Most of my patients describe sessions with me as "effective." Yes, I'll sit and listen, empathize, and you'll know I genuinely care about you and your life. But you'll also probably hear things from me that others may not be willing to tell you. Why? Because I want to see you live the life you are capable of and unlocking many of those interactions helps with that process! I generally use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. They are both great types of therapy that focus on behavioral strategies for change after examination of your thinking.

Congratulations! Take the opportunity to discover results which improve your life. You have found a flexible and down to earth therapist willing to work towards your goals.Sometimes you need 1 session or several sessions to reboot, re-energize and get back on track. I personally understand the many facets and stressor's which make life more difficult but nothing is unmanageable. For additional convenience, I offer HIPPA compliant Teletherapy services via internet access.

Therapy is a creative partnership. I bring to it compassion, 23 years of experience, and extensive skills in working with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, grief and loss, adjustment disorders, and family dynamics. I believe managing life's challenges and transitions is most effective through helping clients utilize their own inner strengths and resources to change their thinking and behaviors. Through the pandemic, I came to believe that working virtually provides a variety of therapeutic advantages such as allowing the client to participate from his or her own comfortable space and without geographic limitations.

Most people go through periods when they need extra support and guidance. I care about you and helping you to move beyond the difficulties you are currently facing. I provide therapy in a safe, unbiased, and nonjudgmental environment. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Kansas. I have a MS in Counseling Psychology, a graduate certification in Child and Adolescent Psychology from Avila University, and a BS in Developmental Psychology from the University of Kansas. I work with all age groups and specialize in Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment disorders, and Trauma.

My therapeutic style is collaborative, working with clients to tailor therapy services to their specific goals and needs. I specialize in working with children (5+), teens, and young adults in the following areas: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, life changes, relationship building, boundary setting, and behavioral & academic concerns. I utilize a variety of modalities when working with clients including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SBFT), and Play Therapy.

I am a holistic and somatic therapist. There are times in life where we get stuck; locked in traumas of the past, or fearful of things to come. Our body tells us we’re on the wrong path through anxiety, disordered eating, conflict in our relationships, GI problems, and other adverse symptoms. In therapy, I help you discover what your body is telling you. Through Somatic Experiencing, you’ll learn how to heal the intensity of your experience of past events that keeps you feeling overwhelmed and settle your nervous system in the here and now. For those seeking nutritional psychology this is used to improve anxiety & other symptoms.

As someone who is grieving or suffering through a life transition, you often find yourself wondering will I feel better, can I feel better? It seems like you’ve tried everything but nothing seems to work, at least not for very long. Imagine what it would feel like to move forward, what would it be like if your life wasn’t controlled by your pain? A life transition can be planned or unplanned, positive or negative. They may be dramatic as in accidents, death, divorce, job loss or serious illness or can come from positive experiences such as getting married, going away to college, starting a new job, moving away or giving birth.

So, here you are looking for some help. Well done--as it is often a challenge, beginning to look for options/help. It is no small task getting beyond where you are, and then moving toward what you want. Sorting it all out can feel overwhelming, just like actually making that first call to a therapist. I applaud your courage and wisdom in sorting it out and in seeking assistance. I would love to be a part of helping you discover this process, and to share some of your upcoming journey. When you are ready, please give me a call. I am right here.

You want to improve your relationship without spending months in therapy. You want to make significant changes with a therapist to whom you feel a connection. You wish you could be content, happy, engaged, and connected with your partner like you used to be. Perhaps porn or infidelity has devastated your relationship. Or, you feel unhappy, disconnected, stuck, and hopeless in other ways. Maybe you're experiencing conflict resolution difficulty, intimacy and sexuality issues, parenting disagreements, or financial conflicts. Gottman Therapy is the gold standard of couples therapy for a reseached-based reason.

Hi and welcome! For starters, reaching out for help isn’t easy, so if you’re here, I commend you. It takes courage and bravery to ask for help! I am a believer that relationships heal, but also realize that often our closest relationships can cause a lot of pain. If you’re dealing with past hurts, difficulty with trust, trying to measure up, and struggling to communicate, I am here to help. How we view ourselves, others, and the world influences how we navigate day to day life and can leave us feeling stressed, overwhelmed, sad, down, hopeless, and uncertain about the future.

There are times in life we all feel overwhelmed, trying to manage the intense symptoms of anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, and grief. Emotional pain can be so intense and debilitating that, at times, it can seem like it will never end. The truth is difficult times will pass and we can get through them if we let ourselves. I am here to help support you through these uncertain and stressful times. With all the latest news regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, everything feels so uncertain. We are all challenged in different ways through this and can feel very isolated and alone.

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) is a different and fun way to reach children, adolescents, transitional-age youth and adults without the stigma of talk therapy. EAP is an alternative therapeutic approach that addresses mental health concerns and everyday life challenges by teaming up with caring therapists and horses. This type of therapy often reflects clients' verbal and nonverbal strengths and incongruencies while enhancing personal growth and development. This experiential, holistic approach works well with solution-focused therapy (SFT) and other evidence-based treatment modalities, e.g., ACT, EMDR, and CBT.

I am a Licensed Psychologist who works with adolescents and adults with a variety of mental health issues and chronic health conditions. A primary focus of my practice is teaching women to advocate for themselves. I am currently providing tele-health for Kansas residents.

Sometimes life can be too much to handle by yourself. Seeking help is brave and if you are looking for a caring partner to make important changes in your life, I am here to help. Whether your struggle includes anxiety, depression, past trauma, emotional management, grief, substance use, difficulty in relationships or career issues we can find a way to wellness. The most important step in therapy is cultivating a trusting relationship between the therapist and the client. We will start by finding comfort in our sessions. We will seek to find the most effective therapeutic techniques that work for you.

No matter what has brought you to this place, change is possible. You may feel exhausted on the hamster wheel of anxiety or stuck in a pit of depression. You may be grieving a life that you used to know and struggling to find your new footing. You may just feel stagnant and in need of a fresh perspective. If therapy is the next right thing for you, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in uncovering the path forward as you discover more “next right things.”

My approach is to first listen, and then help clients find solutions that can work for them. I've been working with adults, teens, children, families and couples for over 25 years as a private-practice psychologist and a consultant for area school districts.

Families and individuals frequently seek out my services at times of transition or decision-making.
