I am a relational and systems-oriented therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families. My work focuses on helping people understand the patterns that shape how they relate to others and to themselves. I believe the relationship we develop with ourselves is foundational, and that many experiences such as anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm,
and disconnection are rooted in adaptations that once served an important purpose.
I work with thoughtful, capable individuals who are ready to better understand themselves andcreate meaningful change. Together, we explore the emotional, relational, and contextual factors influencing your present experience, and work toward greater clarity, stability, and self-
trust.
I specialize in couples and family work, supporting clients in strengthening communication, rebuilding trust, and navigating relational challenges with greater understanding. I also work with individuals seeking to address anxiety, perfectionism, identity questions, and life
transitions, or who want to develop a more grounded and supportive relationship with themselves.
My approach integrates Emotion-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I offer a steady, respectful space where meaningful insight and lasting change can occur.

I have been working in the court system since 1993. I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 1999 and was licensed as a psychologist in 2000. Regular training with the American Academy of Forensic Psychology helps keep my skills up to date. Evaluations I complete for the court include Child Custody and Psychological, Specific Forensic Psychological, Fitness to Stand Trial, and Criminal Responsibility. FOID reinstatement evaluations as well as those for DCFS are also completed by me. I complete evaluations in several county courts including Boone, DeKalb, Kane, Kendall, Lee, Ogle, Whiteside, and Winnebago. Pre-employment, fitness for duty, and promotional examinations are also completed for local police and fire departments. Fitness for duty evaluations are also completed for local companies. Braden Counseling Center opened in 2002 and has been providing services to individuals with different challenges with evidence-based treatments since that time.

I am a retired Nurse Practitioner after twenty-five years of practice. My background was private practice until fifteen years ago, when I began to specialize in weight loss. I absolutely love this field. I believe in the wellness perspective: Self love, a healthy relationship with food and relationships, stress management through meditation and exercise, sleep, all of it. My biggest job is to keep clients motivated to continue their weight loss journey. I added hypnotherapy to my practice five years ago just for this reason. I can honestly say that I love showing up for work every day and having amazing client conversations about losing weight and empowering clients to walk the walk.
