Therapists in Iowa

Greetings and Salutations! I am Jessica Brumfield, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Being proactive by seeking help during challenging times is an act of strength. As we progress through life, our perspectives, needs and goals change, which can cause stress, even lead to feeling unfulfilled. Experiencing difficulties in relationships, at work, pressure from family or being uncertain about the future are common issues that often lead people to therapy. You are not alone. Many clients seek to learn coping skills, how to foster healthy relationships, become motivated or want to figure out how to strike a balance in their lives. Therapy has a learning curve and it requires effort, patience, and openness. Results are reflective of the work that is put into it. The goals and pace of sessions will be by your design. I am committed to creating a non-judgmental space and partnering with you to explore your challenges, build on your strengths and make progress towards the changes that you want to see. I look forward to learning more about you and working together. ;)

Welcome and congratulations on choosing you! I enjoy working with people (16 and up) from any background, ethnicity, gender - people are people. I draw upon over 25 years of providing therapeutic services to assist you in reaching your goals for treatment. Counseling is as unique as a fingerprint so we will develop a plan together that best meets your needs for wellness, growth, and an improved quality of life. You get to be heard; lead the way! I am here to support and empower you throughout this process.

Hello! My name is Dawn and I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker. I have 25 years of experience Working in Community Mental Health Organizations and in Private Practice settings. I live in Iowa and also travel frequently with my life partner. I work with clients affected by depression, anxiety, communication, inter and intrapersonal relationship difficulties. My expertise that I bring you includes building blocks of healthy relationships: 1. Clear communication 2. Emotional regulation 3. Self-worth 4. Compassion 5. Insight 6. Ability to acknowledge and verbalize others strengths and emotions. I worked as a bachelor’s level social worker for 4 years prior to Graduate School, achieving my independent license in Social Work, I have worked in private group practice, started my own individual practice and currently work in a community mental health setting. My approach to therapy is client centered: clients are the experts of their lives, and we work together on the direction an individual determines. Through a strengths-based and solutions-focused lens, I draw on multiple treatment modalities to guide clients in identifying strengths and developing treatment plans that accomplish their goals. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I assist clients in exploring relationships among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to aid in discovering dysfunctional thought patterns leading to self-destructive behaviors and beliefs. Using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I support clients through developing skills: mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotion regulation with the goal of moving clients towards a life involving the capacity for experiencing joy and freedom. If clients are open to it, we also work using an internal family systems approach. This work goes inside your own system and identifies different parts that can be helpful or may need updating as you grow and develop. Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy exercise, yoga, walking and hiking and meditation practice in the beautiful outdoors. I also enjoy my life partner and our two dogs. Izzy is the newest member to our family and is a sweet, sassy handful!I am incredibly grateful for my precious support system of family, friends and colleagues. SPECIALTIES Stress, Anxiety Relationship issues Self esteem Depression Intra and Interpersonal Communication Coping with life changes Bipolar disorder, emotional intensity disorder, anger management and self-care.

Where is home? Where do I belong? Will I ever feel settled? If you find yourself asking these questions, let us navigate it together. Life is unscripted and messy but if you are ready to embrace the unsettled feeling, today is a good day to start. I had the pleasure to live and work overseas for 8 years and here to support those that were once an expat or Third Culture Kid. I refer to myself as a Third Culture Adult, finding comfort in working with those from a transient lifestyle, even though my first time living outside my passport country was in my 20s. My background began as a teacher and school counselor till I left education to advance my professional career to more clinical counseling. I can support a variety of life stages from post high school exploration, careers/university to adulthood hurdles. I take a Humanistic approach where I like to build a rapport and relationship with each person and support your story. As an unknown source said "Never judge my story by the chapter you walk in on."
