Your Journey Therapy
Providing therapy to children, adolescents, teens, young adults, and families.
Beneath every behavior is a feeling, And beneath every feeling is a need rather than focus on a behavior, we begin to deal with the cause and not the symptom.

ABOUT
YOUR JOURNEY THERAPY
As Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) deeply invested in creating inclusive, empowering spaces, we are here to support you on your journey toward self-discovery and healing. Our approach is rooted in the principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), two powerful modalities that equip us to understand and transform thought patterns as well as emotional responses. We genuinely believe that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all experience; rather, it should be as unique and vibrant as the individuals who come through our door. Together, we will craft a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific therapeutic needs, strengths, and goals, ensuring that you feel seen, heard, and validated in every session. Creating an environment of trust and safety is paramount to us, especially as allies of the LGBTQ+ community. We strive to cultivate a welcoming atmosphere where everyone can explore their identities and experiences without fear of judgment or prejudice. Your journey is important, and we are here to guide you through it, meeting you at whatever stage you find yourself. Let’s embark on this empowering path together, working collaboratively to unlock your potential and foster resilience. You deserve to take control of your healing process, and We are honored to accompany you every step of the way. Reach out today, and let's start this transformative journey together.
Individual Therapy
Personalized Sessions
My individual therapy sessions are designed to help you address personal issues, navigate life transitions, and enhance self-awareness. Through one-on-one sessions, I create a supportive environment for you to explore your feelings and achieve personal growth.
Family Therapy
Healing Family Dynamics
Family therapy sessions aim to improve family relationships, address conflicts, and promote understanding and unity. By exploring family dynamics and communication patterns, we work together to create a harmonious and supportive family environment.
\Walk and Talk group
Reconnecting with Nature:
Summer Camp
A unique therapy group offers a transformative experience combining walking, mindfulness, and creative self-expression to help individuals reconnect with themselves, nature, and others. Research shows that spending time in nature benefits mental health by reducing anxiety, enhancing mood, and promoting well-being. Walking improves physical health and emotional regulation, while connection with others fosters emotional resilience through shared experiences and support. This group is designed for adults 18+ facing challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress management, or parenting-related stress. It offers mindfulness practices, unconventional journaling techniques, and various art forms to explore self-care and self-compassion, with no prior writing or art experience required. Join us at the Hampshire Forest Preserve, located at 44W780 Allen Rd., Hampshire, IL, for a journey of self-discovery and healing. Starting Wednesday, October 9th at 10:30 AM, this open group of 10 participants will explore new forms of release and understanding amidst the breathtaking natural backdrop. Each session costs $40, which can be billed to insurance, or a sliding scale is available for those in need. Walking outdoors, mindfulness, and creative expression can be pivotal in managing life’s struggles. Remember, there’s no right or wrong way to explore your feelings—just a supportive community.
