I approach counseling from a collaborative lens that honors the complexity of identity (ethnicity, gender, disability, language, sexual orientation and any other factors that relate to an individual's

personal, societal and cultural experiences).

 

Above all, I believe Your Story Matters.

​

I support adults in unpacking their unique stories in a meaningful way.

I work with hearing adults age 18 and above, and Deaf individuals age 15 and above.

 

I have a Certificate of Graduate Study in Trauma Informed Counseling,

am EMDR certified and IFS informed.

I am proficient in American Sign Language (I am hearing).

I am a devoted LGBTQ+ ally.

​

Along with providing clinical counseling services, I am a Core Faculty in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Masters Degree Program at Northwestern University's Family Institute.
