Prairie Village, KS 66208
I am a licensed professional counselor in Kansas, Missouri, and Colorado with 13 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through meaningful life transitions. I work best with those who feel ready for change and are open to exploring both practical tools and deeper inner knowing. In a calm, nonjudgmental space, we explore patterns, emotions, and what is asking to shift; integrating evidence-based care with intuitive insight. My role is to support you in finding clarity, strengthening self-trust, and moving forward in deeper alignment with who you are becoming - both as an individual and in your relationships.
When life feels heavy or uncertain, having space to pause and reflect can be transformative. I integrate DBT, Psychodynamic, Jungian, and Person-Centered therapy to support emotional regulation, insight, and intentional change; helping you explore patterns, meaning, and choice with greater clarity and alignment.
You may be sensing that something is ready to shift, even if the next step isn’t yet clear. Therapy can be a place to listen inward, explore what’s emerging, and move forward with intention. If this resonates, I invite you to reach out and welcome the opportunity to connect.
