Depression Therapists in Johnston, IA

I believe each person, couple, and family has the full capacity to heal no matter the hurdles or the history. We all have a unique story and its my role to help move past shame, trauma, and conflict using a variety of techniques. I work with individuals and families with a focus on addressing the root cause of your distress with a collaborative approach. This may be through a combination of interventions. In today's growing popularity of accessing therapy it's easy to become complacent and dependent on a therapist and lose confidence in your ability to grow, heal, and recover. Therapy should recognize strengths and resilience.

If you or a loved one is struggling with grief, trauma, life changes, and/or anxiety, want to gain better understanding of self, others, and environment, and appreciate a down-to-earth, tailored to you, therapeutic approach, I would be honored to be a part of your wellness journey.

If you’re reading this right now you’ve likely experienced a lot of pain. Maybe you feel lost and don’t know what to do, or you’ve tried many things and nothing seems to work.

You want someone who you can trust, someone who respects you and sees the struggle you’ve had to endure. Most importantly, however, you want someone who can help you fix your problem so you can get back to living a happy life, and finally have some peace of mind.

Finding the right therapist can feel like throwing a dart at the board and hoping it sticks. It's an overwhelming process and I understand how uncomfortable it can be. I am open to having a phone consultation prior to your first appointment, to address any concerns or questions you may have about my style, the process, or what to expect from our sessions together. I provide a comprehensive set of services to help boost your confidence and offer support as you confront your mental health challenges.

When you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed to the point it is impacting your day-to-day life, it helps to talk with someone who is both kind and practical — offering hope and nonjudgmental support, but also collaborating with you on finding real solutions.

I work with adults who are experiencing anxiety, stress, trouble communicating with a partner or family, and job burnout. In particular, I enjoy working with educators at all levels.

Something feels off. Sometimes it’s obvious what is affecting you, but often you’re less certain. Perhaps you have some ideas about what’s wrong, but you aren’t sure how to feel better. Maybe you are experiencing relationship issues, or just feel like you are alone even when you know you have people who care about you. It may even be possible that you are uncertain there is anything wrong at all because you’ve always felt this way - but is it really this hard for everyone? There are many people just like you that could be living happier and healthier lives - they just don’t know how to get there.
