Let's Connect (515) 996-4370
One of the most elemental parts of being human is the need to be heard and listened to. Sharing our stories and doing the work of self-exploration requires a unique courage, and when we feel understood, we are better able to recognize our needs and see our own resourcefulness more clearly. I view you as the expert on your life and experiences. My top priorities as a therapist are understanding your perspective, learning how this perspective has shaped your life, and partnering with you in support of your goals.
My clinical background includes short- and long-term counseling with a focus on grief and the way that many different types of loss and transition impact our lives. My work is grounded in the principles of acceptance and commitment therapy, emotionally-focused therapy, and narrative therapy.
As we work together, you can expect a strengths-based approach designed to assist you as you gain understanding of yourself and your experiences. Together we will work to help you develop the skills and insights needed to live with greater purpose and ease. I firmly believe that we all deserve this type of support as we navigate life and its challenges!
