I support my clients in living more fully in the present rather than being held back by the past. Many of the people I work with feel anxious, burdened by shame, or are relentlessly hard on themselves. They may find themselves stuck in unfulfilling relationships, constantly on edge, or living in a body that never truly relaxes. They often want things to change but are unsure how to move forward, even after trying therapy or other approaches before. At the heart of my work is a commitment to instilling hope and helping people unburden themselves from the past so they can live their most peaceful, free, and empowered lives. In therapy, you can expect me to be compassionate, patient, and your biggest advocate. We’ll tend to the heavy parts—grief, old wounds, and self-critical patterns—and we’ll laugh too! I believe humor belongs in the healing process, because life can be hard enough as it is. Even in a world that includes loss and pain, there is room for joy. And I love helping people find it again. If something in you is ready for change, I’d be honored to support you in that process! Online therapy is available in 40+ states. In-person therapy in St. Louis, MO.
