I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Chicago with over 10 years of experience helping young adults navigate periods of uncertainty, transition, and burnout. I specialize in working with individuals who feel disconnected from the career paths, academic pursuits, or definitions of success they have spent years working toward.

Many of the clients I work with have grown up under significant familial, cultural, or social pressure to achieve certain milestones or follow a particular trajectory. Over time, they may find themselves questioning whether the goals they have been pursuing truly reflect their own values and aspirations. This can lead to feelings of exhaustion, self-doubt, and difficulty trusting their own instincts.

My approach is collaborative, curious, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with understanding the experiences that have shaped us. Together, we explore patterns in your relationships, family dynamics, and lived experiences that may have influenced your beliefs about self-worth, achievement, and personal ambition. Through this process, I help clients develop greater self-awareness, reconnect with their authentic values, and build confidence in making decisions that feel aligned with who they are—not simply who they have been expected to be.

Whether you are experiencing early career burnout, questioning your professional direction, or struggling to find fulfillment despite outward success, therapy can provide a space to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and intention.
