Like the idea of talking to a therapist from the privacy of your home with no risk of running into someone you know? Would you like to save the time of driving to and from scheduled therapy appointments in an office? My therapy practice is 100% virtual. I see Kansas residents anywhere in the state and you will never need to go to an office. After years of providing traditional therapy, I am now semi retired and travel full time seeing my clients via teletherapy. You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, life transitions or maybe you're not even sure what is going on. You just know you are overwhelmed and struggling. I can help.

Do you feel unsure of who you are now? Perhaps you are going through a transition in your life and trying to understand how to get along. Maybe you feel like you aren’t yourself because of intense, persistent feelings of some kind. Maybe your past is dragging you down. Maybe your relationships at home, work, or in your community are not as satisfying as you wish they could be. You’re starting to think, you need an outside perspective; It’s hard to sort through this alone. These thoughts have got you asking, “Will psychotherapy help? Can it really change things? Is it worth it?”

Thank you for exploring services that can lead to self-discovery, greater mental, emotional, and physical well-being, as well as finding your place in our shared world. From two decades of studies and work experience, I am able to gift to my clients many methods and models that provide evidence-based understandings of how human emotions, thoughts, physical body systems, relationships, and behaviors overlap and interact with each other. I humbly offer this knowledge and experience to serve whatever presenting problems, life goals and dreams, and curiosities have brought you to exploring services in this area of your life.

My therapy & counseling are based on the life experiences and the philosophy of Viktor Frankl. His writings describe the kinds of the situation from which he and his fellow prisoners at Auschwitz were able, on a day-to-day basis, to extract the life-sustaining meaning that was essential to their survival. My therapy has three levels: (1) use mindfulness and relaxation methods to calm the emotional brain down, and (2) use cognitive-behavioral to develop a healthy sense of resiliency. In the 3rd stage, you will learn self-distancing techniques to discover meaningfulness at the moment and find better ways to expand your uniqueness.

Searching for the right therapist can be daunting. The prospect of starting therapy can be scary. It can be especially frustrating to try many different things to feel better, yet never finding a sense of long- term relief. Sometimes we all need extra support to start this healing journey– I know this from a deeply personal level. I have found that lasting change must involve our whole self- body, mind, and spirit. I use mindfulness skills to help bring awareness to how thoughts, feelings and sensations impact our nervous system and sense of well-being and to help you heal those places where you feel stuck and depleted.
