Ralph Waldo Emerson said it best, "Nothing ever great was accomplished without Enthusiasm". My passion is not only helping others in a time in need but also treating them with respect and dignity. I hold myself to high standards in maintaining the right of client determination while showing unconditional positive regard for all. My own goal as a therapist is to try to help others feel empowered, restored, and of course enthusiastic each and everyday. I believe it is important for others to know there's a moment in our lives where we need to feel listened, important, and valued. I want to help each and every client reach their goals and help them become the person they aspire to be. I believe in diversity in my practice and in life. I am from the city of "Broad Shoulders", Chicago, IL. I have treated people from various cultures, races, and religions. I have worked in various environments the public schools out patient mental health facilities, and health care.
