About My Clients
The individuals I work with experience anxiety in some form: general, phobic, panic, obsessive & compulsive. Often preceded by perfectionism, ADHD, and trauma. Clients I work with are looking for ways to decrease their anxiety along with gaining a stronger awareness of self.
My Background and Approach
I have been a licensed counselor in Missouri since 2004. Wow, that surprises even me. Along my journey, I learned different techniques to help my clients. Mindfulness is one of my favorites. I feel the difference in my life, and I see the difference it makes in the lives of others. Using a Cognitive Behavioral approach, we will work together so you can create healthy routines and behaviors. We will understand your beliefs of self and the world and how they contribute to your sadness, anger, or anxiety. We will examine current problems and hash them out to find solutions or perhaps accept the uncontrollable (yeah, that’s a tough one). The path we take depends on where our conversations lead us. You are unique, and your wellness journey must fit you. What’s great is that you are not alone on this ride. I’m right here with ya! I’m here for all of it.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I champion the beautiful mosaic of individuality, believing everyone deserves the freedom to be authentically themselves. I advocate for self-agency, encouraging my clients to explore and express their true identities while honoring the journeys of others—because human rights are at the heart of connection and relationships. On a lighter note, my love for animals shines bright; if it were up to me, I'd fill a farm with furry friends! For now, I have sweet Dezi, our family dog, who brings me joy daily with her ever-wagging tail.
