About Me

I have worked as a therapist with clients ranging from adolescents to elders and have experience in a variety of community settings, including inpatient and outpatient medical care, substance abuse treatment programs, social services, and schools. In addition to my therapy experience, I previously worked as a medical social worker and case manager, and am familiar with issues of navigating chronic illness, the medical system, aging, caregiving, and serious mental illness. I hold a master’s degree in clinical social work from Smith College School for Social Work (2015), a psychodynamically focused graduate program. I hold licenses in both Illinois and California, and have been in private practice since 2023.
