Now accepting new clients (UI Gradcare, SHIP, UIChoice) - near campus in Northside of Iowa City & on bus routes > For so many of us, life can be overwhelming, disorienting, and difficult. In working with you, my hope is to have an opportunity to slow down, to be curious, and to uncover deeper meaning and connections within ourselves and in relating to others. Your particular knowledge, challenges, experiences, and expertise will be listened to carefully and sensitively responded to with transparency, kindness, and compassion. It is my commitment to greet you in each session with trust, a calm presence, and unconditional hospitality.
I approach therapy through relational, collaborative, and existential frameworks. I am drawn to working with stories and metaphors for the ways they may provide access to emotions and language to better understand who we are, what matters, and how we find - or rediscover - energy and comfort, particularly in the context of life transitions, grief, and loss.
I have a Master of Arts degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Mount Mercy University. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families - offering therapy services that are affirming and welcoming to all. I appreciate your interest and earnestly look forward to being there alongside you in the process of dialogue, meaning-making, and growth.
