  • About Me

    I believe that everyone deserves a safe space to breathe.

    Life often pulls us in many directions at once. We carry responsibilities, past experiences, unanswered questions, and the quiet weight of trying to hold everything together. Sometimes, that pressure shows up as anxiety, discouragement, fatigue, or a sense of disconnection from ourselves and loved ones.

    As a graduate student therapy intern, my goal is to create a space where you feel truly heard and supported as you work through what life has handed you. I approach counseling with compassion, curiosity, and respect for your story. Whether you're dealing with relationship stress, life transitions, or the effects of past experiences, I walk alongside you with encouragement and practical tools for growth.

    Who I am:
    I’m a Graduate Student Counseling intern, minister, veteran, and emergency management professional with over two decades of experience helping people through crises and life challenges. My experiences with chronic illness, caregiving, trauma, and resilience have fueled my passion for supporting people during difficult times. I value authenticity, compassion, hope, and practical support.

  • What I do

    How I work:
    My approach is relational, strengths-based, and collaborative, drawing from Adlerian principles, encouragement, trauma-informed care, and solution-focused approaches. I believe clients possess strengths and resources they need, and counseling can help uncover and strengthen them. I balance empathy with practical action, ensuring clients feel heard and understood while leaving sessions with hope, insight, and a clearer path forward.

    Areas of Clinical Interest:

    • Adults and couples facing stress, discouragement, or changes in relationships or life paths, who feel overwhelmed, stuck, discouraged, or uncertain people find their way forward.

    • Those experiencing with anxiety, trauma, chronic illness, grief, caregiver stress, life transitions, relationship issues, or identity and purpose concerns.

    • Clients seeking a counseling environment that supports faith or spirituality

    Availability:

    • Accepting new clients

    • Virtual appointments preferred (KS + MO); limited in-person sessions available (Lee’s Summit, MO)
