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

I want to make your first contact with me as easy as possible. Feel free to contact me via email if calling and scheduling an appointment feels overwhelming. I will do my best to make things as seamless as I can.
