As a licensed therapist in Missouri, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each client's unique journey, with expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I offer a supportive space for exploring self-esteem, personal growth, and healing from challenging experiences.
My therapeutic work centers on understanding the whole person, whether you're struggling with social anxiety, relationship challenges, or seeking greater self-understanding. I'm particularly committed to helping clients work through feelings of isolation, shame, and disconnection, and supporting those experiencing significant life changes.
Drawing from evidence-based practices, I create a warm, respectful environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and rediscover their inner strength. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build meaningful connections, process difficult emotions, and move toward a more fulfilling life.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
