“We don't have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to.”

— Brené Brown

 

Welcome!

No matter the reason, I’m glad that you’re here !

Does life seem really hard right now? Perhaps you’ve experienced a series of events that have made your life seem unmanageable. You may be feeling disconnected, and this is reflected in your relationships, work or personal life. Or maybe things from your past are making life difficult. You may not feel good enough, and the voice in your head is there to remind you of all the ways you are falling short.

You are not alone.

I understand that you’re searching for a therapist because something has led you to this point. I am here to listen and support you through the issues that are making you feel stuck. These issues could be coming from outside of you in the form of difficult and even toxic relationships and environments, or they could be coming from within you, in the form of anxiety, issues from your past, betrayal, worry over children or parenting, self-sabotage, limiting beliefs, self-doubt, or even addiction.

Whatever the reason, I’m glad you’re here. Safe Care, LLC is a safe place to figure things out and how to make your life more manageable and fulfilling. We all need help every now and then. It doesn’t mean you “need fixed” or that you’re “broken”.

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WERE BORN WITH EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO LIVE THE LIFE YOU DESERVE?

WHAT IF YOU ARE ALREADY WHOLE, EVEN THOUGH YOU FEEL BROKEN?

WHAT IF THERE WAS NEVER ANYTHING WRONG WITH YOU?

Perhaps I can help.

Together, we can explore who you really are and what you need, we can discover what you really want, and we can figure out how you can really get it. I see clients in person in my office in Columbia, MO or online throughout the state of Missouri, making it easy to fit therapy into your busy life. Getting started is simple: simply email or call to schedule your free, no-obligation 15-minute phone consultation, or send me a message through the contact button on this page.

Anxiety doesn’t have to be your constant companion. Learning how to manage anxiety can improve your quality of life.
