Chronic Illness Therapists in Cedar Falls, IA

Everyone needs help sometimes. Depression, anxiety and grief are common responses to difficulties in life. These difficulties can stem from issues such as stress, trauma or serious health concerns but there is hope!

Accepting New Clients. Often what brings people to therapy can be summed up by the word “stuck”. You might be stuck in a rut; under a cloud of sadness or depression; caught in the spin cycle of anxiety; trying to process relationship issues or a big decision; or wanting to move past trauma or grief & loss. Maybe someone or something in your life has given you a soft or firm nudge in the direction of therapy. We’ll work through whatever you bring to therapy in a way that prepares you to meet any difficulties along the road while you reach your goals.

What is shared in counseling is confidential, sacred and empowering.
