Connect with Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) therapy in Leawood, KS

I'm a Licensed Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist (LCMFT) with more than 20 years of experience providing individual, couple, and family therapy. I enjoy working with both adults and teenagers. I am trained in several different evidence-based treatment modalities that are proven to be effective and solution-focused.

My therapeutic style is warm, engaging, and genuine. I take an eclectic approach to counseling in which I enjoy working with people from all different lifestyles. I help people work through depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, stress management, identity challenges, and emotional awareness.

I help individuals, couples, families, and veterans find joy and fulfillment in their relationships. Whether you're facing challenges or seeking growth, we'll work together using down-to-earth conversation so you can feel calm and relaxed. A Christian approach is available if desired.

Feeling anxious, depressed, or alone? Feeling confused about choosing a therapist? With 25 years in mental health, I’ve witnessed the transformative power of authentic connections. These connections inspire us to evolve and motivate us to strive to be our best selves. Let me join you on your journey and explore the path forward, side by side.

My passion is witnessing the growth and healing that comes from leaning into vulnerability and exploring blocks from a place of compassion and curiosity. I support clients as they learn tools to work through challenges while doing deep inner work to cultivate self-love, inner peace, and confidence.

I have a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach and focus on addictions, mental health, and trauma.

Life can be hard, and at times the challenges we face can feel overwhelming or isolating. Counseling can be a helpful and supportive space to process life's struggles, ask hard questions, and experience healing.

I understand it takes time to learn and incorporate effective coping skills to begin the healing journey.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I am also a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker in the state of Kansas. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years, and I embrace supporting adults and adolescents by empowering individuals through a collaborative care model.

I'm excited to help you change how you feel about yourself, your relationships, and how you manage day-to-day challenges.

I am happy that you are here. I love the work I get to do. I believe that we all have a unique and interesting story. It is in sharing our stories, we can receive care and comfort, and it allows me to offer empathy and challenge so that we can begin creating a plan for you.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, or other life stressors. I find it most helpful to start where you feel comfortable and work right away towards helping you find progress and relief quickly.

Approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS), have been proven to be helpful.

I have dedicated a large portion of my life to working within the helping and human service field. I am a firm believer in approaching the therapeutic process by “starting where the client is at” and letting them lead the process of their mental health journey.
