About Me
I’m a therapist that is focused on assisting individuals with believing that healing is possible. I come from the view that everyone is deserving of living a life that aligns with who they truly are, not what traumatic experiences have caused them to be. I feel that EMDR is beneficial to all and provide services from an EMDR approach.
Education & Experience
I’m a Certified EMDR Therapist and have seen the impact it can have on individuals. I love telling people that originally, I was VERY hesitant about even learning about EMDR, but once I saw how it helps I was hooked. I didn’t just get trained in it, I did the extra work to get certified in it. I’m fully licensed in the State of Illinois and Iowa.
