I provide specialty mental health care based in Ankeny, Iowa, offering Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), and trauma work.
I believe you already carry everything you need to heal — sometimes you just need the right support to access it.
Healing doesn't have to be slow, stuck, or surface-level. I bring over a decade of clinical experience, Level 1 and Level 2 IFS training, and specialized KAP certification to a practice that is as warm and human as it is clinically
