MHNet Behavioral Health Therapists in Central West End, Saint Louis, MO

My ideal client is an individual interested in a professional that can assist them in being better, having healthy relationships, and developing skills that can enhance their life and those they encounter. We all have problems and I can help clients learn the skills to overcome any issue and have a healthier mind and life!

At Love & Kindness Therapeutic Services LLC, I am looking to connect with clients of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. I enjoy helping clients explore their thoughts and feelings while working closely to explore ways to enhance coping, decision making, and problem solving skills. Please call me to schedule an appointment, and begin working collaboratively towards achieving your therapeutic goals.

Often times, how we feel about ourselves, others, and situations have a lot to do with the stories of our lives and problems that arise in social, cultural and political contexts. I collaborate with clients to create alternate stories that creatively solve their problems and increase their fulfillment in life. As a result, I am very committed to understanding and incorporating cultural aspects of the client's life into treatment. I view therapy as a collaborative experience where we select goals/objectives that will help you become the person you want to be or experience the relief you seek.

I have been in practice for 30 years as a clinical psychologist. I provide a safe and supportive environment for my clients. I use mindfulness techniques for therapy in addition to a compassionate presence. These approaches include mindfulness to resolving situational depression, teaching clients to overcome overwhelming emotional situations, relaxation techniques to quiet your mind and body, and therapy to assist each client to function each day with calmness and clarity. I am a very proactive therapist, allowing individuals to explore their own thoughts, feelings, behavior patterns, and develop an action plan that best suits their personal growth.

Struggling to find confidence in yourself and your abilities? Marital/relational conflicts have you wondering what happened to the good times? Have you experienced a major loss in your life and you're unsure how to adjust, and feel whole again? Ever wonder if your sexual activities are "normal?" Has your sexual activity become a problem in your relationship or career?

I enjoy positive psychology and prefer to focus on solutions, strengths, and assets. I feel it is important to view each person from their unique cultural experience with a nonjudgmental stance. I believe in the biopsychosocial model and understand health and functioning as being systemic in nature.

It is a priviledge for me to work with people to overcome life's obstacles and experience increased peace of mind, happiness and satisfaction with life. If you have a desire to grow, learn or change habits which limit you, I can help you achieve those goals. I have extensive experience in working with all types of anxiety and mood problems, attention deficit disorder, relationship issues, grief and loss and adjustment issues. I work with children, adolescents and adults, and see individuals, couples and families.

I offer effective, short-term, professional counseling for individuals who are ready to make changes in their lives. Clients learn how to effectively cope with their issues so they can live with intention, purpose, and personal meaning. I help you set goals and realistic measures of progress toward goals, while boosting your motivation to keep going. We also examine any barriers to achieving goals and develop strategies to remove them or minimize their effects. MARCH 2021--I'm sorry I'M NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME.
