My heart and passion has always been with helping others. I have knowledge in working with individuals, couples, and families facing life's challenges. I am skilled at assisting people with work stress, post-traumatic stress disorder, and traumatic loss through accident or violence. Many types of stress can move silently but painfully through our lives, I have the knowledge to introduce healthy coping skills, reduction of anxiety, and conflict resolution. During these times knowing who we are, caring for ourselves and others is more important than ever. I'm here for those living the daily effects of racial trauma.

Are you or your child/teen feeling extra anxious these days? It makes sense given that the last few years have brought challenges that we are all still trying to understand! Whether you're a young person, a parent or a seasoned adult, we all need to sit with someone who deeply cares and listens to our story and can help us work through the complexities of being human- no matter what your age is! I am here for you.

Do you feel seen? Do you feel heard? Do you feel you matter? Those are the ingredients that build connection. And connection is vitally important for our happiness. However, so often today that's exactly what we find is missing. And life can hand us things we don't know how to deal with. I'd love to work with you to help you build strategies that build connection between yourself and those you care about. I’m deeply moved by the work people do for repair and healing. Share your story with me. I will listen without judgement and with compassion for your struggle.

Life can be so busy, leaving you stressed, frustrated and discouraged. Perhaps you're feeling some loneliness also that may leave you wanting some help and support! There's hope in the midst of all of this and healing isn't far away! Discovering more about yourself and your personal strengths can be life changing! Working together, you will learn healthy and helpful coping skills, strategies and tools toward personal growth to utilize and turn to in your daily life! Together we will determine and form your goals, wants and needs and build a plan to best work towards them!

I am Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) in the states of Kansas and Missouri. In addition to being in private practice, I teach a graduate course at the University of Kansas as well as provide guidance and therapy skills to graduate level students at Friends University. I specialize in couples therapy and maternal mental health. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which I use with my in my trauma work.

I believe we all have the right to our own belief systems but often times sharing those with someone who is a complete stranger can be intimidating. I offer you a safe space to be YOU. I am a spiritual being that is open to embracing dialogue around non-traditional ways of thinking and believing. Because the client-therapist is an important relationship, my goal is to provide a high-quality service to you that includes quick and responsive communication as well as a huge library of resources to give you the tools you need for an action based and humanistic therapy process. I enjoy working with women and couples!
