Sobre

During my past 25 years as a therapist, I've worked with children, adolescents and adults with a variety of presenting problems, including anxiety, depression, grief and loss, unresolved childhood trauma, PTSD, relationship issues among other difficulties. I am EMDR Certified and a trauma-informed and autism-informed therapist. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Iowa and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. I use an integrative therapeutic approach pulling from Mindful Self-Compassion, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy. I offer a supportive, confidential and safe place for you to work through obstacles, struggles, and current/past traumas to find a sense of peace and happiness in life. It is my role to respect your values and the goal you set out to reach in therapy. You have the CHOICE. You have the POWER. You have the STRENGTH. CREATE YOUR LIFE.
