Sanya is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Registered Art Therapist, who graduated with distinction when she earned her bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Studio Art from Loyola University of Chicago, and went on to achieve her master’s degree in Art Therapy and Counseling from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Sanya was trained from a social justice pedagogy and instills these values in her culturally sensitive practice, meeting each person where they are at by empowering their intersectional identities. She believes that mental health is directly impacted by systems of injustice and oppression, particularly as they continue to have ongoing impact. Sanya has worked in community mental health, private practice, and clinical settings, and has worked with clients of all ages from many different cultural backgrounds and LGBTQIA+ identities.

Sanya excels at working with Individual Adults (21+).

Sanya utilizes evidenced-based interventions that stem from Somatic interventions, Art Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) with a focus on inner-child work.
