I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are — without judgment, pressure, or having to “have it all figured out.” With more than 20 years of experience as a licensed therapist, I work alongside clients to help them better understand themselves, navigate difficult seasons of life, and create meaningful, lasting change. Many of the people I work with are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, life transitions, low self-esteem, or the emotional weight of caring for others while trying to care for themselves. Some feel overwhelmed or stuck, while others simply want a deeper understanding of who they are and what they need in order to feel more grounded and fulfilled. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and person-centered. I believe each individual’s story, experiences, and strengths matter, and I tailor therapy to fit your unique needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we can explore patterns that may no longer serve you, strengthen coping skills, improve self-awareness, and build a healthier relationship with yourself and others. I have experience supporting young adults, older adults, caregivers, and individuals facing major life changes or questions around identity, purpose, relationships, and personal growth. Whether you are navigating a difficult transition or simply looking for a space to process and heal, my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout the process. I am licensed in Iowa and Arizona and am honored to support clients on their path toward healing, resilience, and self-discovery.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

I am currently licensed in Iowa and Nebraska with over 26 years of professional work experience. The bulk of my career has been in community-based settings as I felt this type of setting was where I could give back to those that have helped me and my family of origin. I had a mother that was bi-polar and had a significant borderline personality disorder. Her first major hospitalization occurred following my birth. I have grown up in the Midwest but have lived in California and South Carolina as well as serving in the US military with one deployment to Afghanistan in which I served as the highest-ranking enlisted member of the Human Intelligence component of a Brigade Combat Team. I have a grown gay son and feel that my own healing process in coming to terms with my feelings toward my mentally ill mother were greatly facilitated by friendships in the queer community and feel a great depth of gratitude and respect for this community. I have been divorced, struggled with my own addiction, co-dependency and mental health issues throughout my lifetime and have carried various mental health diagnoses at different times in my life as well. I don't look at myself as complete expert on life but to quote Brene' Brown: "I might just be a little further down the road in recovery is all". I view therapy as more of an art form in that there are skills and techniques that can be learned and applied to the work of art that is being created, but it is the process involved that brings out the beauty of the final product. I understand the importance of being heard and feel that a person’s truth can emerge through a collective experience in the interaction and engagement with another human being. I hope to bring my experience in life and working with others to your life experience. I view it as a privilege to be able to be a part of the understanding of another person’s life and hope to be part of this journey with you.
