Our providers have openings the week of June 16th. If you are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or struggling to make sense of past trauma, you are not alone. Maybe you are a parent seeking compassionate support for your child, or someone who wants to build practical coping skills in a safe, affirming space. You want to feel heard and understood without judgment, and to move toward healing at your own pace. Your hope is to regain control, find peace, and create a life where you can thrive emotionally and authentically.

We specialize in play therapy for children, EMDR therapy for trauma recovery, and LGBTQ+ affirming counseling, tailoring each session to your unique needs. Together, we create a trusting partnership focused on your comfort and empowerment, helping you develop resilience and healing strategies that fit your life and goals.

You deserve support that respects your story and your pace. We invite you to reach out today for a free 15-minute consultation to explore if we are a good fit. We offer in-person sessions in West Des Moines and teletherapy for Iowa and Wisconsin, making it easier for you to begin your journey toward healing and hope.
