Behavioral Medicine P.C

My passion is to help you through the process of self-discovery and empowerment with compassion and encouragement by providing you with the tools you need to create the life you truly want. My integrative approach to therapy honors the individuality of each person. The human experience varies based on each person’s history and one of my main goals is to meet you where you are. I want to walk with you on your healing journey. My experience of working with individuals with various traumas is what motivates me. I believe that being a part of someone’s healing is truly an honor.

​

I have a Master's degree in Arts majoring in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Judson University. I have numerous hours of continuing education beyond my degree with a focus on trauma.  I am a member of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network. I have completed EMDRI approved Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) training. I have Hospice Palliative Care Training and work experience. I also hold certification as a Sexual Assault Advocate through Rockford Sexual Assault. No matter what age or type of trauma you have endured, I am here to use my training and experience to help you heal.

​

I hold a deep belief in hope and possibility for healing for all. Combining my compassion, experience and the science behind Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Neurofeedback (NFB), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Retraining, Mindfulness and other evidenced modalities I believe we can find a combination of treatments that is right for you.
