Director of Counseling

Background Statement

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (Chicago State University) and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health (National Louis University) . In 2014, I became a Certified AODA Counselor working specifically with those struggling with addiction  My areas of interest in mental health include development of coping skills, inner child work, and cognitive reconstruction as well as breaking generational patterns, self-care, and psychoeducation. Solution-focused therapy, person centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and interpersonal psychotherapy are theoretical approaches I have found to be successful.
