A Safe and Supportive Space for Healing

Hello, and welcome to Tapiz. Whether you’re seeking therapy for yourself, support for your child, or guidance for your family, know that you’re not alone—and stepping forward already shows courage. Here, you’ll find a warm, supportive, and trauma-informed space for healing, growth, and connection.

I provide therapy for children, individuals, and families, along with guidance for parents and professionals. I am licensed in Illinois to provide services throughout the state, with deep roots in Chicago and a commitment to serving families statewide. I am currently offering secure telehealth services, making therapy accessible from the comfort and privacy of your own home.

Our Services

A safe space for adolescents and adults to feel heard, supported, and understood. Individual therapy offers the opportunity to explore challenges, build resilience, and move toward healing and growth—whether you’re navigating stress, relationship struggles, trauma, or major life transitions.

Individual Therapy

Families grow stronger when they feel connected. Child and family therapy provides a safe and supportive space to work through challenges, strengthen relationships, and nurture resilience. Whether your child is struggling with big feelings, behaviors, or life changes, we’ll work together to restore balance, deepen understanding, and create more harmony at home.

Child & Family Therapy

Parenting doesn’t come with a manual, and it’s normal to feel unsure at times. Parent consultations and groups like Circle of Security® Parenting™ and Tuning Into Kids® provide a supportive space to reflect, learn new tools, and strengthen your connection with your child. Together, we’ll explore challenges, celebrate strengths, and build confidence in your parenting journey.

Parent Consultations & Support

Supporting those who support others. I provide reflective supervision, consultation, and training for professionals working with children and families. These services create a safe space to reflect, build skills, and strengthen your ability to offer compassionate, effective care.
