I have been doing therapy for more years than I care to say and have the wisdom of age and experience to go with it! I usually can get new clients in within 1-2 weeks and have late afternoon, evening, and weekend appointments available. I see individuals, adults, couples, and families.

Thank you for reaching out. I work with clients seeking greater well-being across mental health, vocational, and life transitions. My goal is to help you achieve a stronger sense of balance and fulfillment in your life.

I help individuals navigate life transitions, trauma, relationship stress, anxiety, and the parts of themselves they’ve been carrying alone for too long. My approach is warm, honest, and empowering—focused on helping you heal, grow, and regain control of your life.

I work with individuals from all walks of life, helping them navigate a wide range of challenges including trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, personality disorders, and mood disorders. With a holistic approach, I tailor therapy to each person's unique experience, offering compassionate, evidence-based strategies to support healing and growth.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, and I provide therapy for individuals and couples navigating anxiety, relationship stress, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. I received my graduate training at the University of Hawai‘i, where I was strongly influenced by a holistic and culturally responsive perspective on healing.

I provide compassionate, strengths-based therapy for teens and adults, helping clients manage anxiety, stress, and meaningful change. With a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental approach, I also support clients working through trauma, substance use challenges, and depression.

We all need a little assistance from time to time in this complicated world. My clients come to sessions wanting and needing a variety of modalities and strategies. Our sessions build a relationship of trust and respect so we can eventually dive deep into the root of whatever is causing the upset.

Are you struggling? I provide an accepting space for clients to be heard and to learn strategies for creating the life that they want. Will you take the next step with me?

Using complementary therapy approaches, we'll work together to change long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions holding you back from a more fulfilling life. If you're seeking support through a challenging situation or ready to move in a new direction, I look forward to helping you achieve your goals.

I provide virtual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, and the impact of past or present relationship wounds. My approach blends attachment theory with IFS and narrative therapy to uncover unhelpful patterns and foster authentic growth aligned with your values and identity. Faith can be integrated into the process if desired.

I am enthusiastic about my work and engage attentively with consistent support, feedback and curiosity. Interactive and collaborative engagement guides the process with empathy and understanding. I genuinely look forward to helping you to feel better.

I believe you already have strengths within you—sometimes you just need support in uncovering them. If you're feeling overwhelmed or stuck, I offer a safe space where we can work together to build on what's working and develop practical strategies tailored to you. You don't have to navigate this alone. Let's move forward together.

I work with teens, young adults, individuals, and couples. I specialize in areas such as depression, anxiety, lgbtq+, grief, and trauma.

Anxious or feeling low? I work with people to help them find their spark, their sense of well being, and at times recover from the effects of trauma. We can work on helping you learn how to be kinder and more connected to yourself and what's around you, find ways to feel safer in mind and body, and to be more able to do what is meaningful to you.

This first step is often the hardest, so congrats on being brave and showing up today—choosing to participate in your healing and not relying on default settings any longer.

Therapy doesn't have to be scary or another task on your to-do list. I have years of experience working with adolescents and adults experiencing challenging times in their lives. I believe therapy should feel like a supportive conversation with empathy and validation at the core.

Whether it’s a single event or a lifetime of struggles, our thoughts and emotions often become so overwhelming that ordinary tasks can be difficult to complete. The journey of emotional healing can be challenging but empowering. It includes self-discovery and learning to trust intuition so you can embrace and accept who you are.

I earned my Master of Health Science degree from the University of Florida in Rehabilitation Counseling. I was first licensed as a counselor in Florida in 2001. Now I am licensed as a counselor in four states: New Hampshire, Florida, Iowa, and Louisiana. I have over 20 years of experience.

I've supported people through life's ups and downs. I believe therapy works best when it feels comfortable and collaborative, and I'm here to listen, encourage, and help you find tools that truly work for you.

My hope is to provide a safe and supportive space where you can be yourself and feel heard without judgment. I work with adults and young adults who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, overwhelming stress, negative thought patterns, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling not like themselves.

Congratulations on choosing you! I'm a licensed therapist. I help individuals navigate emotional struggles using active listening and compassion as we explore your needs.

I have my master's degree in social work from the University of Kentucky and I am independently licensed in Iowa. I have experience in most areas especially severe and persistent mental illness and substance use. If you don't like a therapist who will make you laugh from time to time I'm probably not the best one for you.

I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to process emotions and traumatic experiences. I consider all aspects of an individual and implement a bio-psycho-social-spiritual, culturally-sensitive and client-centered approach with individuals, couples, families and groups.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Supportive techniques in my practice.
