Have you ever thought about seeing a counselor but never followed through due to fears of change or judgement? The change process can be scary and intimidating.

We all deserve a safe place to have to be validated and heard when life may become overwhelming and full of stress.

I believe therapy is a process that takes effort from both the client and the therapist working together to achieve the client's goals.

I believe that clients have control of their treatment and can achieve a lot more than they think they can. I will work with clients in providing the skills that will help them achieve their goals. I am licensed in both Iowa and Nebraska and can diagnose co-occurring disorders.

I work with individuals using evidence-based interventions to help address a variety of concerns. My approach when working with children and adolescents is to include the family unit in the therapeutic process to help set and achieve goals whenever possible.

I aim to help clients develop the skills to maintain their growth long after therapy is over and generalize their skills to other situations life may put in their path.

Since 1990 I've helped couples create loving, lasting relationships. A premarital inventory (FOCCUS or PREPARE) pinpoints relationship strengths, and helps resolve conflicts. PREP communication and problem-solving skills help you find win-win solutions. PREP Couples have greater satisfaction and 1/2 the risk of divorce. If you feel like giving up, couple counseling identifies the real problems and how to resolve them. If kids are driving you crazy, "Love & Logic" keeps you calm & kind as kids develop respect, responsibility & self-esteem. Individual counseling helps overcome anger, depression, fears, stress; and develop assertiveness, self-esteem, social comfort, willpower.
