I’m Amy, a therapist for anxiety, trauma, and perinatal mental health in Missouri

 I specialize in virtual therapy with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, and perinatal mental health concerns in Kentucky, Missouri, and Tennessee.

You may find yourself caught in a cycle of overthinking, worrying about what others think, and feeling like nothing you do is quite good enough. Even when things are going well, it's difficult to quiet the voice telling you that you should be doing more or doing things differently. You might spend so much time trying to avoid mistakes, keep the peace, or meet everyone's expectations that you've lost sight of what feels right for you. You know you want things to feel different, but aren't quite sure how to get there.

You deserve a place where you don't have to hold it all together. A place to make sense of what you're experiencing, understand yourself more deeply, and begin finding ways to care for yourself, too.

YOU DESERVE TO FEEL MORE AT eASE IN YOUR OWN LIFE.

Over time, these patterns can leave you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from yourself and what matters most.

You may worry that you're too much, not enough, or that you have to get everything just right.

Perhaps you're focused on keeping everyone else happy, saying yes when you really want to say no, or putting others' needs ahead of your own.

I work with parents navigating pregnancy, postpartum challenges, and the transition to parenthood.

If you're navigating fertility challenges, infertility, pregnancy loss, pregnancy, or postpartum life, you may be experiencing emotions that are difficult to put into words. These experiences can bring grief, uncertainty, and an emotional weight that others may not fully understand. Maybe things haven't gone the way you imagined, or becoming a parent has brought changes you weren't quite prepared for. You may feel disconnected from yourself, overwhelmed by the demands of this new role, or find yourself grieving parts of your life and identity that feel different now. Perhaps you're questioning whether you're doing enough or struggling to make sense of feelings you didn't expect. You can love your child and still find this transition harder than you imagined..

You don't have to keep doing things the way you always have.

Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, better understand what's happening beneath the surface, and begin finding new ways to respond to life's challenges.

Together, we can work toward helping you:

  • Feel less controlled by worry, overthinking, and anxious thoughts.

  • Quiet your inner critic and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

  • Set boundaries and prioritize your needs without feeling responsible for everyone else's reactions.

  • Understand how past experiences influence your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

  • Navigate the emotional challenges of fertility, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences.

  • Make decisions that reflect what matters to you rather than what you think others expect of you.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you're used to being the person who handles everything. You may not know exactly what you need or how to explain what's been going on. That's okay. You don't need to have the right words or a clear plan before reaching out.

You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. You just have to be open to taking that first step.
