My approach to therapy includes listening with compassion and without judgment and then helping clients to find the best way for them to move forward. Sometimes just talking about things helps a person to gain insight. Other times the individual may need to learn some new skills or make some changes in their thought process or behavior.

I have worked in early intervention services for children with autism spectrum disorder in their home/community settings, as well as with adults with intellectual disabilities. In addition to this, I have served children and adults in residential/school settings who exhibit severe problem behaviors that are a barrier to their inclusion in less restrictive environments with the ultimate goal of increasing independence and teaching skills that would enable them to move back into the community. My current passion is expanding services in Southeast Kansas and preventing the need for day schools/institutionalization in the first place.

Feeling comfortable and safe with a therapist is an important part of beginning the healing process. It can be difficult to find someone you trust during traumatic or uncertain times in your life. I have successfully treated couples, individuals, children, and families with a variety of presenting problems, and have also been trained in play therapy, sand tray therapy, EMDR, AUTPlay and Brain Gym. I utilize strength-based approaches and offer hope when hope is hard to find.

Are you an empath who struggles with feeling like “too much” and “not enough” at the same time? Setting boundaries feels impossible. Guilt is an uncomfortably familiar feeling you just can’t shake. Masking your emotions has become second nature. Growing up, you had to be a mini adult in your family and got really good at masking how you feel. Maybe you’ve recently reconnected with your Inner Badass and set some big boundaries with family or friends. Now what? Instead of feeling empowered after cutting out that toxic family member, you feel empty, anxious, and full of doubts. You want to break the cycle, but have no idea how.

When healthcare providers in the community refer clients to me, it is most often for anxiety or for support during difficult life changes like divorce, moving, transition into adulthood or back to independent life after a life-altering illness.
Whether your goal is to become more productive, to find more meaning and purpose in life, to reduce emotional reactivity, or to gain some control over the symptoms of a mental illness, change is possible, and counseling can help. My approach is individualized for each client, but I often employ Internal Family Systems-informed therapy, mindfulness, existential, trauma-informed, and solution-focused approaches. I work with individuals, families, and groups.

Maybe the depression and anxiety will always be there but it does not have to dictate our lives.
We think we have our life figured out and then boom, we have no idea what we are doing. Where we are going. Or why we are doing what we are doing. We feel lost and have no idea why. We start to question our decisions in life. And wonder, is this it? Is there more? There has to be more. It does not matter if you are 16, 25, 45 or 65. Depression and anxiety may settle in and that can suck.

Life can be tough! Do you feel like you had it all together & then someone pulled the rug from under you? Maybe you have previously experienced trauma & thought you moved past it. Now you find yourself feeling frustrated, isolated, & alone. Maybe you are finding yourself triggered by your kids, partner, parents, or friends. You love them, but the stressors have caused you to want to take a month-long vacation from them! You have tried dealing with your anxiety, anger, stress, all on your own but find yourself struggling to manage day to day responsibilities and stay afloat - yelling too much, working too much.

Maybe you're over-functioning, or maybe you can hardly get out of bed in the morning. Your past seems to have this unshakable hold on you—leaving you feeling anxious, down, angry, guilty, shameful, numb, or hopeless. There's a sense of disappointment and embarrassment that you haven't figured this out on your own. Those dark humor memes on social media are super relatable. Ever think that maybe feeling terrible shouldn't be relatable?

Anxiety Therapists
What are the most common treatments for anxiety?
Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.
How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?
The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.
When should I seek treatment for anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.
How effective is treatment for anxiety?
Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
