Anxiety Therapists in Grover, MO

Mental health therapy is able to help you in many aspects of your life. Some of those aspects might be life transitions, anxiety, depression, past trauma, and relationship issues. In the presence of a trusted therapist, you are able to discuss what might be keeping you from leading a more contented, peaceful life while working to form a deeper understanding of yourself. In therapy, we will discuss self-talk, mind-body connections, and patterns that are prevalent in your life. We will also explore past trauma that might be manifesting itself in symptoms such as anxiety and depression.

The first step to change is deciding you are ready. Life is beautiful, but it can also be hard. If things feel out of control, you aren't reaching your goals, or you simply need someone to talk to, therapy might be for you. In my practice, I aspire to help each of my clients better understand their struggles, set goals, and begin the often difficult work of growth through an eclectic, client-centered approach that focuses on strengths and solutions and incorporates elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

I am passionate about connecting with people and providing a safe and confidential space in which you can share your hopes, dreams, and fears. I believe that each person has innate strengths and I feel honored to be able to be a part of your journey towards a more satisfying and healthy life.

Is your teen or tween struggling at home, school or in peer relationships? Is his/her mood or behavior creating a chaotic environment for your family? I believe that with education and encouragement, your adolescent can learn the skills necessary to cope with stress, adjust to life's transitions and mature into a healthy resilient adult.

Are you someone who struggles with issues surrounding self-esteem, people pleasing, and caretaking behaviors? Do these issues cause you to feel symptoms of depression or anxiety? I get it, it is hard. It is hard to live our crazy busy lives day in and day out while handling the heaviness of our feelings and caretaking the feelings of those around us. Where I see these issues arise is in relationships that thrive in codependency, such as caring for a loved one who has an addiction, parenting and postpartum, and in being the primary or default caretaker for others.

You have a story to tell, but you don’t even know where to start. You feel exhausted, anxious and overwhelmed with life and your relationships.

My approach presents an opportunity to build life and social skills that are needed to help us live a better life. In addition, we will work together so you can pay more attention to what you are feeling, to achieve congruence and allow you to be yourself.

We all have the potential to grow and find happiness even in the midst of chaos or times of uncertainty. If you are ready to make changes in your life, I'd be happy to help guide your family.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, worried, or depressed? Life can be very challenging at times! With the right help and guidance however, we can find our way back towards emotional well-being and resolve the issues that burden us. As valedictorian of both my undergraduate and graduate degree program, professional excellence and effective treatment is a priority for me in my work with children, adolescents, and adults.

I believe a core element of growth lies in the understanding that the only thing you have control over is your thinking and response to any given situation. I seek to provide an atmosphere of non-judgmental support so that you can educate and empower yourself to no longer believe your happiness and contentment lies in anything outside yourself. I invite you, from the heart, to start your journey and discover how to take charge of your wellbeing.

When I was serving as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Ukraine, the comfort of someone speaking my language was immeasurable. Speaking your language is important to me. Whether it’s through humor, warmth, empathy, or directness, I strive to make therapy relieving rather than another foreign experience. When therapists discuss what type of therapy they do, is it just another set of abbreviations with absolutely no meaning? Let me be your translator. I deeply value education, so if you are unfamiliar with any of the therapies I list below, I will explain extensively as to how they work within session. If you like learning, I'm your person.

Using gentleness mixed with honesty, I will call you forward to better.Not to shame, but to healing.Freedom, passion, vibrance, thriving and not simply surviving. It's possible.There's hope.I believe we hold power over our own healing.I merely come alongside those who have decided to make that brave journey.From the very beginning, the most consistent feedback is of feeling safe and truly understood.I believe in "working myself out of a job", achieved by doing good work and encouraging clients to test and stretch their growth.They do this out on their own, knowing they can return for new layers of work.

Sex addiction doesn't have to continue ruining your life. Life may feel hopeless, and your anxiety may be higher than you've ever felt before. Yet, it doesn't have to stay this way. My clients all have two things in common: 1) They want to be here for themselves, even when others are making them, and 2) They work to achieve their goals. They come to me usually in a state of panic or depression, or some even come in when their world is chaotic and out of control. When you're ready to tackle your issues, give me a call.
