Healing begins in a safe, compassionate, and collaborative environment where you feel heard, understood, and supported. I am passionate about walking alongside children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges, including trauma, substance use, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), depression, relationship concerns, and other difficult life circumstances. I believe that God meets you with grace and compassion, and I strive to bring those same qualities into the therapeutic space while helping you recognize your strengths, build resilience, and develop practical skills that foster lasting growth and healing.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while remaining flexible to meet your unique needs and goals. Together, we’ll work on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, building healthier coping strategies, and making meaningful changes to support your emotional well-being. I also have a strong passion for facilitating therapeutic groups, as I believe the shared experience of healing within a supportive community can foster connection, encouragement, and personal growth. When desired, I welcome opportunities to integrate Christianity into the therapeutic space.

I am committed to creating a supportive, collaborative space where you feel empowered to heal, grow, and reach your goals.  It would be a privilege to walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges.

As a fifth-year doctoral student at Adler University, I am completing my clinical internship under the supervision of Dr. Ann Letourneau, CSJ, and as part of the Chicago Area Christian Training Consorsium.

I offer care that is grounded in evidence and guided by compassion and respect. I strive to create conversations that are authentic, empathic, and safe. I am interested in understanding you – your experiences, your story, and the ways those experiences shape how you see yourself and the world.

My approach is flexible so that your goals, values, and lived experiences remain at the center of our work. I bring experiences that have shaped my ongoing growth and skill in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, values, behaviors, relationships, and the broader systems around you—and how all of these interact to shape your day‑to‑day life.

My goal is to create a space where you feel supported and understood, so we can move through self‑reflection, growth, and empowerment.

I join CDPCC under the supervision of Dr. Ann Letourneau, CSJ, while finishing my second year of the clinical psychology doctoral program at Roosevelt University.

About Diagnostic Assessment and my goals …

Psychological assessment is a meaningful way to explore your experiences and the strengths that support you, including times when you are seeking greater clarity about yourself, your child, or a particular concern. I am here to guide you through this process with warmth, respect, and clarity. Creating a welcoming environment matters to me—one where you can share your story openly and feel truly heard. Assessment can offer valuable insights that support personal growth, shape treatment planning, and help you understand yourself more fully as you move forward.

I join CDPCC as a second-year doctoral student at The Chicago School while working under the supervision of Dr. Elissa McGovern.
