About
Hello! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor from Chicago with five years of clinical experience. I am a member of the LGBTQIA community and specialize in obsessive compulsive disorders, anxiety, depression, and men's issues. I employ a mix of Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Trauma Focused, and Person-Centered therapies, and utilize Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD, Exposure Therapy for Anxiety, and Behavioral Activation for Depression. As a career-changer from the medical field to working as a therapist, I get that life throws you curveballs sometimes, but we can work together to get through those curveballs.
My communication style is patient, observant, and sometimes directive. I prefer a conversational approach and incorporate therapeutic tools and humor into sessions where appropriate. I have a holistic approach and will work with you on individual goals as we embark on the therapy journey together.
Seeking help can be difficult. In our first session, I’ll get to know more about you and what brings you to counseling. I will seek to understand your experiences that brought you to this moment, and how our work together can help you live more fully. If you think we might be a good fit, I welcome you to reach out and get started today!
