Clinical Supervisor / Therapist
Primary Areas of Care: Addiction, Emerging Adults, Anxiety, and Depression

I specialize in Anxiety, Depression, Addiction, and Identity integration. I am a seasoned Master level psychotherapist and clinical supervisor. As graduate of Loyola University of Chicago, I earned a Masters in Clinical Social Work and I hold a certification in Addiction Treatment (Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor). With a decade of experience, I have extensive experience in the mental health field ranging from working with young adults in small groups, addiction recovery clinics, private practice, and for the past 6 years, with Cornerstone Counseling Center of Chicago. As a therapist my approach is person-centered and solution-focused, utilizing empathic understanding, collaboration, and cognitive-behavioral techniques. I engage clients in multimodal approaches in treating various mood disorders. With my Social Work training I am able to effectively and therapeutically integrate each client's unique personal and environmental context while recognizing the role of faith, community, gender, sexuality, and racial background into the therapeutic setting. Overall, I try to utilize a unique combination of these treatment modalities that revolve around ‘meeting you where you are at and growing from there’.
