Croatian Therapists in Ellisville, MO

If you want a blunt and no sugar coating therapist look no further! Of course, I am honest with the intent of being kind and caring. The goal is to make the client a priority and implement self-care. Therapy is an investment and considered prevention for your own self-care needs. I have over 12 years experience, and worked in medical settings before that. I have experience in the medical health environment with a range of health issues from sufferers of heart attacks, stroke, women's & men's issues, and chronic illnesses. I implement an eclectic approach featuring CBT.

Have open availability for in-person and virtual sessions. Sliding scale and some Medicaid; can be weekly or every other week sessions. My goals are to give clients and their families tools, and offer genuine support in daily and/or lifelong struggles. My belief is that change is possible for anyone, but the client and their loved ones need to have an open mind, and believe in love and support. Getting out of your comfort zone is a guarantee, and therapy is the first step. Therapy helps us make changes that lead to lifelong healthy habits of self care and thriving personal relationships.

Have you ever felt like your life is an emotional roller coaster? I certainly have. Those rides can be thrilling at times, but can also leave you tense and terrified afterwards. Maybe you feel hopeless, mentally exhausted, stuck in your relationship, or overwhelmed with unwanted intrusive thoughts. Perhaps you’re unsatisfied with where you’re at in life and are unsure of how to move forward. It may be that you & your partner are emotionally drained from not knowing how to overcome challenges in your relationship. Whatever brought you here is valid & together we can develop a roadmap, find clarity, & deepen connection.

My approach to therapy is genuine and compassionate. My intention during our time together is to make you feel supported and to help you feel more connected with yourself, and guide you, without judgement, through whatever self-discovery journey you may be on. I believe in creating a space where you feel free to come as you are and feel supported...

The relationship between therapist and client is instrumental in helping a person achieve their goals. In the therapeutic relationship, clients have the opportunity to feel their full range of feelings and become understood in deep and meaningful ways. When someone matches with the right therapist, therapy can be a life-changing experience. Transgenerational patterns, attachment experiences, and core beliefs formed in early childhood play a major role in current mental health. I pay close attention to emotional language, thoughts, and somatic symptoms.
