I am currently accepting new clients !
Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, or body image issues that affect your relationships, ability to function, or your ability to be present? Is it difficult to feel grounded in yourself and your identity? Do you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or lost by what it means to live up to someone else’s standards, just getting through the day, or actually taking the steps to help you feel better? Do you hope that day to day life could be better or feel easier? Now more than ever, many are feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about finding sources of hope and optimism when the world seems more and more difficult to navigate and learning to care for yourself feels like a low priority in comparison.
I believe we can identify support and sources of stability when it feels so hard to find a meaningful place to get started. I offer support utilizing CBT and Mindfulness frameworks for people who need a safe space to process difficult thoughts and feelings. I start with identifying your personal goals. I then begin creating realistic ways to get started and will work toward creating a life that feels more predictable and grounded. I offer a safe, accepting and inclusive environment so you can feel like you are making meaningful progress without shame or judgement.
Living your genuine connected life is our passion. I guide you toward feeling more grounded, self-identified and connected.
Feel free to reach out to me to via email or phone as I offer a FREE 15-minute phone consultation.
I am LCSW able to provide therapy in the states of Illinois and Indiana.
