Our counselors provide therapy in West Des Moines, IA

I am a licensed independent social worker (LISW) with over 31 years of experience supporting individuals across the lifespan in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I work with individuals, couples, teens, young adults, and adults age 65 and older navigating anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, trauma histories, grief and loss, life transitions, relational challenges, and work-life balance concerns.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from the University of Iowa. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and practical. I integrate eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies to support emotional regulation, reduce distress, and strengthen insight.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or ready for change, you do not have to navigate it alone. I believe healing happens through connection, patience, and compassion. When you are ready, I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you take the next step toward balance, healing, and meaningful change.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 16 years of experience supporting clients through challenges such as self-esteem concerns, mood disorders, trauma, and major life transitions. I aim to meet you exactly where you are in your journey and provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to navigate the complexities of life with greater confidence and clarity.

I earned my master’s degree in community counseling from Argosy University. I use an integrated approach that includes cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and reality-based techniques to help clients build practical coping skills, gain insight, and strengthen their sense of control in their daily lives.

I am excited that you are taking this step toward healing, and it would be an honor to support you along the way. I am committed to offering a nonjudgmental space where we can explore your strengths and work toward meaningful growth at a pace that feels safe for you. You deserve care, compassion, and a path forward—and I look forward to walking it with you.
