“Emotional wellbeing is just as important to us as Breathing is!” We all need to know that we deserve happiness even if we aren’t used to it. I have been a Social Worker for 28 years. In that time, I have worked in Community Mental Health, Rehab to home and long-term care, and hospice. I believe creating an environment of trust and safety is the most important part of the therapeutic relationship. I have experience with grief, depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, and trauma.
I have been trained in EMDR, use neurofeedback, Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems and parts work, some somatic work, and DBT skills training. Above all, I work to establish and maintain a strong therapeutic relationship because if we can't work well together, nothing else will be helpful.
If you have never been in therapy before, I encourage you just to take that leap and get in touch with me. We all have things in our lives that may need attention. Let's live our best lives moving forward. Hello Iowans! Just wanted to add that I have recently been licensed in your great state as well and can provide you all telehealth. Please reach out.
