About

I am a mental health counselor licensed in Iowa. I obtained my Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology and Criminal Justice from Iowa State University located in Ames, Iowa. I went on to obtain my Master of Science degree in Clinical Psychology from Walden University located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, relationship issues, family issues, career challenges, and addiction. I have helped individuals ages 5 years to 100 years old.

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, no matter one's race, religion, sex, gender, interests, or background. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, behavioral, and motivational interviewing therapies. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
