Teletherapy for Maplewood, MO

You have made the brave decision to seek support and you are worth it. Meeting with a therapist can be intimidating; it requires strength and vulnerability. We are imperfectly human and we deserve to work towards honest self-acceptance, empowerment, and esteem in a safe place. Anxiety, codependence, depression, grief, isolation, and feelings of powerlessness can leave us exhausted and at a loss for answers. It can be easy to forget that we deserve "to be loved, and to feel worthwhile" (W. Glasser). I invite you to remember that when experiencing stress. It would be an honor to be witness to the growth of your self love.

I work with individuals and couples that are seeking healing. In session with me, we would use a scientific and holistic approach tailored to your needs. Our goal would be long-lasting and impactful transformation, which we accomplish by going to the root cause.

I don't have a ideal client in mind. I want to help people in personal distress. That being said, I have counseled all manner of people, the vast majority being adults across the spectrum of needs.

Do you or your child display high emotional intensity? Passion and drive for learning? Insatiable curiosity, extreme focus and perfectionist tendencies? Deep empathy and awareness of social injustices and hypocrisy? Fear of trying new things and anxiety about the unknown? Gifted individuals are characterized by their heightened perceptions of self and the world around them, but are often limited in their ability to process their intense reactions and emotions. I understand and can relate to the varied and complex needs within the gifted population.

Do you find it challenging to make time for yourself? Do you feel like you need a break from juggling the demands of daily life, even just for a moment? These breaks are essential in caring for your heart and mind. I specialize in providing supportive, mindful therapy as a piece of the greater picture of self care.

For many years I have had the privilege of helping individuals and families with and without IDD throughout St Louis and beyond. I am excited to offer an environment of kindness, patience, trust and respect where we explore what's most frustrating for you right now. We'll work toward increasing ease and learn how your life is offering opportunities to grow using courage and self-care.

My work is focused on creating a safe, warm, and inviting space for individuals and couples to receive therapy. Many of the couples I work with experience poor communication, lack of trust, and resistance to change. I believe those who are open to change and self-awareness are those who will benefit the most. I also enjoy working with individuals. You may be struggling with interpersonal issues. You may feel unsure of your identity and of the things you want in life. For both couples and individuals, my job is to walk with you on the path toward happiness and contentedness.
