About Me

As a licensed therapist in Iowa with nearly four decades of clinical experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients address challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions, with a deep commitment to fostering personal growth and emotional resilience.

I bring extensive expertise in supporting older adults, veterans, and individuals struggling with panic disorders, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and post-traumatic stress. My approach centers on empowering clients to develop self-love, discover life purpose, and cultivate meaningful healing strategies.

Drawing from years of professional practice, I create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their deepest challenges. Whether you’re confronting social anxiety, processing past traumas, or seeking guidance through end-of-life transitions, I am dedicated to walking alongside you with understanding and professional support.

My therapeutic work is grounded in evidence-based practices that honor each individual’s unique journey, helping you build emotional strength, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and move toward greater personal fulfillment.
