About
I have over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and am currently licensed in Kansas and Missouri.
I use person-centered, process oriented therapy, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness in my approach. I will equip you with new cognitive behavioral skills with an emphasis on language to help you change your internal narratives, improve assertive communication, and teach people how to treat you to be seen, heard, and respected. We will explore identity, observing how and when your view of yourself became distorted, and work to change the lens through which you see yourself.
Together we reframe and refocus.
Specialization(s)
My specialty is working with individuals aged 18 and over who are struggling with self-image, body shame, emotional eating, and compulsive overeating. I also work with grief, anxiety and depression, interpersonal relationship issues, stress, parenting your parents' stress, and adjustments to new situations in your life. I also love working with pre-bariatric and post-bariatric weight loss surgery patients.
