A Little About Me - 

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, located in Missouri.  I have over ten years of experience working with people in a therapeutic capacity and I've had the opportunity to work with clients facing an array of challenges, including overwhelming stress, divorce, parenting challenges, housing or food insecurity, depression, and anxiety. I also have experience working with survivors of childhood abuse (physical, sexual, and emotional), domestic violence, and sexual assault.

I tend to be pretty laid-back during counseling sessions and my main focus is giving you space to talk through whatever is on your mind. The space I hold for you will be open-minded, non-judgmental, strengths-based, and warm. I'm primarily a client-centered therapist that practices Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, so I mainly want to hear from you. However, I do incorporate elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy so that you have something concrete to focus on, if you want it. I believe that clients deserve the right to be a collaborator in the therapeutic process, so I'll want to hear from you what's working, what isn't, what you like, and what you don't. I'm eager to partner with you.

What I Offer - 

I offer individual therapy services, single-session therapy, and accountability partnerships.  Check out the "Services" tab for more information on what these are, and pricing for each one.

All services are virtual, and can take place via video call over HIPAA-compliant software (Simple Practice) or over the phone. 

Therapy needs look different for everyone - so session frequency can vary from person to person.  Many people choose to meet weekly, while for others a session every other week or even once a month can suffice.  This may change during the time we're working together - I encourage you to be open with me about what you feel your needs are and what would best benefit you.
