"Are you tired of anxiety getting in the way of living your life to fullest? Anxiety can feel debilitating in the enjoyment of our relationships and life in general. While anxiety is a fact of life, it doesn't have to dominate your life. I use Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, an evidenced based treatment for anxiety, to help you find new ways of managing anxiety so that you can live the life you want. Tired of finding yourself in dead end relationships? Maybe you've sworn off dating a certain "type" of person, but you seem to repeat the same relationship patterns. "

"What would it look like to be whole? To be healed? To love yourself unconditionally? To wake up everyday and be glad to be alive? To believe that life is worth living? If you are looking for the answers to these questions, all is not lost. There is hope. "

"I am a highly experienced and compassionate mental health professional with a doctorate in Counseling Psychology from University of Missouri-Columbia and post-doctoral training at Barnard College in New York City. I have been a practicing psychologist in various community and university settings for over 10 years. You may be experiencing issues with emotional eating; relationships, work/life balance or trying to find new ways to cope with any difficulties. I practice warmth, kindness and genuine honesty in order to assist in the creation of a safe and supportive environment."

"I have provided therapy for children, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years. I help my client's overcome emotional difficulties, improve communication skills, and strengthen relationships. I work collaboratively with parents in helping children develop positive behaviors, interpersonal skills, and optimum mental health. I have advanced training in Play Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I am also a certified Neurofeedback clinician."

"*WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. CONTACT US IF INTERESTED IN BEING ON OUR WAIT LIST* Do you struggle with changing behavior patterns? Fighting against low self-esteem and unhealthy boundaries? Thinking of ways to explore your sexuality or healing after sexual trauma? Or maybe you want to use therapy as a way to prioritize time to focus completely on yourself? You may have been feeling a mixture between doing the best with what you had and feeling completely overwhelmed! But now you are looking for support in addressing your problems head on, to make long-standing changes, and do the work involved in therapy."

"My desire is to walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and restoration. I work with pre-teens, adolescents, and adults, helping you face the challenges of daily life as well as the dark parts of your past. Together we will discuss strategies that help create a life worth living and the ability to find hope. Our work is to help you find your own voice and your personal strengths that enable you to face the day well. There is every reason to have hope."

"Life is challenging. Even when we are doing our best, we may still experience anxiety, depression, stress, moodiness, and difficulties in our relationships. Some of those feelings originate from experiences we remember clearly and want to understand and organize; other feelings seem to come from nowhere and despite our best efforts, interfere with our feeling better and doing the things we want to do. "

"I currently have openings for daytime, evenings, and weekends for adults seeking psychotherapy services for long term, chronic, or situational depression, stress, anxiety and chronic disorders. "

"In therapy, I help people discover and capitalize on their innate strengths, while also supporting them in learning new ways to relate to themselves and others, all in order to build more satisfying lives. I work with many individuals, particularly those who are anxious, depressed, have experienced trauma, have relational difficulties, face systemic barriers and oppression due to their identities, or struggle with their emotions. "

"We all experience difficulties at some point in our lives. At times these difficulties can become overwhelming, and we struggle to cope. This can be from one incident or many over several years. Sometimes these events make us feel stuck and can even impact us many years later. Wherever you are in your journey, I am here to assist you through the healing process and ultimately help you get unstuck. "

"I am co-owner of Psychological services of St. Louis, LLC, where I provide psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and groups, and conduct psychological assessments. I have helped people manage a wide variety of problems including anxiety and mood disorders, substance use issues, adjustment difficulties, social/relationship problems, self-esteem and assertiveness issues, anger and impulsivity, career and life direction issues, sexual orientation and gender-related problems, unusual experiences, and existential concerns. I believe strongly in taking the time to know and understand my clients so we can collaboratively find a treatment approach that fits and is as effective as possible."

"When a clinician is asked what their specialty is, they often focus on specific diagnoses. Although helpful, I believe you are so much more than a diagnosis or collection of symptoms. I think it's important to respect the complicated nature of who we are and the lives we lead. It's about understanding why you are struggling and changing what is not working for you. I think that issues or problems need to be handled with curiosity and not judgement. Only then can we focus on what feels right for you and help you have those things in your life. I am known for my work with adolescents, couples, and individuals with profound distress."

"We seek help when our way of relating to ourselves and others is no longer working for us. It can be daunting to look outside of ourselves to gain an understanding of something so personal, but taking this step offers the opportunity to cultivate powerful tools for adaptation, self-regulation and productive relationships. "

"I have 25+ years of experience in the mental health profession, with 16+ years 'post-Masters' providing therapy for adults who have issues related to relationships, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, motivation, co-dependency, spirituality, and others. At some point in most people's lives, they find themselves needing to sort through difficult issues and figure out "what to do". Or maybe they just need someone to listen. That's when therapy can help. I try to assist individuals and couples when they are "stuck" or unsure of what the "right" or "best" avenue is for their lives."

"Life can get pretty hard sometimes. Family issues, problems at work, coping with loss and the many stresses of life in general can cause difficulties that may have us asking questions like "What should I do?", or "How can I cope with this?". Sometimes conditions like depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder and substance use can cause additional problems. If these are issues you would like to manage better, call today for an appointment and let's talk together about finding workable solutions. I am a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years experience helping people with these and other problems."

"Worry, rumination, and obsessions can be overwhelming. Once it gets started it can be difficult to stop, leading to irritability and a hard time relaxing. Maybe your anxiety got worse after starting a new job or a major life change—or maybe you’ve been anxious for as long as you can remember. Either way, you may be worried your anxiety will never get better. You have a vision for your life where you're confident and happy, moving forward with goals and plans. You want to be fully present for the moments of your life, not distracted and anxious. I'm here to help!"

"My practice includes clients dealing with depression, anxiety, abuse issues, relationship conflicts, grief and loss, and parent/child problems. I may utilize solution-focused therapy to provide initial relief of symptoms but I always encourage my clients to look for and explore the source of their difficulties so that life-long resolutions can be gained. I am trained in psychodynamic therapy but adjust treatment according to the client's needs."

"Give yourself permission to heal. See the evidence of your work in the enriched connections you create with yourself and the important people in your life. There’s no one right way to heal or care for the self, but there are strategies and approaches that can offer you a stroke of confidence and peace of mind. I approach self-care with a realization that it’s multi-faceted and unique to each of us. I realize that what works well for you may not work well for everyone else."

"Are you afraid? Depressed? Annoyed? We alI struggle with these at times. If you are at a place where the situations in your life feel like "too much", I am passionate about working with you to find peace and healing in the midst of it. Together we can work to name the strengths you have that will aid you in life. From the moment you walk in, my goal is to provide you with a place where you feel safe to work through issues at your own pace, while experiencing me as an ally in your work. I strive to create an environment where clients can realize their strengths, heal from their hurts, and truly flourish."
