I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Illinois and Idaho certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Thanatology (CT). I practice a client-centered strength-based approach, incorporating a focus on mindfulness to promote mental well-being and strength of Self. This approach encourages a collaborative therapeutic relationship to facilitate healing and growth. Through my work as a therapist, I am reminded daily of the resilient nature of the human spirit. From experiences with disappointment to unimaginable trauma, people find the courage to ask for help and to move forward. It is the greatest privilege to, for a time, join someone on their path to healing. My clients allow me to meet them with support when they struggle and to celebrate their joy when they persevere. I am acknowledging that tragedy happens every day, and so does triumph. Our days vary, but don’t we all know what it’s like to have a really bad day and also an amazing day? Therapy is an outlet. A seed of change. Know that no matter what intrudes into - or shatters - our assumptions of this imperfect world, we don’t have to be in it alone. There is nothing more encouraging than a conversation about the possibilities of the life a person can create. Allow yourself to make space for that conversation and for subsequent change. My clinical experience includes therapy with adolescents and adults, specializing in trauma, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, life transitions, and grief and loss. Informed by continuing education and experience in psychotherapy and counseling, I base my interventions on unique presented needs, providing supportive guidance toward identified goals.

Whether working towards gaining insight into specific circumstances, symptom relief, improved function, it is my hope we can work collaboratively to achieve it. It takes a lot of strength to work towards finding a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are willing to take that step, it would be a privilege if you would allow me to walk beside you.

I am a licensed psychologist in Illinois with over 20 years of experience. My primary clinical focus is helping clients navigate concerns related to addiction and recovery. This includes not only alcohol and substance abuse disorders but also process addictions such as gambling, pornography, internet use, and social media dependency. I integrate evidence-based support groups (e.g., AA/NA, Recovery Dharma & SMART Recovery) into one's recovery program to enhance and sustain long-term recovery. In addition to my specialization in addictions, I also work with clients experiencing depression and anxiety, trauma and grief, relationship conflicts, anger management issues, adult ADHD challenges, and job or career difficulties. Both my therapy and coaching styles are person-centered, values-based, and solution-focused. I am committed to treating each individual with respect, sensitivity, and unconditional positive regard. My multimodal therapeutic approach integrates Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Humanistic-Existential therapy, Harm Reduction methods, Hypnotherapy, and Self-Help Facilitation strategies. I provide psychoeducation to ensure clients thoroughly understand their challenges, and I personalize all therapy sessions and treatment plans to meet each client’s unique needs and goals. Additionally, I conduct more in-depth psychological assessments when needed. Achieving meaningful change through solution-focused therapy requires openness, self-awareness, and committed action toward psychological flexibility and a more fulfilling life. I look forward to supporting and facilitating your journey toward these positive changes.

Hi there! I am both a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) as well as a Qualified Intellectual Disabilities Professional (QIDP). I completed my Bachelor's degree in Social Work, with a minor in Sociology, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2013. I then continued on to get my Master's in Social Work, with a concentration of Mental Health, also from the U of I, graduating in August 2014. I participated in internships at The Autism Program and Skill Sprout, both clinics designed to support children and adults who identify as autistic. In January 2020, I was awarded Outstanding New Social Worker from the University of Illinois School of Social Work. For 4 years, I served as the President of the downstate chapter of the Illinois Society for Clinical Social Workers. I have spent my career working with, and advocating for, individuals and families who are navigating an uncertain path. I have worked with individuals, parents, college students, and families. Much of my professional career has involved supporting individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities, including autism & ADHD. I also have expertise in supporting parents and families who are involved in caregiving and may be coping with life changes. I have had the privilege of supporting individuals to determine goals in life and set actionable steps to achieve those objectives. I believe in the right to self determination and that everyone has the choice to carve out their own path. Everyone has innumerable strengths; I hope to help bring these to light in our work. I will support our work by serving as a sounding board, confidant, and respectful consultant as you navigate through life's changes. I applaud you for seeking this step and look forward to our work together. - Annie

Sometimes we might feel like nobody understands us or what we are going through. Life can present some major challenges, and it is hard to be trapped in what seems like an inescapable situation. I know what it is like to feel stuck. These types of situations are numerous: problems communicating with a partner, having low motivation in a job, missing a loved one that you have lost, paralyzing anxiety about making an important decision. Seeking the help of a mental health professional is the first step in getting unstuck. There is great courage in being able to ask for help. I am glad that you are embarking on this journey.
