I believe therapy works best when it is grounded, compassionate, and practical. Many of the adults and couples I work with are high-achieving on the outside, but internally struggling with burnout, life transitions, or feeling disconnected in their relationships. My goal is to provide a non-judgmental, collaborative space where you feel truly heard and supported.

Professional Background & Education I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with extensive experience supporting individuals and couples through complex life challenges. In addition to my clinical licensure, I am currently completing my Doctorate in Education (Ed.D.) in Traumatology, with an expected graduation in 2028. My advanced doctoral training deeply informs my approach, allowing me to bring evidence-based, highly practical strategies into our work together.

Who I Serve & Specialty Areas I work exclusively with adults and couples (ages 18+), offering both flexible telehealth sessions across Missouri and in-person appointments in Moberly. My core areas of focus include:

  • Adult Neurodivergence: Supporting adults navigating late-diagnosed Autism, ADHD, high-masking burnout, and executive dysfunction.
  • Life & Relationship Transitions: Helping individuals and partners navigate divorce recovery, separation, co-parenting challenges, and blended family dynamics.
  • Healing & Recovery: Providing trauma-informed care, support for individuals in recovery culture, and faith-informed Christian counseling.

Whether you are looking to unmask and understand your brain, rebuild connection in your relationship, or navigate a difficult major transition, I look forward to walking alongside you.

Therapist

Virtual • Missouri


With 10 years of experience, I work with children, teens, and adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or ready for meaningful change. I support clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral and relationship concerns, parenting challenges, life transitions, and substance use. My approach is compassionate and practical. Together, we’ll create a judgment-free space to explore what’s getting in the way, identify your goals, and build skills for everyday life.

Growth happens through trust and practice. Change doesn’t have to happen all at once. Even the smallest steps can lead to meaningful progress over time.
