We are all whole and more resilient than we believe, but we can forget this at times. Effective therapy demands deep compassion, understanding, and strong guidance. Most of us need performance-based, solutions-focused therapy. Most of us benefit from increased personal accountability. Trauma reactions, anxiety, compulsions, depression and addictions are all forms of communication. You deserve help in decoding these problematic responses and learning better, more adaptive solutions to life's challenges. I'm prepared to help.

I believe that change occurs when we are met with compassion, deep listening and provided with a sense of hope. I focus specifically on traumatic grief with an understanding there is no wrong way to feel, no timeline or expectations. My approach is individualized and draws upon several interventions such as the ATTEND Model, mindfulness and CBT. I come from a trauma-informed perspective and believe that each person's experience is unique with their own strengths to be utilized. Many of my clients have lost loved ones due to suicide, homicide, accidental deaths, medical malpractice, unresolved deaths and long term illnesses.

Good thought management and effective emotion regulation leads to better decision making and that leads to a confident, self assured outlook on life. I am licensed as a professional counselor in both Missouri and Kansas.

Intervention Therapists
How does an intervention work?
An intervention is a planned, structured meeting in which a person’s family or friends voice concerns about the person’s behavior and its consequences; the goal is for the person to accept treatment. In this meeting, the person’s loved ones (often with the guidance of a trained interventionist) share how the person’s behavior has harmed them and the consequences if the person refuses treatment. They collectively ask the person to accept a proposed treatment plan.
How effective are interventions?
There isn’t extensive research on the efficacy of interventions, in part because success is difficult to measure. Individuals often enter addiction treatment after an intervention, for example, but treatment itself may not work, especially if the person only begins due to external pressure from others rather than due to internal motivation to change. However, if all other attempts at helping someone have failed, an intervention may be worth exploring.
What are the limitations of interventions?
While a friend or family member’s intentions are in the right place in wanting to help a loved one through an intervention, there are significant limitations to the approach. The surprising nature of the event can make the person feel ambushed or judged. They may feel embarrassed or ashamed as a result, and relationships may be strained or broken. This can make it difficult for the individual to be receptive to the concerns of their loved ones and the interventionist.
Are there alternatives to interventions?
Rather than confronting a loved one through an intervention, an effective and less pressured approach is to create space for a caring, open, one-on-one conversation. This works best if the loved one asks open-ended questions, listens attentively to the answers, and frames their observations and statements with concern rather than judgment. More than one conversation may be needed, but change can take root over time.
