I am a passionate and committed professional whose goal is to help you create a life worth living and sharing. I specialize in treating individuals with a broad range of emotional vulnerabilities especially those that self-injure, have eating disordered behavior,have suffered trauma or struggle to open up.. I utilize EMDR and DBT therapy to help you get past the things that have been weighing you down for days, weeks, months or years. I know at times you may not feel ready or even sometimes be resistant to change but I know working together we can be truly successful. Being a counselor for 13 years with extensive training in DBT, RO-DBT, and EMDR allows us to break away from traditional therapy methods. I am warm as well as challenging and encourage you to go deeper in order to clear out old wounds that may be holding you back. I am independently licensed in both Kansas and Missouri. I work with teens, adults, couples and families. I look forward to working with you to develop skills that can help life become more enjoyable and improve your relationships with others. Call today to begin building your life worth living.
