What you can expect


I help you slow down, and get to know yourself better, so you can better understand what you need, feel, and desire. We will also explore your relationships, their patterns, and what part you may play in the challenges you are experiencing. Then, we turn all of this insight into practical steps you can take between sessions.

I am deeply committed to creating a safe space where you feel heard and accepted. As a trauma-informed, holistic therapist, I help you access more than your mind to find clarity and compassion to navigate life and relationship challenges with more confidence.

Common Questions

  • As of October 1, 2023, I am in-network with Aetna & UnitedHealthcare insurance plans. I bill insurance through a company called Alma. Click here to estimate your out-of-pocket cost using insurance.

    For all other insurance plans that I’m out-of-network for, you would pay me directly for the cost of the session. If you’d like to request reimbursement from your insurance company, I can provide a specialized invoice to you monthly.

    Note: If you are deciding between self-pay or using insurance, here are a few things to consider. Insurance companies can audit and request your therapist’s progress notes. And insurance companies only pay for what they view as helping decrease mental health symptoms, so a diagnosis is required on your file.

  • I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri since 2001.

  • I completed my Mater’s (MA) in Clinical Psychology in 1997. So I have over 25 years of experience as a therapist in a variety of settings and many different forms of therapy.

  • Holistic counseling focuses on the whole person. Healing and self-care for all of you - mind, body, heart, and spirt.

    I respect your pace, values, and resources, while also helping you access more than your mind to help with healing and personal growth.

  • I am a holistic psychotherapist that works through an IFS lens where all parts of you are welcome. I help you become a resource to yourself, no matter what life throws at you.

    The modalities that have informed my work are Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Parts work, Mindful Self-Compassion, Bowen Family Systems, and Discernment Counseling.

  • I currently offer both options. I see clients on Wednesdays at The Sundry in Waldo (Kansas City area).

    I also offer online therapy sessions on Tuesdays & Thursdays either via phone or video session.

    Note: If you choose confidential video sessions, then you will need a secure internet connection and a computer/phone with a camera and microphone. Headphones are helpful if there is background noise.

  • I DON’T provide counseling for children, teens, or couples. I DO provide individual therapy for adults in Missouri, ages 19 and up. (Due to licensing regulations, I am not able to provide psychotherapy services to those outside of my state or country.)

  • I only schedule appointments with new clients after we’ve had an initial conversation to determine if we are a good fit. The best way to reach me is to schedule a complimentary, 15-minute discovery call with me. Click here to see my availability for introductory calls.

Welcome, I’m so glad you are here!

Most of us were never taught that love comes from within too, so it can be helpful to have a guide. Someone that accepts all of you, while also believing you can find and grow your true self. If you are interested in working with me, then let’s chat.
