As a licensed, clinical professional counselor in the state of Illinois, I bring 8 years of experience working with individuals towards a mentally prosperous way of life. While each and every person coming to therapy has their own unique needs, and seeks different outcomes from the counseling process, my style of therapy challenges the client to think critically, be mindful, and increase self-awareness, in order to affect positive change and realize true power. At Taking Charge, I create a trusting and secure environment for self-discovery and personal growth. I believe each step we take shows us new beginnings. You have taken the first step today, and I welcome you as you take another.
