About

Life can be hard. From daily stressors to past trauma to life changes and more, I know that you are dealing with a lot. I will partner with you to get through the hard things in life and find joy. I am an anxiety, depression, and trauma therapist in Iowa with immediate openings over telehealth or in person. I can assist you to identify your values, setbacks, and strengths to improve your mental health and functioning. I will help you communicate effectively with others and understand what you want from life. I have experience working with clients from a wide variety of identities and situations. I am a non judgmental therapist who works with clients ages 11 and older. I enjoy guiding people in navigating career and life transitions, the perinatal period and parenting, self esteem challenges, and past trauma that continues to impact your day to day life. I am trained in EMDR and incorporate a wide variety of therapeutic interventions to fit your needs. I can help you explore attachment style, provide psychoeducation, and connect you to resources. I know starting therapy can be a difficult process. I aim to create a safe environment and relationship to help you feel better. It would be an honor to support you **Specialties:** My trauma-informed approach guides my work, deeply rooted in empathy, trust, and safety. I also have experience working with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and life changes. Additionally, I have completed training in perinatal mental health.

"I incorporate elements of motivational interviewing, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, EMDR, and more to find the best personalized approach for each client."
