Therapists in Labadie, 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.

I look forward to helping my clients develop the skills they need to improve their life for the better. I encourage my clients to dig deep into their own meaning of life and what their purpose is.

In the journey of life, we all encounter moments of change and loss that can leave us feeling adrift in a sea of uncertainty. My specialties lie in providing a guiding light during these times of change, helping individuals find solace and hope in the midst of their deepest disappointments.

This approach uses science and psychotherapy to assist clients to find their own power to cope, change behaviors, and most importantly, heal.

Hi there, I am here to help you. I work with individuals, couples, and families with struggles ranging from current life issues, relationship struggles, and issues that have been a lifelong battle. Clients often come to me because they have hit the lowest point and have never felt more alone, even after trying therapy countless times before. Many clients have left counseling finding resolution and a drive to live their life to the fullest. My clients have expressed finding healing, feeling equipped to manage life, and having healthier relationships and connections with others that they previously thought weren't possible.

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 particularly good fit for clients who tend to intellectualize their problems and who are uncomfortable/unaccustomed to tapping into their emotions. I am a more interactive therapist.

I am patient and I will not push you into going deeper than you feel comfortable with at the moment. I know that change and trust are slow processes and I will respect your ability to set the pace of your own therapy.
