Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a Clinical Social Worker, licensed in Missouri and Kansas and I have been practicing Social Work for more than 15 years. I have worked in a variety of settings, including medical social work, hospice/bereavement social work, and in private practice, working with a variety of ages and various populations. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and other mood disorders.
My therapeutic style is very warm and empathetic. My first goal in sessions is to make the client/s feel as comfortable as possible, especially when the situation is anxiety provoking. I offer a supportive and encouraging perspective while challenging and providing guidance when necessary to reach therapeutic goals. My therapeutic perspective is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral approaches, along with the addition of focusing on individual strengths and provide a reality therapy perspective. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can really help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is convenience. Clients can connect with a therapist in the format that best fits their needs – video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to integrate therapy into a busy schedule.
Therapists who provide online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they are seeking a different fit. This flexible, accessible model makes it possible to pursue consistent support without sacrificing quality of care.
