What Clients Say

I was numb and used to escape and check out... it was ruining our marriage...I now look forward to counseling and didn't know expressing my emotions could make our marriage better.

Losing our child was tearing us apart because we weren't able to grieve together, we were fighting against each other instead of with each other... now we're in this together

I didn't know we could ever heal from my infidelity.... we went from avoiding and only crying to building a new future and somehow are closer than we were before

Online Counseling 

I'm Looking For...

Looking to improve your relationship? Have more productive communication? Maybe you stuff your emotions and then they explode and hurt others. Maybe you're stressed, I mean just plain exhausted and need help being "you" again. Maybe you're curious about your story, and how your life has shaped the way you make relationships, react under stress, and the way you view yourself. Maybe you lack the confidence to speak directly and ask for that promotion. Whatever the reason, I'm glad you're looking for help - that takes strength!

 

If you relate to this paragraph at all, you're in the right place and it's time to set up an appointment.

My Counseling  Specialties

Men's Issues
Communication, anger, sexual issues, pornography, checking out, fatherhood and more. Online Therapy Available.

EMDR

Clinically proven to heal trauma and PTSD. This approach is often much quicker than talk therapy but can be exhausting.  

Couples Counseling
No one is perfect. Every relationship needs guidance. Counseling is not failing. I primarily use EFT for couples counseling. 

Life can be overwhelming and disappointing - and that's without a global pandemic! Sometimes unexpected events happen that shake us, and leave us powerless and hyper-vigilant. Sometimes we look at our relationships and wonder, "how did we get here? or "how did I get so empty?" 

Whatever is weighing on your heart, you don't have to do this alone.

You can explore solutions and find relief with counseling in a safe, compassionate, confidential environment.  

 

Be empowered and supported on your journey to a fuller, richer life.

Virtual Online Marriage Counseling

No one gets married thinking, "This'll never last... this person is the worst... I can't stand them!" We have to confront our individual work and stories to understand how we miss each other. We have to understand intention vs unintentional impact. We have to own our own defensiveness, criticism, walls, and avoidance and not just focus on how the other person hurts us.

Virtual Zoom EMDR Therapy

289034673_10203044105485701_9117394897817755805_n.jpg

Trama has been defined as a sudden, life-altering event. Trama can often lead to PTSD. Through research EMDR (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing) has been shown to cure PTSD and give people their life back. EMDR therapy is also used for negative beliefs about ourselves that rule our lives.  Contact an EMDR Therapist today.

Online Counselor for Depression

Depression and anxiety are exhausting! They try to steal your life and you don't feel like the true you. Every day feels like a battle, but it doesn't have to! You weren't meant to do this alone. With the help of counseling, you can enjoy life again!

FAQ

Do I have to commit to "x" number of counseling sessions?

No. You can schedule as many or as few counseling sessions as you want; there is no obligation. If you decide to cancel and cancel with 48 hours' notice you will not be billed! Though there is no commitment, keep in mind that counseling is most effective when regularly attended until goals are met.

Do you take insurance?

No.  Insurance companies require session updates, notes, and personally identifiable information to be shared with them. Therapy should be a safe and confidential place and I do not believe others should be part of this experience. 

However: many insurance companies will reimburse Out-Of-Network counseling sessions. I have yet to encounter a company requiring any progress updates or information from counseling sessions when you use OON benefits.  

 

I provide paperwork for you to appeal to your insurance company for reimbursement. This is free money, so I encourage you to call them. 

Counseling FAQs Questions Saint Louis

Can I talk to you before scheduling a counseling session?

Due to demand and "no shows" I am sorry to say I am no longer able to offer 10-minute consultations. 

How many sessions should I expect?

Many clients reach their goals after 3-6 months and typically within 20-30 sessions. Past results do not guarantee future ones and every case is different. 

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a safe place for you to be heard, explore your thoughts and feelings, find compassion, be lovingly challenged to grow, receive education, and be overall supported in your journey of meeting your goals. Exchange ineffective and draining patterns with life-giving ones.

Are you seeing people in person?

I offer counseling sessions in-person and via Video
