I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Iowa, who has been working in the counseling field for over 20 years. I primarily serve adults and adolescents who struggle with depression and anxiety, relationship distress, stress management, eating concerns, and histories of trauma.
My therapeutic approach centers on utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). The basic premise of CBT is that emotions are difficult to change directly, so CBT targets emotions by building skills that enable the individual to change thoughts and behaviors that are contributing to the distressing emotions.
The guiding principle of my practice is to help clients develop and learn practical, real-world strategies and skills that allow them to change ineffective thoughts and behaviors and thus build the kind of life they want to live. I offer individual counseling, couples counseling, and group skills training.
