I am a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Kansas. I have been licensed and working since 2012. For the first 6 years of my career, I worked in community mental health settings, working with all ages and stages of life. My primary role was crisis intervention for clients who were unable to keep themselves safe. In 2017, I transitioned into private practice, where I now work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I've worked extensively helping clients manage a variety of issues: depression, anxiety, suicidal thinking, relationship problems, issues around identity, problems with sex and sexuality, work and career issues, social problems, and others. Basically, if you can identify it as an issue, I've probably treated it. My goal - as a clinician and a human - is to normalize the idea of having mental health issues, and empowerment in struggle. Or, as I generally put it, "I'm not ok. You're not ok. And that's ok." I have a strong belief that the first step towards change is acceptance of who we are and where we're at. As psychologist Carl Rogers said, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change." My style is warm and supportive, but I will push you when I feel you're ready to be pushed. My goal is to help you meet your goals, and I'll encourage you to do what you've identified you want to do. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, trauma-focused modalities, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, family systems theory, contextual therapy, and interpersonal therapy as the guiding forces of my practice, but there are bits and pieces of others as well. I will pull from whatever I can if I believe it will support you in your journey. I have focused on and trained in trauma-informed care and have a variety of tools to draw on to help you meet your goals. Making the choice to start therapy and begin working on yourself is not an easy choice to make. Congratulations on taking this first step! I look forward to working with you.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, licensed in Kansas. My focus includes anxiety, depression, relationship & family issues, life changes, loss & grief. I consider It a privilege and pleasure to work with you to learn your individual story. We all have ups and downs, hopes and dreams, heartbreak and loss, success and failure, fears and regrets. All of us. My belief is that the answers are inside of us, and with processing, education, tools, coping strategies, understanding, compassion, and a plan, we can make those next steps. This is where counseling starts. A safe place to share who you are, where you have been, where you are now, and where you want to go. I am here to do just that with you. I look forward to working with you!

I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the Client and Therapist. As a Therapist I utilize evidence based therapy models such as cognitive behavioral therapy; solution focused therapy; and the biology of human behavior. The focus of therapy is to assist Clients in attaining therapy goals in a step-by-step process so that Clients gradually transition into a healthy lifestyle and also to deliver a comprehensive therapeutic approach. I have a Master’s degree in clinical psychology with a specialty in family therapy and a Master’s degree in Biology with a specialty in Neurobiology. With 21 years of experience as a psychologist and family therapist, I found very good success explaining to Clients the biology of behavior in simplistic ways. Explaining brain biology helps Clients understand the changes that are needed to modify behaviors to empower clients to maximize their potential. I have extensive experience treating depression, anxiety, adjustment, self-esteem, work related issues, family discord and relationship conflict. I have worked with clients of all ages. I look forward to meeting you.
