Hi there, I'm Heather!

I’m an Illinois LCSW specializing in trauma-focused therapy, including EMDR. I help individuals and families navigate anxiety, relationship stress, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and empowered in your life and relationships.

My focus

I work with adults, teens, and couples experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and emotional overwhelm. I support trauma survivors, including first responders, and help to improve emotional regulation, behavior, and connection.

My approach

My approach is collaborative, practical, and trauma-informed. I integrate EMDR, CBT, ACT, and strengths-based strategies to help you understand patterns, regulate emotions, and process difficult experiences. Therapy moves at your pace, with a focus on safety, clarity, and meaningful change.
