Daytime appts and insurance friendly. Serving MO, GA, AL, and FL. There are so many things that can get in the way of enjoying a healthy, fulfilling life. Do you feel sad, worried, stuck? Can't sleep? I can help you tap into your natural resilience to find your path to contentment while I serve as a guide and collaborative partner along the way. My positive therapeutic approach leverages encouragement, advocacy, empowerment, learning, and skills development. Together, we'll develop a plan that helps you to reach your goals in the most effective way for you. Imagine yourself on the other side of this. I want to help you get there.
You deserve to be heard and I will listen. Most often, I listen to people with anxiety (generalized/social), insomnia, depression, stress, guilt, and low self-esteem. Major life transitions (college, divorce) and BFRBs (trichotillomania, skin picking) are passions of mine. Mindfulness can be beneficial to many people and I can introduce you to that as well.
I understand & appreciate that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Some want short-term help to cope with stressful/challenging events. Others prefer longer-term therapy that explores issues more deeply, leading to self-discovery. Let's figure out what we can do now to make today a little better, and then do that again at every session.

During our first few sessions, we will be building a rapport that helps you feel comfortable talking about why you're here. We'll talk about other tough situations you've navigated successfully to help identify your strengths. For insomnia, I work within a very specific framework and treatment typically lasts about 8 weeks.
