Because Life Isn't Meant to Be Ruled by Anxiety, OCD, or Self-Doubt.

My passion is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care for individuals and couples throughout the state of Missouri who are ready to break free from patterns that keep you stuck in the same cycles, so that you can build healthier relationships, stronger self-worth, and a more fulfilling life. My specialties include Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Trauma, and Relationship Counseling.

If you’re struggling with low self-worth, constant self-doubt, people-pleasing patterns, intrusive thoughts, difficulty expressing your needs in a healthy way, or find yourself repeating patterns or behaviors you’re ready to heal from, you are in the right place!

A Clear Path to Breaking Unhealthy Patterns

Let’s break the cycle

Therapy is more than a place to talk—it's a place to understand the patterns that have shaped your life, break free from the cycles keeping you stuck, and create healthier ways of thinking, relating, and living. Every session is tailored to your unique experiences, goals, and the life you want to build.
