I have over 24 years experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. My initial training was child and adolescent focused, however, I have worked extensively with adults, young adults and couples over the last 12 years. I have 16 years experience working for a non-for profit agency. This experience included working in adolescent group homes, specialized foster care, and consultation in a high school, summer camp, and elementary school. I received training at Loyola University's Sex Clinic for couples. This program focused on education, as well as opening lines of communication between partners.
I admire the tenacity of individuals who are looking for the "right therapist". I have worked with many individuals who've struggled in making a positive connection with their therapist. I'm able to easily establish rapport with my patients, which invites a safe, comfortable and trusting relationship to develop.
My goal is to help individuals achieve wellness in all areas of their life. The best measure of success is to provide individuals with the insight, understanding and tools necessary to be successful on their own.
