I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri with over 20 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, parenting problems and career challenges. I have also helped many people with drug and alcohol problems. I have helped people who have experienced trauma and domestic abuse including physical and sexual abuse. I have helped youth experiencing emotional and adjustment problems.
My therapy style is warm, non-judgmental and interactive. My approach involves cognitive behavioral, person-centered therapy and motivational interviewing. I will focus on your wants and needs giving you tools to cope and communication skills that will help you to get your needs and wants met.
It takes courage to seek help in pursuing a life that is happier and fulfilling. If you are ready to take the first steps, I will help support and empower you to achieve your therapy goals. I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
