About
I provide telehealth counseling in Illinois for individuals, couples, and families. I am EMDR certified and trained in Brainspotting. I utilize a holistic approach to counseling, which encompasses all aspects of a person's life. Rather than treating just the symptoms, this approach looks deeper and tries to uncover underlying causes. I am also dedicated to facilitating mental health treatment, education, and awareness while using an inclusive lens. Not only is it important to explore individual experiences, but I also recognize the need to be aware of historical and current structural systems of inequality.
