Corinne is a Licensed Social Worker in Illinois who believes therapy should be a collaborative, individualized process tailored to each client’s unique experiences and goals. She is passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, navigate life’s challenges, and create meaningful and lasting change. Corinne strives to provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe exploring their inner world and building greater self-awareness, resilience, and confidence.

Corinne’s therapeutic approach is integrative and draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and trauma-informed care approaches:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach focused on identifying and challenging unhelpful thoughts and behavioral patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Through CBT, clients learn practical coping strategies to create healthier patterns of thinking, feeling, and responding.
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) incorporates skills related to emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT helps clients develop healthier ways to manage overwhelming emotions while balancing acceptance and change.
  • Psychodynamic Therapy focuses on increasing insight into unconscious patterns, past experiences, and relationship dynamics that may impact present-day emotions, behaviors, and relationships. This approach can help clients better understand themselves and create more intentional ways of relating to others and navigating life stressors.
  • Corinne also incorporates a trauma-informed lens into her work and is trained in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics, a developmentally sensitive and neurobiology-informed approach to understanding and treating trauma.

Corinne earned her Master’s degree in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. She is a Licensed Social Worker with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation and has experience working with adults in private practice settings. Prior to becoming a therapist, Corinne worked in consulting, which gives her additional insight into workplace stress, perfectionism, high-achievement environments, and career-related transitions.

Corinne feels deeply honored to walk alongside clients during difficult and transformative periods in their lives. She values building authentic therapeutic relationships and believes one of the most meaningful parts of being a therapist is helping clients recognize their strengths, navigate vulnerability, and experience growth and healing.
In her free time, Corinne enjoys traveling, cooking, and spending quality time with friends and family.

Corinne is a great therapist that approaches therapy with empathy, insight, and emphasis on creating a safe space for her client’s to explore personal challenges and make meaningful progress. I highly recommend Corinne as a therapist.
