Biopsychosocial therapists in Missouri

A human being, by nature, is full of contradictions. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance is essential to the therapy process. The experience of "feeling" seen, or felt, or heard, is the beginning of healing. Knowing that while you are unique, you are not alone. My belief is that strong therapy starts with the therapeutic relationship.  

My passion is to help people realize what is possible, what they are capable of, and finding their best self. I specialize in transitions - in health, life, love and work. Living with a chronic illness or caring for someone with a chronic illness can be overwhelming. Transitioning from what has been to that "new normal" can be scary. I have been there and live through it myself. Taking care of a loved one? Been there. In today's world we are all dealing with changes at work and home and in our communities. Whether it is dealing with transition in your health, your job or school, I will walk with you and support you in your journey. I will meet you where you are, and together we will collaborate in your personal growth through self discovery, self acknowledgement and self care. I use a strength based approach, combining it with CBT, mindfulness and somatic approaches. We may integrate some IFS techniques along with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to walk you through any anxiety, depression and pain and help you get to the root cause of what is keeping you from feeling like you are living your best self. I see clients ages 10 and up.
