I specialize in helping parents improve the quality of their relationships with their children. Relationships start during pregnancy and can be strengthened at any point during the child’s life. I draw inspiration when parents learn new ways to manage strong feelings during challenging moments. I also work with individuals seeking support with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and life transitions. I have special expertise working with individuals looking to rebuild their life after a separation or divorce. I happily lead Wildflower’s “Being with Baby” series.
Reaching out for support is one of the most important decisions you have had to make. Together we will create a safe and trusting space for you to take hold of your values and move towards living a more meaningful life.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Winona State University. I obtained my Master’s degree in Social Work and my Master’s degree in Jurisprudence from Loyola University Chicago. To support the parent-child relationship, I earned the Infant Mental Health Certificate from Erikson Institute in Chicago. I am also a registered parent educator of Circle of Security and a Certified Educator of Infant Massage.

Key beliefs
Our children need us to be good enough, not perfect.
Pain often has a purpose and if we can identify the purpose for our pain it can help guide us towards healing and acceptance.
Connection is an important component of change. In the therapeutic process we walk together to make change happen. You are never alone.
More about me
I love to travel and experience different cultures.
I am a foodie and enjoy trying restaurants around Chicago.
