Are you feeling stuck?
Disconnected from yourself.
Stressed. Irritated.
Feeling alone.
So focused on other people's needs.
Feeling like you're not in control of your own life.

Hi! I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist in Kansas City, Missouri and I want to help you get unstuck. Finding the right therapist is hard - someone you vibe with, who feels authentic & genuine, that listens and makes you feel heard and seen. I believe finding the right fit in therapy is everything so here's a little bit about me ...
I moved here from Ontario, Canada almost 7 years ago for graduate school to become a licensed marriage and family therapist. I dove into my own therapy journey as I was experiencing such a big life transition. I get how hard it can be to feel stuck, overwhelmed, and out of control and that's why I feel such a connection to my clients who are experiencing that themselves.
I mainly use NARM (neuroaffective relational model), Internal Family Systems, and EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), which are all trauma-informed therapies, to help you process what's happening in your life, what got you here, and help you start experiencing yourself in a different way.
I know what it's like to be so overwhelmed by the mere idea of what it would take to grow, heal, and move closer to just being happy with your life and that's what I'm here for. You don't have to figure it all out by yourself. If you feel connected to my page or think we might be the right fit, let's schedule a free consultation call.
So... what does healing look like?
Step 1. Imagine a better life for yourself. We process what it would look like if you were really experiencing life and yourself in the way you want to.
Step 2. We figure out what's getting in the way of you experiencing that. Is it unresolved trauma? Unhealed wounds?
Everyone has a story and I want to hear yours.
Step 3. We process the wounds and get you reconnected to yourself. I help you reclaim your control and agency back.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reproccesing (EMDR)
A type of individual therapy where we focus on using EMDR to process trauma and the negative self beliefs we take on as a result of the trauma. A way to begin freeing your mind from the heaviness of past wounds.
We move through so much of our lives feeling unheard, feeling like no one truly knows who we are. I want to know you at your core and provide a space where you finally feel seen.
