I know what it's like to feel stuck.

You know something needs to change- because you've been carrying all this guilt around for too long without any support. Maybe you've considered giving up a time or two- and that's why you're here. Either way, you're exhausted. And that makes sense.

​

If you're looking for a therapist who specializes in working with individuals who experienced hurt due to relational wounds, you're in the right place.

Many of the clients I work with struggle with complex attachment wounds, religious trauma and perfectionism disguised as strength. I work alongside my clients to address the root of the overwhelm and shame by offering intensive EMDR (for private-pay only), IFS-informed, holistic self-love practices and person-centered psychology that leads to experiencing true empowerment and connection to your intuition.

​

I pull from eclectic modalities (always blending empirically supported treatment with evidence-based psychotherapy) because I know that healing is not a one size fits all. My goal is to meet you in the middle of your hurt with genuine connection, curiosity and attunement. Once you feel fully understood, we explore treatment options such as CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, and even spiritual practices (such as crystal-work, tarot symbolism, dream interpretation) when clinically appropriate.

My sessions are personalized and flexible, and they can be held in person in Collinsville, Illinois or virtually across Illinois and Missouri. Together, we use the tools available that best suit your needs and personality.

My clients describe our work as safe, empowering, and transformative, and I think that’s because in my office, therapy is about remembering who you really are beneath the pain and growing in the ability to express your full, unique, and authentic self without judgment or criticism.

If you think I’m the right fit for what you’re looking for, send me a message and let’s chat. If the fit isn’t right, I’ll support you in finding a better solution for you.

I offer a limited number of insurance spots for practice sustainability. Insurance-based clients are accepted under insurance constraints, which may limit certain modalities, and requires a formal mental health diagnosis and prescriptive treatment plan. ​
