Therapists in Kansas
We all carry a lot inside that others may not realize. I have personally experienced the power and hope that comes from having someone to come alongside and listen. I provide a safe space for my clients to express emotions and words as they work out life's challenges. I approach therapy from an individual and whole-person approach, looking at health from an emotional, physical, spiritual, social, and mental perspective. My Christian faith has been an integral part of my own healing, and I enjoy helping clients integrate their spirituality into the therapeutic work, if desired.

No one should have to face life's challenges alone. I have worked with teens and adults who have experienced sexual violence and other forms of trauma. I spent my graduate studies working with children, teens, and young adults in crisis alongside seeing elementary-aged students in the school setting. If you're feeling "stuck" after experiencing a challenging life event, finding yourself struggling to keep up with daily life stressors like school and work, or feeling overwhelmed by your thoughts and emotions, I'm here to help.

I believe everyone alive deserves to have the best possible life. All of us suffer from the trial and tribulations of life, some of which we bring on ourselves, and some are consequences of others behaviors. All of us learn important lessons from life, and I believe that psychotherapy helps people to gain significant insight and awareness on the most important dimensions of their mental functioning. Many of us suffer alone in the depths of loneliness and despair. It is my mission to help and guide others with knowledge, and encouragement to confront their situations, and problems. I

Asking for help can be very overwhelming. You're not alone. Many people feel overloaded by emotions, their past, relationships, family etc. Why people come to therapy varies for each individual; the end result is often the same. They feel better. It is courageous to ask for help. Courage to take the control back , eliminate the things that are causing you pain. Therapy is a place for personal healing, growth and discovery. If you are reading this then you have already taken the first step to making changes. You are the narrator of your story; the ending is up to you.

I believe that we all reach places in our lives where we are learning, unlearning and possibly relearning the existential areas of: who am I, what do I want, and what are my barriers & blind spots? Some may need support identifying or answering these questions cause they can be overwhelming. We often develop limitations in efforts to cope with grief, stress, control, hurt & relationships. So do you wonder,"What might be getting in my way or holding me back?", or "What I am avoiding?" or "Do I want to be more effective in my relationship?" Therapy can support you when you are answering these incredibly rich questions for yourself.
