Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Ozark, MO


I began my career in community mental health in 2010. I completed my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Evangel University. Prior to becoming a therapist I worked as a nurse for 13 years. This background leads me to take a holistic, whole-person approach to my practice. I work with children, adolescents, and adults and have specialized in treatment of trauma, ADHD, and child-parent conflicts.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.

I work with high-functioning adults—often executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals—who have survived domestic violence, emotional abuse, or chronic trauma, and are ready to move beyond survival mode into real stability and direction. If you’re successful on the outside but exhausted, hypervigilant, or disconnected on the inside, this is where the real work begins.

Therapist

I specialize in supporting women navigating complex experiences that often go misunderstood. This includes women who have experienced harm within spiritual or religious communities—whether that's spiritual abuse, religious trauma, or the complicated grief of leaving a faith tradition. I also work with women managing anxiety, depression, and interpersonal trauma.

If you've felt silenced, questioned your own reality, or struggled to trust yourself after difficult experiences, you're not alone. My practice is a place where your story matters, your feelings are valid, and healing is possible.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Missouri

Finding the right therapist in Missouri starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma, and life transitions. Missouri is home to a wide range of licensed providers — including Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

Practical factors matter, too. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near you or virtual visits from home, and look for a provider whose availability fits your schedule. If you're in a larger metro area like Kansas City or St. Louis, you'll likely have more options for both in-person and virtual care. In more rural parts of the state, virtual sessions can connect you with providers you might not otherwise be able to see.

Therapy in Missouri can vary in cost, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
