Hi! I'm Maggie.
I understand the search for a therapist can sometimes feel like an overwhelming task. We want to make sure we've selected someone we can trust - someone who gets it. I admire your courage in taking that first step today by learning more about my clinical approach, experience, and those ways in which we can work together.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, board Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor, and Certified in EMDR Therapy. I have additional training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a holistic therapeutic approach used to help build somatic awareness to understand and process past trauma held in the body.
Prior to starting my own private practice in Chicago, I gained extensive and diverse experience providing counseling services in schools, community mental health agencies, hospitals, and group private practice. Throughout my career, I have developed a specialized interest and focus in the treatment of PTSD and complex trauma, perfectionism, addiction and anxiety. I understand not all issues present the same, therefore I strive to personalize treatment to fit each individual's needs while maintaining an open, nonjudgmental, compassionate, and safe therapeutic space.
