People need different things in their lives and when they come to therapy they can expect a calm, quiet atmosphere and a place where they can express themselves in ways that they may have never felt safe enough to do so. There are so many challenges in life and individuals should take pride in recognizing that it takes strength to reach out for guidance.

My ideal client is a woman who is looking to have greater, more holistic health in their life. They are maybe struggling with limiting beliefs or self-esteem issues that they know that, if resolved, would help them to establish a more firm footing in life and be able to navigate life's challenges with greater ease. They would be energized and ready for change and willing to take on the challenge of improving self-care from a holistic perspective.

We are all just walking each other home in a timeline vibe of uncertain and chaotic. I bring a deep love (and nerdiness) for how we become - while honoring that you know yourself best. My work centers on returning to the safety of self, finding relief, vulnerability, agency, and trust in your authenticity. I’m a late-diagnosed ADHD’er and work with trauma, anxiety, ADHD/AuDHD, moral injury, peri-menopause and religious/spiritual trauma/wounding. I primarily support women, non-binary, and neurodivergent adults, through a culturally affirmative, anti-oppressive, trauma-informed lens. Licensed in MO & KS. I’m here to walk with you.

Let's talk... When life feels out of your personal balance, I am here to help you find solutions that work for you. My time is your time. We'll work together to gain clarity and find self-compassion during this life of non-linear ebbs and flows. We can unlock your innate capacity for growth, wholeness, and transformation. I look forward to connecting with and supporting you in accessing your well-being.

I help new parents and new adults get unstuck from a life of disconnection. Maybe you feel guilty for wanting more. Don't you already have the job, the partner, maybe kids? Even still, the edges are starting to fray and you don't feel connected to yourself and others in the ways you want. The self-help books, podcasts, and the mindfulness apps help, but there is still something missing.

Sometimes the experiences we carry—whether from relationships, family dynamics, or past events—can leave us feeling anxious, disconnected, or unsure of ourselves. Therapy can be a place to not only grow in a deeper understanding of yourself, but also begin to heal.

I have experience helping children, teens, and adults find their way through difficult times. Perhaps you have overwhelming feelings of hopelessness, anger, anxiety, or confusion, or are going through major changes in your relationship, work, or school life. Perhaps you feel stuck and simply want to live more authentically. As we explore together, you can feel better, avoid old pitfalls, and work toward your goals. I'm comfortable with people of diverse cultures, sexualities, and ages.

Many of the people I work with appear strong and capable on the outside while privately carrying trauma, grief or memories of experiences that few people know about. I often work with individuals who have lived through profound loss, suicide loss, traumatic events, or chaotic environments, yet have built thoughtful and capable lives. Over time, unresolved grief or complex trauma can surface as depression, emotional numbness, exhaustion, or a sense that something inside still hasn’t settled. Therapy can offer a place where the weight you’ve been carrying no longer has to remain as a heaviness or affecting your growth and happiness.

Hi, I'm Mandy! Life can be a lot to handle on your own, and I'm here to help. I tend to be a good fit for clients looking for a space to process/organize their thoughts and feelings, or those seeking a more informal therapeutic experience. I view therapy as a partnership, and while I've got some tips and tricks to help you start feeling more in control and less stressed, you are the expert on you. We'll work at your pace, talking through the things you feel are most important - and it's okay if that's not the same thing from week to week. Healing isn't linear; we'll celebrate your successes no matter how big or small!
