About
Are you here because life is feeling overwhelming, but you keep telling yourself it's “It's fine, I'm fine, it's ALL fine”, even though you know it’s not? Maybe your depression or anxiety is up, or big events have shaken up your life. Now you’re looking for a space where you’ll feel comfortable and safe so that you can be free to express yourself. Maybe you’re not even sure how to do that. You just know that you need to do something. Therapy can be that something and can help you move your life in the direction that you want it to go (even if you don't know what direction that is right now!). First, we work together to identify what you want to change. I’ll work with you to help you learn how to cope with the challenges life throws at you, how to build and maintain fulfilling relationships, how to find peace in the midst of all the chaos, how to move forward from trauma, and how to be more present so that you can live the life you want. To create this change, we'll engage in down to earth conversations. To address specific struggles in your life, I often use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and IFS. EMDR has been proven to be effective at helping people to significantly reduce symptoms from anxiety, depression, and trauma. I look forward to meeting you soon! Specialties: My areas of expertise include working on anxiety, depression, and trauma. I utilize IFS (internal family systems), EMDR, and talk therapy to help you process through everything that life has thrown at you. As we delve into these topics, we work together to create a plan to create sustainable, positive change in your day to day life. Credentials & Experience: I am licensed in Iowa and Colorado and have 12 years of experience working with teenagers and adults. I am trained in EMDR and am Level 1 trained in IFS.
"I love utilizing IFS because it resonates with SO many of my clients on a deep level! The change I have seen in my clients as they increase their insight from being engaged in IFS is incredible. EMDR is fabulous for clients who might have a hard time putting things into words or who don't want to put words to the memories."
