Clinical Psychologist

she/her/hers

Therapy with me is rooted in the belief that healing happens in relationship, including internally with ourselves and with others. I provide a warm and affirming space where you can bring your full self, your struggles, and your strengths. Collaboratively, we’ll work to untangle personal difficulties and relational struggles, while nurturing the kind of growth that feels authentic and empowering.

I care about supporting clients experiencing a variety of symptoms, including relationship difficulties, shame, anxiety/depression, women's issues, religious trauma, life transition, and political anxiety. Therapy should honor your lived experiences, cultural identities, and unique journey. As a relational and community-oriented therapist, I work collaboratively to explore how systemic, societal, and relational dynamics impact your well-being. My practice centers liberation and affirmation, helping you reclaim agency and strengthen your resilience. Healing is not just an individual journey, it’s a collective one!

What You Can Expect:

• A Relationship of Trust: Therapy isn’t just about problem-solving or solution-finding, it’s about building a safe and supportive relationship where you feel seen, heard, and valued.

• Affirmation and Respect: Your identity, experiences, and emotions are welcome here. I provide a nonjudgmental space for exploration and self-discovery.

• Liberation-Oriented Growth: We’ll address the ways systemic inequities may shape your experiences and work toward creating a life rooted in freedom, balance, and joy.

• Community-Centered Healing: I believe we heal better together. We’ll explore how connection, with yourself and others, can bring deeper clarity and groundedness.

Education:

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, earning my doctorate degree from The Chicago School in 2022. Additionally, I earned a Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology in 2017. I have had the privilege of clinical training and clinical work as a psychologist for almost ten years, supporting clients in life transitions, identity development, interpersonal and systemic violence, navigating neurodiversity, grief, relationship difficulties, substance use, and mental health diagnoses.
