Individual, Couples and Family therapy practice focused on integrative eclectic techniques including Mindfulness, communication and conflict styles, action based, cognitive psychotherapy, narrative, and trauma/resilience informed psycho education and integration.

Since 2016 I’ve been working in conjunction with TalkSpace providing online therapy. Sessions include traditional work in ongoing client centered goals, emotional check in’s, mindfulness work, trauma informed concepts, narrative therapy, relationship centered skills, and coping skills, to name a few. Broad spectrum of engagement and intriguing ways to be part of a clients daily world. During this time I’ve also worked at the Tri-County Community Behavioral Health conducting therapy sessions within the community behavioral health structure, focused on substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, as well as, all clinical diagnoses.

I provided short term family, couples, and individual therapy including short term crisis work, CBT, narrative therapy, or other techniques to address issues which are impeding an employees job function to assist them to a higher level of performance and way of managing their lives.

I worked at Signature Psychiatric Hospital where I facilitated groups based around mental health concepts for adults and adolescents. Simultaneously I functioned at the PRN Correctional Facility as a therapist for correctional setting ahd daily monitoring of inmate mental health status.

My path next led to Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault where I completed an internship facilitating groups and providing intense trauma treatment focused sessions with clients. After this time learning even more valuable tools, I moved onto working for Jackson County Family Court for four years facilitating parenting groups.

In alignment with my goals, I moved to Europe after graduating to teach English and see more of the wide world. After this amazing stint in life I moved to Kansas City to work on my Masters in Business Management while taking a role at a pediatric office and later at a recruitment company.

After a few years into my schooling I then transitioned to Friends Psychiatric Hospital, working with eating disorders patients, and other patients diagnosed with a variety of mental health disorders. I had the pleasure of facilitating powerful group therapy, individual case work, and collaborating with doctors on patients’ progress.

My experience in mental health began twenty-two years ago as I was responsible for managing a Women and Children’s Shelter in Champaign, Illinois which was very rewarding. I then worked in a variety of positions in residential treatment homes for adolescents diagnosed with spectrum disorders in Idaho.
