Danni Stennett Kues, MSW, LCSW,
EMDR Certified Therapist

Are you feeling stuck or trapped with behaviors or thoughts that no longer serve you? Maybe you have seen a few therapists, talked endlessly about your trauma, learned coping skills, and you know in your mind that it’s over and in the past but your body still feels disconnected, on high alert, or both. I am certified in EMDR Therapy, a trauma-focused therapy that works with our brain’s natural capacity to digest difficult experiences that keep us stuck. Whether your lived experiences have led you to struggle with depression, emotional dysregulation, or relationship difficulties; I am here to carry it with you.

In the beginning, we will work together to tailor a plan for therapy that reflects your unique strengths, needs, and goals. Whether you would like to address the ways that your past shows up in your current relationships or in your relationship with yourself, I am committed to walking with you at your pace.

Earning your trust and fostering safety within our relationship is my top priority, as this is where the most profound healing happens. I also offer gender affirming care assessments, free of charge, for those seeking letters of support. I look forward to connecting with you. 

Clinical Areas of Interest

I work with clients living with all kinds of mental health concerns, and especially enjoy supporting clients struggling with:

• complex trauma/PTSD

• dissociation/dissociative systems (OSDD/DID)

• substance use recovery

• attachment wounds

• childhood sexual abuse

Professional Experiences

I earned a Master of Social Work from Saint Louis University in 2018. Prior to private practice, I worked in non-profit agencies providing crisis intervention and clinical support services to survivors of intimate partner violence, sexual violence, commercial sexual exploitation and trafficking. 

Over the past several years, I’ve completed multiple intensive trainings in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) focused on complex PTSD, dissociation, attachment and substance use recovery; Ego State/Parts Work; Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT); Sandplay; and suicide intervention. These training experiences allow me to tailor treatment to each individual's unique nervous system to support a holistic healing journey.
