I’m an Iowa licensed psychologist who believes therapy works best when it feels like a genuine human connection, two people walking together through a story with honesty, curiosity, and compassion. I work with adults navigating anxiety, adult ADHD, life transitions, crisis recovery, stress, purpose and meaning, and spiritually integrated concerns. My approach blends mindfulness, acceptance-based therapy, and strengths focused, client centered care, always grounded in the belief that people grow best when they feel seen, safe, and supported.
My background includes outpatient therapy, crisis intervention, higher education, and ministry. These experiences help me meet clients with steadiness during difficult moments and with curiosity during moments of growth. I bring a relational, grounded presence to the work, one that honors both the emotional and existential layers of your story.
I value real conversation and shared humanity. Together, we explore what matters most to you, make sense of your experiences, and build practical tools for resilience and clarity. I also believe in the healing power of playfulness and humor. Sometimes the most meaningful shifts happen when we rediscover the parts of ourselves that we’ve set aside.
