Marriage Counseling Therapists in Saint Louis, MO
You are the one who holds everything together - for your family, your job, your relationships - but inside you feel anxious, exhausted, disconnected, or quietly overwhelmed. You may struggle with chronic worry, people-pleasing, relationship stress, burnout, or feeling like you’ve lost yourself. You want peace in your body, clarity in your mind, and to finally feel emotionally safe. You’re not looking to be “fixed.” You want to feel understood, grounded, and whole again.

I have training and experience in sex therapy, EMDR for trauma, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, and grief therapy.
I am a queer, neurodivergent therapist who is passionate about supporting clients as they uncover and connect with their most authentic, grounded selves. I specialize in working with queer, trans, and non-binary folks, with a focus on sexuality, gender, neurodivergence, consensual non-monogamy, and trauma. My clients are often exploring emergent identities, unpacking relational patterns, learning to unmask, and seeking a greater sense of belonging. In our work, we'll get curious about the roots of any challenges you’re facing, the narratives you hold that shape your life, and emotional or behavioral patterns that are impacting you.

There is so much in the world that we cannot control. The one thing we can control is how we respond and how we choose to care for ourselves. Learning how to access your coping skills and mastering these skills can be life changing. Together we will tap into those skills and practice those skills until they become a way of life.

Question: What if the stories you've been telling yourself, particularly those in the genre of self-defeat and -sabotage, simply aren't true? I'd be more than happy to offer a few personal examples, but, by the mere fact that you're reading this, my guess is there's a pretty good chance you already have at least one doozy of your own. Anyway, if this just so happens to resonate, I would encourage you to visit my website for more information about my approach to psychotherapy and to consider if we might indeed be a good fit. You can do so via the "My website" button here on this page.

It’s not uncommon, at some point in our lives, to get to a point where we ask ourselves, “Does it really have to be this way forever? Do I really have to carry this pain for the rest of my life?” You may be experiencing some of this pain in your own life and are wondering how it can get better. Can this stress and anxiety really lessen? Do I have to go through all this alone? I want deeper more meaningful relationships, but how do I go about having that? Whether you’re feeling this pain alone or in relationship with another, you may be longing for the support of another to help make sense of what is happening.
