Who I Help
I work with women and young adults who may be:
- Feeling constantly anxious or overthinking everything
- Burned out from work, parenting, or daily responsibilities
- Struggling with self-doubt or low confidence
- Navigating major life transitions
- Struggling with work/school/sports/life balance
- Trying to “hold it all together” but feeling exhausted inside
Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside.
My Approach
My approach is direct and honest. I’ll tell you what I’m noticing, but never without care. Think of it as someone holding your hand while also telling you the truth you need to hear. As a therapist in Homewood, IL, I used a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients understand their patterns and build practical, real-work skills for change.
In our work together, I:
- Use CBT to help you identify and reframe the thought patterns that keep you stuck
- Use DBT skills to build emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier coping strategies
- Give you honest, straightforward feedback that is delivered with warmth, not judgment
- Hold you accountable to the goals you set for yourself
- Stay flexible and adjust our approach when life gets in the way of the plan
I hold my clients to a high standard because I believe in what they are capable of. Real growth takes effort, and I’ll be there matching that effort with you.
What to Expect in Therapy with Brea
In our sessions, you can expect:
- A safe space where you can be yourself
- Practical tools to manage anxiety and stress
- Support in setting boundaries and prioritizing your needs
- Guidance in understanding patterns and making lasting changes
My goal is to help you feel more confident, calm, and connected in your daily life.
