Using evidence-based techniques, I will help you look for patterns in your thinking or actions that may be causing problems, often rooted in trauma. I will empower you to establish healthy relationships, develop better coping skills, set boundaries & aid your ability to connect to your body & emotions while learning to regulate them effectively. Using a warm, genuine and goal-focused approach, you can be assured that whatever issue you have come to therapy to address, I will work to gently, but firmly encourage you to help resolve it. I emphasize praise & rewards for achievements, relying on your strengths as motivators for change.
I am a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in MO & IL certified Trauma Care specialist, EMDR-certified, former President of the St. Louis Association of Marriage & Family Therapy, published author on Trauma-Informed Care, and co-owner of Healing Reflections Therapy group practice. I come to you with 26 years of experience specializing in trauma recovery.
Traumatic experiences & geopolitical crises can result in depression, loneliness, hopelessness, anxiety, shame, problems with trust and intimacy, poor coping skills. These are often normal reactions to abnormal situations. It is important to know that you are not alone and that there is hope. I hope to join you on your healing journey from darkness to light.
