Therapists in Emporia, KS

Life issues are hard enough, but going through them alone or unsupported is even harder. You are not your symptoms and you are not alone. Counseling can be a powerful asset. Choosing the right therapist for you can be a daunting task. I would love the opportunity to see if we are a good match. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental environment so that personal exploration, reflection, growth, and positive changes can occur. I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, other clinicians/mental health professionals, and the LGBTQIA+ community.

Hi there! I know is not easy to take the first step into therapy. Or making the decision to get back into therapy or even looking for a new counselor. It takes strength and wisdom to reach out for help. Sometimes life does not go the way we plan. Or we simply find ourselves with day to day stress/struggles. I like to embrace what you are already doing good and empower you in your life journey.

For 15 years I have helped people navigate trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions and adjustment issues. My clients have freed themselves from repetitive, self-defeating patterns and behaviors. They are now leading the lives they want and have found satisfaction in their relationships. Whether you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you are ready to move in a new life direction, I can provide you with the support and resources to help you achieve your goal. I love helping clients discover their own strengths and successfully manage their wellness.

As someone seeking growth and healing, you are looking for a guide who can help you find balance, tap into your intuition, and bring your personal vision and desires to life. You’ve been feeling disconnected from your own essence or from others & are ready to explore the depths of self-discovery to strengthen your intimate relationships, reignite your passion, delve into your self-identity and sexuality, build your confidence, and have support on your journey. You believe in the transformative power of creative expression & are committed to placing as much value on your well-being as you do on others in your life.

The tension in your chest is there again. You can hardly catch your breath. So much to do! Your mind is racing and you feel like you are drowning. Even the smallest things are irritating. You just screamed at your son for spilling a drink, and now feel terrible about it. You missed another assignment at work because you’re so distracted. Confidence is at an all-time low. “I can’t do anything right,” you tell yourself. You know something needs to change, but you’re paralyzed by anxiety. Overthinking every choice until you can’t take any action. It’s gotten to the point where you just want to stay in bed, avoid everyone, and give up.
