Alicia Rowley is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) working with clients and consultees in Illinois and Iowa. She first trained in EMDR® in 2016 and is now an EMDRIA Certified Counselor and EMDRIA Approved Consultant.
Alicia started her clinical career in 2010 as a CADC counselor in outpatient and residential substance abuse treatment. She earned her MS at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, and runs a private practice focused on addiction, adult children of alcoholic families, attachment-based trauma, and trauma-related disorders. Her EMDR training is extensive: addiction protocols, somatic disorders, toxic shame, the Jim Knipe EMDR Toolbox, Ego State therapy, and dissociation.

Beyond her client work, Alicia provides individual and group EMDR consultation. Her hope is to help therapists find their own rhythm with the approach.
