People I work with are typically experiencing stress/anxiety at home, work, school and may be having difficulty with relationships. Often individuals have trauma histories to explore or are impacted by stressful relationships such as caregiving, family members with substance use, or conflict in romantic relationships. Most importantly, our therapeutic relationship is an environment that is safe for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so you can begin to find peace, increased self-worth, better boundaries, and improved ability to feel joy in all of your spaces you occupy. I specialize in trauma, attachment/relational concerns, identity exploration, self-esteem/self-worth, college/work/caregiving stress, substance use. LGBTQ+ affirming & anti-racist. Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist. EMDR trained. I lean heavily on family systems and attachment theory as well as understanding our nervous system in my framework for therapy. I’m so glad you’re here and thinking about starting your healing process. It’s an honor that you are considering doing this work with me. I don't take the role lightly, & I respect & value every moment with people who choose to seek my help. In Person in Kirkwood. Telehealth available for anyone in MO.
