Attachment-based Therapists in Saint Louis, MO

Living in a broken world naturally means we may often feel broken ourselves, detached from who we genuinely are, who we once were, and who we long to be. It is easy to lose connection with our true selves as we attempt to navigate our external relationships, past traumas, societal expectations, and the daily demands of this world. This disconnection can disrupt our sense of equilibrium and wholeness and can bring on feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, and a general dissatisfaction with life.

Not accepting new clients due to Maternity Leave Nov '22 to Feb '23 - Are you tired and stressed? Maybe you're worried a lot about anything and everything and feeling overwhelmed. Life is constantly changing and you can't keep up. You are snapping at people, distracted, and struggling. You’re trying to move forward but you feel stuck.

It is through this atmosphere of safety and connection that we can work together to create change.

I went into the field of psychology because I love helping people transform to the best version of themselves. We all need a safe place to understand ourselves and how we relate to others/self. I often say "We need to be Mindful of our Total-Well Being and that our minds and our bodies are an inter-connected systems. Where the mind goes, so does the man or woman in their actions and body states. We go to the physician for our physical health, so how much healthier would we be if we went to our psychologist for our mental health?" At heart, I am a holistic practitioner and love seeing my clients Thrive.

I want to congratulate you on taking steps towards creating a more meaningful relationship with yourself through therapy. Understanding ourselves more deeply can feel scary, however having the awareness on how to move forward with any of life’s challenges can feel empowering. By building competency through self-awareness, we can restore our ability to move through experiences and relationships with a sense of confidence, self-regulation, and compassion. My ideal client is someone who is struggling to learn how to give back to themselves both intimately and emotionally. This client will be very self-sufficient, but emotionally lost.

Have you ever just felt..stuck? Almost like no matter what you try to change or improve, you just feel like your wheels are spinning, and you are exhausted.

If you are navigating sexual, romantic, or emotional difficulties I am here to help. Struggling with identity and authenticity in a sex negative, stigmatizing society can be an isolating experience. You and any partners need an affirming space to explore the full bounds of your potential. A validating and inclusive space can help you feel comfortable questioning the social constructs and relational education you’ve received that may no longer serve you. You will receive guidance in existing confidently and finding the connection you seek. You deserve someone who is on your side, rooting for your success, whatever that may look like.

Someone who won’t judge you, but will gently help you walk in new paths and gain the freedom and healing that you long for.

As a transgender therapist, one of my passions is working with clients who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ population. I enjoy collaborating with individuals who are exploring their gender and/or sexual identities and hope to offer guidance and compassion as they let go of any residual societal expectations. I have undergone the entire process of hormones, top surgery, and bottom surgeries and I am open with my clients about my experiences as we work to decrease their gender dysphoria and move toward the eventual goal of gender euphoria.
