About Jocelyn
I am licensed in Illinois, Missouri, and Texas, with over 11 years of experience in the mental health field. I am a Certified OCD Specialist and have received training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). I have extensive experience supporting clients who are navigating stress and anxiety, motivation challenges, self-esteem and confidence concerns, career difficulties, addiction, psychotic disorders, and depression.
I believe that you are the expert of your own story and that you possess many strengths that can help you overcome the challenges you face. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life, and taking that first step toward change is a powerful one. I am here to support and empower you on that journey.
