Hello
​Most people go through periods when they need extra support and guidance. I care about you and helping you to move beyond the difficulties you are currently facing. I provide therapy in a safe, unbiased, and nonjudgmental environment. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Kansas. I have a MS in Counseling Psychology, a graduate certification in Child and Adolescent Psychology from Avila University, and a BS in Developmental Psychology from the University of Kansas. I work with all age groups and specialize in Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment disorders, and Trauma.
My Style
Therapy is a process that is both challenging and rewarding. I believe in working with my clients as collaborative partners, navigating the best path for effective treatment. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy as I find these to have successful outcomes for many of the issues people face. There is no greater joy than watching others grow and enjoy life again! In my free time I like to hang out with our dogs, a 100 lb Golden Retriever and a 5 lb Chihuahua (guess who’s the boss… ), spend time with family and friends, travel, watch funny movies, and going to interesting exhibitions. In the past I did field work with black bears in northern Minnesota, volunteered with hospice, and am a huge supporter for LL,dog rescue. I won’t go on and bore you, but wanted to give you a peek into my life/personality. I encourage you to reach out for support. I know how difficult it can be to open up to essentially a stranger, but I promise you strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet and we’ll go at your pace.
