As a former Division I athlete, I understand the unique mental and emotional challenges tied to identity, belonging, and performance. My therapeutic work focuses on helping individuals rebuild self esteem, navigate life transitions, and heal from the impact of generational and childhood trauma that may still be affecting their present. I also work with couples to improve communication, strengthen connection, and build healthier relationship patterns. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and rooted in helping clients feel seen and empowered in their growth. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Benedictine University and my Master’s in Social Work from DePaul University.
