Therapists in Creve Coeur, MO
I once had a counselor say to me ‘you don’t get into this profession unless you’ve been through hard times,’ and in a moment when I felt isolated and alone, those words were incredibly meaningful and ultimately life-changing for me. I’m here because I have had hard moments in my life (like all humans!) and I want to use what I’ve learned through those experiences and how I’ve grown, to help others find their way through the dark experiences of life. You’re not alone, I will help you! My overarching goal as a therapist is to help each client find peace, acceptance, and contentment within themselves, their body and their life.

“Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you doesn’t mean you can, should, or need to do it alone.” — Lisa Olivera. You're reading this because you are ready to do the inner work. Maybe a major life event has you re-evaluating the direction of your life and you know you want change, but don't quite know what that looks like yet. Let me partner with you on your journey to wholeness. I have significant experience in helping individuals work through depression and anxiety, improve family relationships, navigate grief and loss, explore spirituality and connect deeply to self.

I think in order to create real, lasting change that you not only have to challenge your thoughts and behaviors, but also address the underlying feelings and emotions that contribute to them. If you are tired of feeling stuck I will work with you to identify and change your unhealthy patterns so that you can move forward.

Stuck? People-Pleasing? Burnt out by life? Almost like no matter what you try to change or improve, those wheels just keep spinning, and you are exhausted. My ideal client is someone who is just ready to feel better. You may not exactly know what is going on or why these feelings are coming up all of a sudden. That's okay! You deserve someone who will collaborate with you no matter what you are dealing with. I believe connection and authenticity is the most vital part of the therapy process. Therapy is not just for fears and tears, but laughter and smiles too :) Let's tackle this together! (I hope you enjoy analogies!)

Are you just f-ing exhausted? A car accident left you emotionally paralyzed. An assault shook up your life. A recent medical diagnosis or crisis has you questioning what's next. All the "why" questions are flying through your head and the constant noise is driving you nuts. You want things to make sense. You want to feel like yourself again. Most of all, you want to go back in time to the thing that changed your body or your life and do everything in your power to prevent it from happening. The problem is that no one prepared you for this or understands how to help.

You cram a handful of cashews in your mouth on the way to get your next client. If you end this session on time, you can pee before the next one. Ope - your phone’s buzzing - crap, it’s daycare. “So much for peeing,” you think, as you answer the call. Two degrees, a practicum, three internships, and 3,000 supervised hours to birth the therapist inside you. Yet no one told you the woman/mother/daughter/sister/wife/friend parts of you might wither and die in the process. So when they quip “You can’t pour from an empty cup”, you inwardly roll your eyes because here you are, at this very moment, pouring.
