Hi. I have many years of doing substance abuse counseling in a hospital setting in Iowa. I have also worked as a school counselor with grades K - 8, I have taught Psychology courses on the college level and am familiar with all aspects of counseling theories and brain development. The college course I enjoyed teaching the most is "Wellness." This course discussed all aspects of both physical and mental health, which, of course are connected. I incorporate wellness and long-term balance in my counseling sessions.

My experience with Alice has been wonderful. She is just the humorous, stern, and smart person I needed to hear from when I was struggling most. She's very knowledgeable and responsive, and you can tell she wants you to feel your best.

I came to Alice with only the goal of working through my grief. I finished therapy with tools and knowledge to conquer not only my grief, but also the feelings of anxiety, guilt and more that I had to suppressed and dismissed. Each session I learned so much more about myself. Alice is a wonderful therapist. She listens to everything I say, and finds the little details of things which I overlook. She made me realize a lot of things about my past that make me the way I am now, and how I can break the cycles of my past. Alice is very reassuring, and always makes sure to point out things in my life which I should be proud of and feel good about. If I return to therapy in the future, I will no doubt choose Alice to be my therapist.
