Are you struggling to adjust to current life challenges, having difficulty in relationships, or in need of healing early emotional wounds and/or trauma, parenting issues, self-esteem, and coping skills, finding the right therapist can help make the difference between surviving and thriving? Hope and healing often begins with connection, and it's my goal to provide a supportive, compassionate space where you can become open to the process of healing and work toward positive change. Does your child often find it difficult to make friends, experience loneliness, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem. Together we will utilize multiple approaches including play therapy which includes games, sand therapy, and art therapy. The approach is to ultimately tailor my approach to the needs of the individual. Coming to therapy takes a significant step of bravery and the focus is to create an environment that promotes acceptance and growth. Together, we will work on strategies that allow them to understand and address the causes of their difficulties and build meaningful social connections. With over ten years working in education and five years working as a case manager for individuals with developmental disabilities my journey led to becoming a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin. My passion is helping the individuals from eight years of age and older overcome life's challenges. It would be my privilege to support you as you begin your path to healing and growing.
