About Me

Welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist licensed in the state of Illinois. I also provide teletherapy throughout the country with my licensure through PsyPact. I received my PhD in Counseling Psychology at the University of Louisville, where I received specialized training in individual therapy and couple therapy. I completed my doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Illinois at Chicago Counseling Center working with both undergraduate and graduate students. Throughout my career, I have supervised therapists in training, taught adjunct courses and seminars on psychotherapy, and published research on psychotherapy and romantic relationships.

​

My approach to therapy is insight oriented (also referred to as psychodynamic therapy) and emotion focused. I strongly believe that our emotions provide a road map toward happiness once understood fully, and I strive to help clients discover how their feelings, relationships, and desires all provide direction toward happier, more fulfilled lives. Further, I believe that processing past, meaningful experiences can empower us to have a better understanding of current selves and more control over our future.
