Therapists in Cedar Hill, MO

Reach out today to learn ways to heal from negative thought loops, trauma, and anxious feelings. If worksheets and traditional talk therapy hasn't provided healing in the past (or you just hated it), I may be the right therapist for you. Counseling with me focuses on healing from trauma and goes beyond daily problem solving.

My hope is to be a first step in overcoming feelings of isolation and loneliness. If your world has been turned upside-down, either from the loss of a loved one or life's hardships, let's connect. Learning how to trust and practice new life skills are foundational in moving forward in relationships.

I know you're having a hard time, or you wouldn't be scrolling through these listings. Maybe you're feeling depressed, anxious, or just struggling to make sense of what's going on internally. Maybe you find yourself wanting to make a change in your life and you don't know where to begin to do that! Maybe you're struggling with the relationships in your life. The great news is, you don't have to do this alone! With some support (and a little humor), we can navigate this together.

I believe people are more than their diagnosis. Yes, a diagnosis is a tool but it is not the big picture. I come from a place of curiosity and wonder, wanting to know my clients on a deeper level so that I can help them navigate this world. For example, PTSD is a big diagnosis that is thrown around; yet, it doesn't paint the full picture. It doesn't reflect someone's experiences, triggers, how this is impacting their relationships, family history, the strengths they possess etc. Adolescents are my passion however, I also enjoy and work closely with families and adults.

I went into the field of psychology because I love helping people transform to the best version of themselves. We all need a safe place to understand ourselves and how we relate to others/self. I often say "We need to be Mindful of our Total-Well Being and that our minds and our bodies are an inter-connected systems. Where the mind goes, so does the man or woman in their actions and body states. We go to the physician for our physical health, so how much healthier would we be if we went to our psychologist for our mental health?" At heart, I am a holistic practitioner and love seeing my clients Thrive.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who approaches work with adults through a Psychodynamic, Trauma- Informed lens. I view symptoms as expressions of unconscious conflicts and painful core beliefs that need to be compassionately understood and metabolized in order to achieve therapy goals. When we understand and learn to love ourselves, we gain access to choices about who we are and how we want to live that we never thought possible. It is an honor for me to accompany people on this journey.

It feels like you're no longer connecting or not connecting in a way that feels fulfilling with yourself or your partner(s). You feel you have said everything you can to help the other person understand your needs and wants with hope that something will change. You don't know how it's gotten so painful. It's starting to feel a little helpless that you'll be able to have the connection you once hoped.
