Hello! I’m Emily, a Licensed Master of Social Work (LMSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) based in Iowa, providing counseling for teens (13+), college students, adults, and couples. My background is rooted in substance use and mental health counseling, and I bring a trauma-informed lens to every session. I enjoy working with a diverse set of clients to support them through life transitions, chronic illness, addiction, trauma work, and/or mental health struggles. I welcome people with a wide range of experiences and identities and strive to create a space where your story is honored.
I’m trained in Brainspotting (BSP) and use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and strengths-based care, always prioritizing meeting clients where they are in their journey. I value a holistic perspective, seeing the whole person—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.
My passion is fostering genuine connection to create a safe, supportive space for healing and growth. I believe every person’s journey is unique, and I am committed to offering a collaborative environment where you feel seen, heard, and empowered.

I'm trained in Brainspotting (BSP), a powerful brain-body method for processing deeper emotional and somatic experiences, supporting healing beyond what talk therapy alone can offer.
