Domestic Abuse Therapists in Kansas City, MO
My ideal client is a person carrying a lot on their shoulders emotionally, mentally, or within thier relationships. They may feel anxious, sad, or unsure of herself, often losing pieces of who they are while trying to be everything for everyone. They’re thoughtful and self-aware, yet far too hard on themselves. They want clarity, peace, and confidence, along with a space where they can be open, supported, and free from judgment. Ultimately, they want to heal, rediscover themselves, and create a life that feels grounded and aligned.

I have the honor of getting to learn about my clients' stories and how they want to live their lives.

Feelings and emotions, ugh. They can make or break our day sometimes. It’s ok though, let’s talk about it. Life is hard, but you don't have to do it alone. Everyday burdens can feel unbearable or too hard to manage on your own. It takes courage to take the first step and ask for help. You are searching for a therapist because you know something has to change, you want to feel better, you need to overcome things in your life that have held you back. There is no better time than today to make yourself a priority, grow, and become your best self. My goal is to meet you wherever you are and help you achieve the life you want.

My approach to therapy is relational and trauma informed.

I work often with individuals who have experienced sexual, religious, or childhood trauma. I utilize EMDR, an evidence based modality, to help clients reprocess traumatic experiences. My approach is integrative, with an emphasis on somatic and holistic care.

I am an experienced clinical psychologist who has worked for 35 years with persons who have suffered complex loss and trauma including child abuse and neglect, high conflict divorce, domestic violence, family dysfunction, death of loved ones, illness, unemployment, poverty, crime, and natural and man-made disasters of all kinds.
The vast majority people who seek therapy have, through no fault of their own, suffered loss and trauma causing painful consequences for their lives. The best way to heal from those losses is to first have them accurately identified and then to be gradually helped to express one's thoughts and feelings about them to a supportive listener. With such support one's experiences are validated as real and one begins to recognize one's strength and courage under the most challenging of circumstances. The opportunity to speak the truth about the painful facts of one's life to a supportive therapist is what heals.
