Therapy is a powerful form of treatment that can be used to make personal improvements while gaining awareness and creating change. I believe we are all working through struggles and obstacles in our lives. Sometimes a little guidance is needed to get to the place we want to be and work to achieve happiness. As a licensed therapist, I am here to not only listen but assist in creating change and making improvements in the lives of others. I strive to create a calm, safe atmosphere and use a non-judgmental, modern approach when providing services.

I am passionate about helping people who struggle with anxiety, addiction, developmental trauma, depression, and relational issues. At the core of my approach is an attitude of warmth, acceptance, and faith in my client's innate capacity for healing and transformation. Often people come to therapy with a sense of disempowerment. The impulse to reach out in hope of finding a caring, safe, or 'true other' shows your innate wisdom and strength. We are all in desperate need of help and connection. The implicit hope is that you can do more than just survive.

Now offering 3 free sessions to those impacted by the KC Chiefs Parade shooting and subsequent sessions at a reduced rate for those wanting to work on the trauma. TF-CBT, CPT I help those on their search for self exploration, and treating trauma. With EMDR you are in total control of reprocessing your traumatic/disturbing experience. You don’t even have to disclose about the event if you don’t want to. Taking the first step can be scary but therapy is a place of safety, a place to have your thoughts and feelings heard and validated. A place where you are in control of what you want the conversation to be and what direction you take.
