Therapists Beginning With N in Missouri

Are you transgender or a part of the LGBTQIA+ community? As someone who is a part of that community, I would love to help you sort out your identities and find ways to cope with life. Additionally, many individuals in this community have experienced trauma due to various religious or spiritual environments, and I would love to help you work toward freedom from guilt, shame, and other feelings that come up. Many people, queer or not, churchgoer or not, experience this trauma, and processing this can make a big difference. I also work with addictions, anxiety, depression, grief, and other forms of trauma as well.

Hello! Often our life transitions challenge our former identities; a new work role, changing relationship dynamics, or parenthood. Feeling overwhelmed or exhausted by the demands of the day to day is real. We often feel inadequate and powerless in new roles.

I'm always honored to help adults and adolescents who are recovering and learning to thrive following acute and complex trauma. Traumatic stress reactions can take many forms including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, emotion dysregulation, substance misuse, and difficulties in relationships. Through a careful assessment and individualized formulation, trauma-focused psychotherapy can help to address them all.

Using gentleness mixed with honesty, I will call you forward to better.Not to shame, but to healing. Freedom, passion, vibrance, thriving and not simply surviving. It's possible. There's hope. I believe we hold power over our own healing. I merely come alongside those who have decided to make that brave journey. From the very beginning, the most consistent feedback is of feeling safe and truly understood. I believe in "working myself out of a job", achieved by doing good work and encouraging clients to test and stretch their growth. They do this out on their own, knowing they can return for new layers of work.

The reality is—sh!t happens. We all face difficult experiences throughout our lives. For those whose difficulties begin in childhood, it can carry into adulthood, impacting our relationships with ourselves and with our loved ones. Yet, I believe we are all people in progress, and when sh!t happens, shift can too. Because of this, I have intentionally built my practice around the treatment of anxiety, depression, and relationship distress derived from familial trauma and relational wounds.

I am here to help you with what you need right now. This includes if you are struggling with current life situations, stressors at work/school, or problems with managing your emotions, like anxiety, depression, or anger. I am passionate about what I do, and I love working with clients to help them achieve their goals in life. My type of therapy adjusts to what you need. This can mean that I do a more relaxed style of session where we are just talking about what is going on and problem solving in the moment or if that does not work for you, I can also do a more structured approach, that focuses on skills and coping strategies.

Understanding ourselves and our lives can be difficult. On the one hand, we may be prone to a sea of critical internal or external voices which make self-examination torturous. On the other, well-meaning people in our lives may be so eager to validate us that we are never quite able to face ourselves honestly. So, counseling is essentially about receiving the support to work creatively with all of this noise long enough to allow change to happen in and through you. The only way to do this to let someone get to know the real you. If we can do that, therapy can be a deeply authentic, radically human, even life-changing encounter!
