There is nothing worse than hearing that alarm clock day in and out, only to wake up feeling like you didn’t sleep at all. All the thoughts begin to flood in, your “to-do’s”, this or that meeting or appointment. You haven’t even made it out the door before feeling completely overwhelmed, defeated, or maybe even hopeless. Depressed, anxious, moody, or irritable may be words that describe how you’re feeling; perhaps your loved ones have said similar things. I have helped countless others like yourself, and I am confident that together we can get you feeling better. I treat a wide range of mental health disorders adolescents and adults
When working with me, know that you will never be judged or invalidated. After a thorough evaluation, we will create a personalized treatment plan. Medication may be indicated to reach certain treatment goals, though it will always be prescribed at the lowest effective dose/duration. I often incorporate other evidence-based wellness modalities when needed.
Imagine waking up motivated to start your day and feeling confident to handle whatever life throws at you. Wherever life has taken you, today it has brought you to the beginning of a new chapter. Don't settle for the familiar feelings of depression and anxiety, take the next step and make an appointment today! I am able to treat any Iowa resident!
