About me
As a licensed therapist in Missouri and Kansas, I provide thoughtful, individualized care for adults navigating complex emotional and life challenges. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and mood-related concerns, offering a supportive and respectful environment where clients feel heard and understood.
My approach is grounded in each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and values. I am committed to helping individuals cultivate self-compassion, enhance communication skills, reduce social isolation, and explore meaning and purpose in their lives. I also work with clients facing workplace stress, relationship challenges, and significant life transitions.
Through the use of evidence-based therapeutic practices, I collaborate with clients to process difficult emotions, develop effective coping strategies, and foster lasting, meaningful change. My therapeutic style is both compassionate and goal-oriented, balancing emotional support with practical tools that clients can integrate into their daily lives.
I welcome individuals from all backgrounds, with particular specialization in mood disorders and grief and loss. I approach each therapeutic relationship with professionalism, empathy, and a genuine commitment to supporting clients in their healing, growth, and overall well-being.
