I am a psychotherapist specializing in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, trauma‐informed care, religious trauma, leaving influential groups, and integrative mind–body approaches. My work focuses on helping clients identify and transform the recurring emotional and relational patterns that often stem from unresolved trauma or early life experiences. By combining insight‐oriented therapy with energy work and the grounding wisdom of nature, I support clients in accessing deeper self‐understanding and creating lasting internal change.
I am a Christian counselor. I like to watch the Lord transform lives and bring order to the chaos in our lives. I am a grief specialist. I've been helping people walk through grief for almost 15 years. It's not 'goodbye' forever, it's just 'goodbye' for now. There is peace in knowing Jesus and that faith brings comfort in all types of struggle.
I believe that everyone is worthy of love and belonging and we all have a story to tell. I use my education and background to help you process past trauma, current confusion, and relational dynamics so you can experience true healing and flourishing. If you feel stuck in the same patterns or bogged down by shame, I'm so glad you're here, and I would be honored to walk with you through the darkness to a place of light and life!
Important note: I don't schedule through Headway contact me for availability.
I am becoming very specialized in relational issues, whether meeting with couples or individuals. As a society, so many are struggling in relationships, connections, and sexuality. I look at these issues largely from a developmental perspective meaning increased self- knowledge can make a huge difference in getting unstuck from negative patterns.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Saint Louis
Searching for therapists in Saint Louis starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some therapists focus on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or relationship challenges, while others work with concerns like ADHD, stress, identity, or life transitions. As you compare Saint Louis therapists, look for training and specialties that match what you want to address. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Saint Louis has a range of therapy options across areas like Clayton, Central West End, Downtown, and nearby neighborhoods, so it helps to narrow your search by location, appointment format, and schedule. Some people prefer an in-person office that fits their commute, while others choose virtual therapy in St Louis for added flexibility. You can also compare whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers evening or weekend availability, provides a free phone consultation, or works with the session structure you prefer. Reading profiles before booking can show how a therapist describes their style, communication, and experience with concerns like couples counseling, family stress, or individual care.
Therapy in Saint Louis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you begin. Headway helps you find therapists in Saint Louis who are accepting new patients and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm coverage for therapists in your area on Headway. You can browse therapists, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
