Anxiety can cast a shadow over your ability to show up and engage in the world. It hinders personal growth and presents challenges in work, school, social situations, and relationships. It even has the power to perpetuate across generations—leaving a lasting impact on family dynamics. My focus centers on helping you identify factors contributing to anxiety and developing problem solving strategies to help you look at situations from new and less frightening perspectives. I will equip you with valuable tools to unapologetically live in your truth.

Working with older children, adolescents, adults, and couples, I strive to help you understand how your early caregiving experiences are impacting your current wellbeing and interpersonal functioning. My goal is to create a secure relationship where you can feel understood and valued and better understand yourself through our work together. In working with young children and their caregivers, I hope to help parents understand how their own parenting impacts their identity as a caregiver as well as helping them understand their child’s needs and develop a deeper connection.

I use an experiential and intuitive approach to help clients develop the best possible relationships with themselves and others.

Childhood trauma can cripple us, it creates overpowering ‘intense’ emotions such as anxiety, depression, and anger when l eft unattended which begins to create physical symptoms to defend our bodies from the internal wounds. Has there ever been a time in your life where you have experienced this reaction? Are you experiencing these feelings based on current or past trauma from childhood, early teens, adolescence, adulthood, or as a senior? I aim to utilize a variety of actionable techniques to help reduce trauma-related symptoms and make lasting changes in life.

You know the capital of Kansas, but you hesitate when you’re asked what you do for fun. We go through years of education, but we often don’t even know ourselves. All we do know is something feels off…we feel unfulfilled in our work, and our relationships feel draining. We’ve worked so hard to make those around us proud, we forgot to think about how we feel about ourselves. Let's change that. My goal is to provide a space free of distraction and judgement so we can explore the experiences and relationships in your life that shaped you and begin to figure out our own personal values and strengths.

Do you feel stuck in one or more aspects of your life? Perhaps you would like to feel more connection in your relationships and at work. Sometimes things may feel so overwhelming, we lose our direction, feel anxious, experience emotional and physical pain, and don't sleep well. It's easy to get caught up in the way we tell our story, shaping habits and patterns around the roles we play.

I view the role of therapy as learning to look at yourself and the world through a lens of curiosity. We'll create a space where you can sit alongside your emotions as they surface, while tuning into the wisdom of your body in real time. It's through this process that stories are unearthed and we can begin the work of self-discovery, healing, and transformation.
