Domestic Abuse Therapists in Saint Louis, MO
In Psychotherapy, it is the relationship between the patient and the therapist that allows for the patient to search for understanding into the nature of their difficulties. It is within the safety, confidentiality and understanding acceptance that the patient is encouraged to reveal intimate parts of themselves that allow the therapist to identify characteristic problems and patterns of behavior. Seemingly unexplainable behavior, thought patterns and symptoms turn out to have identifiable meanings beyond the awareness of the patient. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is aimed at personality changing goals and symptom relieving efforts. The patient is always in control of the therapeutic process.

People start to heal the moment they feel heard, and everyone has a story to tell. As your (or your teen's) therapist, I'll support you as you heal from your past and present, gain personal insight, release what no longer serves you, grow in your relationships, forgive yourself or others, embrace your authenticity, explore your purpose, claim your power, find your harmony and thrive. I will meet you where you are, provide a safe space for your unique story, and walk the journey with you. I'm passionate about helping teens and adults become more authentic, grounded versions of themselves.

Everyone deserves to have a place where they can just let it all out and not care one bit what the person across from them thinks. Clients often come to me with insecurities, low self-esteem, battling with depression, simply feeling beat up by life. I work to provide individuals, families and couples with a safe, confidential and empathetic environment where they can feel comfortable telling their truth. I am passionate about helping individuals identify the barriers preventing them from finding their life’s purpose and achieving goals they set for themselves. The therapeutic process is very difficult, as it presents many unknowns.

Therapy is a tool that has the potential to help you better manage a range of issues. Maybe you find yourself feeling so sad or anxious that it's taking the fun out of your life. Maybe your best just never feels good enough. Or you’re feeling depressed, lonely or angry and using a substance to cope. Maybe you've experienced trauma or abuse and you're struggling to move beyond the anger and pain. Or maybe you just feel like you need to talk to someone. If any of these describes you, let’s talk. I understand that seeking a consultation can feel overwhelming but while therapy can be hard work, it can also be very rewarding!

I’ve been journeying with people through their stories for over 20 years, most recently as a trauma-informed mental health therapist with specialties in EMDR, CBT, IFS, person-centered therapy, and spiritual abuse recovery.
Just as physical therapy retrains and strengthens one’s body, mental health therapy retrains and strengthens one’s mind, emotions, and relationships. It has the potential to empower, enlighten, and encourage. Whether facing depression or a relational concern, or if you’re looking for balance and peace or need to deal with the effects of trauma or abuse, including spiritual/religious abuse, the first step is to know that you matter enough to take care of YOU. As a therapist, I come alongside. I walk with. I reframe. I do not judge or shame. You are enough. You are whole. You are worth it.
