Therapists in Missouri

Soy terapeuta profesional multicultural y bilingüe, especializada en trastornos de ansiedad y trauma (o estrés postraumático). Ofrezco mis servicios de terapia psicologica a adolescentes y adultos. Tambien trabajo con niños, pero al momento solo puedo ofrecer terapia online y es dificil con los niños menores de 12 años.

Si tienes problemas en tu relación, estás luchando contra la soledad de los múltiples problemas que hemos enfrentado el último año (pandemia, duelo, trauma) o simplemente necesitas procesar algunas situaciones con alguien de fuera, creo que la relación terapeútica puede ser una plataforma para transformación profunda y crecimiento contínuo.

¿Sufres en silencio o tienes dificultades con tus relaciones interpersonales? Sepa que hay esperanza. Todos hemos experimentado un dolor que, si no se trata, puede mantenernos atrapados, inhibiendo nuestra capacidad para disfrutar de la vida y conectarnos genuinamente con los demás. Hay tres áreas que yo valoro mucho: los niños que han sufrido dificultades, las mujeres que tienen dificultades para atravesar las etapas de la vida y las víctimas o sobrevivientes y mujeres que han sufrido trauma por infidelidad, y traición atravez de abuso sexual, emocional o fisico.

Cuando busqué la terapia por primera vez, esperaba que la terapia me ayudara a arreglar lo que estaba mal conmigo. A través de mi viaje curativo y entrenamiento profesional encontré un lugar de partida diferente. Nadie necesita ser arreglado; necesitamos volver a aprender a amarnos a nosotros mismos.

Soy competente en español, pero lo siento, no estoy ofreciendo servicios de terapia en español en este momento. Puedo comunicarme un poco con las familias de los clientes cuando es necesario o útil, y tengo mucha experiencia trabajando con personas y familias latinas.

La vida es hermosa y esta llena de desafíos. No tienes que enfrentar estos desafíos solo. A veces, simplemente tener a alguien que se siente contigo puede tener un gran impacto. Me encantaría tener la oportunidad de ser la persona que se siente a tu lado o camine junto a ti en este camino.

We all have strengths to build on and opportunities for growth and change. Counseling can be a helpful tool to work toward whatever goals you have or obstacles you may be facing. I am passionate about working with children and families. My goal is for children to feel confident in who they are and what they can do. I also work to build up families to grow closer and stronger together. I have seen how counseling can be a powerful tool in creating positive change for anyone.

No matter how hard you try, you feel like you aren't good enough. You are trying so hard to figure out how to make everything fall into place, but you just can’t find the solution. You try to be everything to everyone, but there is a part of you that knows this really isn’t working. You are scared there might be something wrong with you. You are ready for relief; you just really want life to feel easier. Yet, you aren’t sure if that is possible, or how others would react if you did change. You want a therapist who can provide a shelter of calm, and who knows a path to transformation.

Are you ready to set healthy boundaries in your relationships? Have you been wanting to explore your sexuality but didn't know where to start? Is your non-monogamous relationship experiencing friction? Maybe you are the survivor, strong friend, and problem solver who appears to have it all together. Yet on the inside you feel overwhelmed while also wondering, "Is this worth going to therapy for?" If your boundaries leave you questioning yourself, if you want to explore your sexuality, or if you and your partner(s) want support, it's worth going to therapy for. Our relationship, sexuality, and trauma experts are here for you.

I hold two fundamental beliefs about all humans; firstly, I believe every individual is infinitely unique. Secondly, I think every person can grow and be better than they are today. I believe my job is to help you find the tools and resources you need to continue growing. My favorite aspect of therapy is that it can be tailored to individuals' authentic thoughts, feelings, experiences, needs, or desires.

People seek therapy for variety of reasons, ranging from difficulties with a specific life event or a general pursuit for greater purpose and connectedness. Psychotherapy offers an arena for self exploration unlike any other and can prove to be a profoundly moving experience. I work with individuals affected by trauma, difficulties in relationships, depression/post-partum depression, infertility, adoption, parenting, struggles in cultural adaptation and immigration, identity, self-esteem, sexuality, etc. Often I find that the most meaningful change comes from those who are open and willing to engage in the journey. The change you seek comes from you and will be our guiding force.

Our patients are individuals, couples or groups who have been struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorder and other behavioral challenges that have made ordinary day to day functioning impossible or extremely difficult. Through evidence-based clinical mental health therapy that includes EMDR, CBT, DBT, and SFBT, we assess, and diagnose individuals, couples and groups providing evidenced-based treatment plans.

Sometimes, even when we know that something is wrong, we still need guidance in order to disentangle the problems that cause us suffering. Every problem has a solution and every difficult period can have a peaceful resolution. My therapeutic approach primarily stems from Family Systems Theory. I focus on emotional independence through individuation and help individuals, couples and families gain additional growth, strengths, and insights into their lives. I work on reducing negative communication patterns and installing love as an attachment bond.

I work with kids of all ages, parents, and families.

I am passionate about providing healing and supportive counseling services to my Clients. I provide individual, family, and couples counseling. My focus is on working with people who experience symptoms of PTSD, gender dysphoria, depression, anxiety, LGBT Issues, behavior disorders, and adjustment to life's ever changing stresses. Each person is unique w/ their own individual biology and environmental experiences. Therefore, therapy is individually tailored to each Clients unique circumstances. I offer face to face counseling and Telehealth where appropriate. BDSM, Poly affirmative.

What if you could wake up tomorrow and finally feel better? What if you were living the life you truly desired? Therapy allows us to find real solutions to our greatest challenges. Perhaps your relationship or marriage is in a rut, your anxiety has left you paralyzed and fearful, or your depression has kept you in bed for weeks. Whatever your struggle is, I am here to offer a warm, helping hand so that we can help you get back to living your life. I seek to provide a safe space to work through your complex and unique challenges to foster lasting transformation. You weren't meant to merely survive, but to thrive.

The clients I serve are often at a crossroads in their life story and unsure of how to close one chapter and begin anew. Clients I enjoy working with recognize that counseling continues outside of the session in self reflection, exploring behavior change, and shifting how we think and relate to ourselves. I find that counseling helps meet goals and needs as diverse as the client, and sometimes goals arise throughout the course of the relationship. No one needs a "good reason" to come to counseling, for the desire to reach out and try will always be sufficient.

Are you a new parent? Or did you recently have a life transition such as new city, new job, new relationship? Do you struggle with managing your mood or anxiety during this life transition? Are you ready for a change in your day-to-day life? By partnering with me, as your therapist, we will focus on learning how to engage in healthy coping strategies during this vulnerable time, how to manage our mood throughout our new circumstances, and build healthy relationships with our support system. Through a strength-based approach, I will empower you to navigate these changes and have improved satisfaction in the circumstances of life.
