Female Therapists in Muscatine, IA

Sometimes life happens and leaves us saying "I just can't handle it anymore!" You are not alone and you're in the right place to find help. I am a Christian counselor that uses evidence based approaches that nourish the mind, body, and spirit. My passion is working with couples and families. I specialize in relationship concerns, addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Change is possible and I'm committed to providing a safe environment for you to grow.

I have made it my professional mission to assist and support adults who have been struggling with generational trauma, complex trauma, PTSD, and dysfunctional attachment styles that cause issues in relationships, work, school, and families.

Welcome! Working through depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and other mental health concerns can be difficult and intimidating to do alone. Therapy can be a helpful tool if you are feeling stuck and looking for a change. I work to provide non-judgmental insight, while recognizing that each client is their expert of their own experiences.

You feel alone and lost, using all your effort to not lose control. Trauma can hold you back and prevent you from living in the present, but it doesn't have to stay that way. You can create the life you want, and we can make that happen together! Humans don’t exist in a vacuum; we all need support, encouragement, and a nonjudgmental listener. That’s the foundation of our work together. My goal as your therapist is to provide a safe, welcoming environment for you to foster growth and healing.

You deserve to be happy, let me help! I support women with feelings of stress, overwhelm and sadness to achieve a sense of calm, self-confidence and wellness. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and other mood difficulties.

I offer a Christian perspective. With compassion and understanding, I work with you to help build on strengths, learn new coping skills, and attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing.

As a therapist, I strive to view each client in a holistic manner and to ultimately create a non-judgmental space where clients of any background can feel comfortable and supported. My therapeutic philosophy relies heavily on the fact that humans do not exist in a vacuum; we are all a part of larger systems that impact our mental and physical health. I am passionate about working with individuals from marginalized communities which is why a holistic understanding of each client and non-judgement is so important to me. I make it my mission to remain non-judgmental and to understand all clients to the best of my ability.

The world we live in can be overwhelming at times. The stresses of family, work, school, and other responsibilities in our lives can add up to create overwhelming stress – additional stresses can also come from messages we hear in the media or through social media platforms. Sometimes, these issues can be easier to manage with a little extra help. When you are ready to reach out, help is available.
