“As a therapist, providing therapy since 1995, I help clients in the Kansas City area with issues such as body image, anxiety, depression, stress, family and relationships. I also help clients who are in transition or are feeling overwhelmed or stuck in life. I pride myself on offering hope, compassion, and professional expertise in a relaxing nonjudgemental therapeutic environment

I received my graduate degree from the University of Denver. I am a member of ADAA (Anxiety Disorders Association of America), IAEDP (International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals)and PPI (Postpartum Support International).

In working with clients I implement aspects of various therapeutic orientations including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, MST or Multisystemic Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, Family Systems, and DBT or Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.”
