About
Hi. I am a therapist who brings a caring commitment to your health, an EMDR therapist who uses a mix of therapies we will design together. You may need to talk about your life. You may prefer to work another way. My goal is to work with you to find what works to help you move forward. We can adjust along the way. Let's start with a strong relationship that connects us both to your goals. Currently, I'm providing primarily virtual therapy to limit COVID-19 exposure. I care about you overall. When requesting services, please provide a phone number where I can call to allow us to meet on the phone right away.
I love hearing from my clients that their lives have improved as a result of our work together. Leaving my office with that feeling of really helping someone enjoy their own life--there's nothing like it.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Please call me directly. I will answer if I can but if not, I will call you back as soon as possible. I provide a short phone consult to introduce myself and my practice. We will discuss your needs and how I might help. We'll set an appointment to meet in my HIPAA-compliant Zoom Room until safe to meet in my Collinsville office.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with a MA in Professional Counseling. I am licensed in the state of Illinois and clients must be in Illinois or Missouri for me to work with them. I have extensive training in trauma-focused recovery, including EMDR. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I have been providing this therapy using a number of protocols for depression, anxiety, OCD, as well as relationship and other traumas.
