing, practicing yoga, spending time with friends or planning my next camping trip!
