A little bit about me

Hello! I graduated from Indiana University Northwest with a Psychology B.A. I am currently working on receiving my masters degree in clinical psychology at Roosevelt University. I have many years of experience working with children of all ages. I believe in providing children a stimulating and educational environment where they are encouraged to grow and develop many skills.

It is important that children are able to learn how to deal with their emotions in a healthy manner. I have helped many kids navigate their emotions so they are able to express themselves through overwhelming times. Please reach out to me for any questions! Thank you :)
