Biography: I am passionate about supporting adults and adolescents using a holistic, trauma-informed approach, that integrates evidence-based talk therapy with the healing and creative expression of Art Therapy.

I believe in the power of connection – to ourselves, our bodies, our minds, and those we love. I work with each of my clients to co-create a safe, nonjudgmental space, through compassion, curiosity, and humor. Together, we’ll draw on your strengths as you navigate transitions, explore your evolving sense of self, reclaim your story, deepening self-trust, and finding your footing in the world.

I am an LGBTQIA+, Health at Every Size (HAES), and body liberation affirming therapist. My integrative and creative approach draws from relational therapy, trauma-informed care, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Art Therapy. I earned a dual master’s degree in Counseling and Art Therapy from Adler University and have a decade of clinical experience working in multiple treatment settings.

Outside of my professional work, art is a tool I also use for personal expression. I love going to concerts, cheering for the Chicago Bears, spending as much time by the water as I can, and snuggling with my cat Jasper!
