Gardner, KS 66030
Therapy tends to be a process of change. Therefore, we have to understand how change happens. For me, change only happens as we gain a deeper understanding of what needs to be changed. Therapy then, becomes a process of exploring the events that have shaped us so that we can gain that deeper understanding. Once we have that deeper knowledge of the problem, we are better able to make decisions that will lead to positive change. It is my hope that you find the answers you are looking for and that somehow, I may assist you in the process.

As a counselor, I believe in the power of relationship and connection. Sometimes we get lost in seasons of disconnection - finding ourselves stuck in the same patterns that end in hurt, longing for meaningful relationships that somehow feel out of reach, or wrestling with who we are and what we want out of life. Many of us have lived through experiences in the past or are dealing with challenges in the present that leave us feeling exhausted and alone.

Life can feel overwhelming; many of us find ourselves juggling work, school, activities, meetings, appointments, household needs and so on. Especially when we're faced with a new stressor, or something traumatic, finding the right support can be even more stressful. As a board certified & registered clinical Art Therapist, I am specially trained to use art in a psychotherapeutic setting. I love working with kids, teens & young adults in my private practice as we navigate emotions such as anxiety and depression, growing our self-awareness, self-regulation & anything life has thrown at us, big or small.

My clients are sensitive, smart, and creative, but may find these strengths difficult to access and manage. As a result you may feel disconnected, anxious, and depressed. You may self medicate with alcohol, drugs, or food. I help people reconnect with themselves and use their strengths to build the lives they want and deserve.

I also make it a sincere priority to provide a welcoming space for the LGBTQIA community. My website presents a great deal of information about sexual therapy, simply because it is often omitted from healing..

You are allowed to go to therapy even if your life is perfect on paper. Therapy can be intimidating but it doesn’t have to be. I realize that no two people or situations are the same and as such I tailor my therapy to meet the specific needs of my clients. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression or trauma processing.
