Do you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, or depressed? I work with individuals to develop skills to enhance their ability to cope with stressors, manage their symptoms of mental illness, and find healthier ways to balance life’s needs. I am passionate about empowering the strengths and supporting the goals of the individuals I serve. I utilize a trauma-informed, strengths-based, holistic approach to counseling to focus treatment on your entire self rather than only addressing the symptoms you may be currently experiencing.

Do you find yourself feeling lost or confused about who you are? Maybe you're struggling to thrive or even to cope as the world changes around you. Identity struggles, grief, relational challenges, traumatic experiences, health changes, spiritual crises, and other naturally occurring stressors are all potential sources of anxiety that can alter the way we think and feel about ourselves and others in our present moment and moving forward. As a trauma-informed practitioner, I approach each relationship with a person-centered focus, operating holistically through the lens of trauma-informed care, recognizing you as a unique individual.

I have a Master's in Psychology (Southern Illinois University Edwardsville) and a Master's in Social Work (University of Kansas, Lawrence.) I have been licensed as a Clinical Social Worker for over 30 years, so I have a lot of experience. I have many "tools in my toolkit." I believe in people and enjoy helping them discover the strengths they have. I also enjoy teaching strategies that can help reduce stress reactions. What we think and tell ourselves is important, but we are not just what we think. Being integrative, I treat people holistically.

Counseling as a whole is perhaps needed now more than ever. We've seen rising prices for things in Missouri and across the US, horrible things happening in the Ukraine, in Israel, and of course, there is the pandemic we went through that affected literally everyone in the world. Even without these things, life brings its challenges, but add the stressors we've all been through for over 4 years now, in addition to the more recent problems we're facing, and it only makes sense that many people just like you will benefit from additional support and professional help in processing through life's difficulties.

Mental health challenges are at an all time high due to the chronic stress and anxiety that's resulted from enduring a pandemic, but also because of the ongoing pressure we put on ourselves to get it all right no matter what. We often try to maintain a pace that's not sustainable and then end up burning out/ getting overwhelmed/ and ultimately feeling paralyzed not feeling motivated or knowing what to do next. This is where my support as a therapist and life coach comes in very handy. A new way of thinking and doing things is possible.
