Therapists in Taos, MO

Hello, thanking you for taking the time to read my profile. There are hundreds of very capable counselors available. I believe that it's important to find the right counselor that's a fit for you. After all, the hallmark of counseling is the therapeutic relationship. I have been a licensed professional counselor for ten years, with emphasis on crisis intervention, depression/anxiety, anger management and abuse. I am the published author of Breaking the Silence from Shame- my journey to healing from spiritual abuse. My personal theory of counseling is that people have the tools it takes to make the desired change. It's embedded in them! Many times people lose sight of what's in them because of the hurt, pain, shame, and disappointment. My job is to plant seeds of hope, encouragement, empowerment and motivation. My approach is very down to earth. I look forward to going on this journey with you to help bring about the results that you would like to see in your life.

I chose to be a licensed therapist and clinical social worker because of my life mission to make a difference and care for others. Combining a degree in Art Education with a specialization in Art Therapy, a degree in Counselor Education, certification as a Criminal Justice Specialist, and over forty years of experience in the field, I have developed a unique expertise in creatively helping a diverse clientele. With special emphasis on being trauma-informed, using client centered approaches, and focusing on cognitive behavioral techniques, I have worked with child & adult survivors of sexual abuse, at-risk youth in juvenile detention and residential settings, experiential learning settings, and children & adults in faith-based services. I have experience working with those who are struggling with anxiety, depression, anger management, and many other life challenges. Combining years of experience with current evidence-based interventions, I am able to use my acquired wisdom and youthful spirit to help clients find the “healthier self” that lies within. If you have decided to reach out for help, or if you are curious about how your life could be better, I am ready to be the support you are looking for, so let's talk!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Washington and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri. I have been providing therapy services for 5 years. I have experience working a variety of individuals from various walks of life with a variety of challenges and presentations, such as depression, anxiety, psychosis, mood swings/bipolar symptoms, relationship/family challenges, personality disorders, communication challenges, grief/loss, and much more. Another area of experience I have is working with clients who have traumatic experiences, and supporting them in managing and reducing the impact of those experiences on their daily lives. My approach to treatment is from a place of warmth and acceptance. My intention is for you to feel comfortable building trust with me, knowing that you will be welcomed into a non-judgmental atmosphere where we will work as a partnership to meet your goals. When beginning therapy, my approach is to provide support by learning about you from a biopsychosocial model, identifying how your biological, psychological, and social factors have impacted you to create the person you are today. From there, I use a range of interventions to support you in managing and reducing the challenges you are currently experiencing; Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Strength's Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness Therapy. During our partnership, we will identify a plan together to help you become a healthier, happier you. I look forward to our time together and helping you become the person you have always wanted.
