Therapists » Licensed Professional Counselor
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Registered / Board Certified Art Therapist working with adults, adolescents, and children. My approach to therapy begins with forming a safe, therapeutic relationship that allows you to explore life transitions, emotional pain, or other symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, addiction, or eating disorders. We will move beyond symptom management and help you to identify and develop understanding of the deeper meaning of the presenting symptoms. Often, the symptoms are external manifestations of conflicts and core beliefs rooted in the inner world or attempts to avoid the pain of past and current life experiences. View 5 Photos I have worked extensively with adults, adolescents, and children with a variety of clinical issues, including eating disorders, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and trauma. In exploring your inner world, we will work together to understand more and work towards your goals for healing. I have training in the Advanced Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program for Children, Adolescents, and Adults at the St. Louis Psychoanalytic Institute, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, Advanced Training in Spiritually Integrated Therapy, and courses in the Adult Psychoanalytic Program at the St. Louis Psychoanalytic Institute.
