About Me

I provide virtual mental health therapy to clients throughout the state of Iowa. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Loras College and my Master’s degree from St. Ambrose University. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in a variety of human service roles, including personal trainer, caregiver, wellness coach, group home worker, and inpatient mental health worker, which shaped my holistic understanding of well-being.

My approach to therapy is integrative, laid back, non-judgmental and confidential. I prioritize creating a space where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. My goal is to help you gain clarity, build insight, and move toward the goals you set at a pace that feels right for you.

I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy® (ART) which is a brief, structured form of psychotherapy that helps people process distressing memories and symptoms by changing how those memories are stored in the brain. ART removes triggers by erasing negative images from view. ART uses guided eye movements and visualization techniques to reduce emotional and physical reactions to past experiences while allowing you to stay fully in control. Many clients report significant relief in just a few sessions. Trauma and many other issues can often be resolved in just one session.If you’d like to learn more, click here.

What to Expect

Sessions are held virtually on a secure and confidential platform, so you can attend from wherever you feel most comfortable in your home. When it’s time for your appointment, you simply click the link to join from your phone, laptop, or tablet.

Sessions typically last 30–60 minutes.

The first session is a little different from the others. We’ll spend some time talking about your background, what brought you to therapy, and any questions you may have. Together, we can begin identifying goals and discussing what you hope to get out of therapy.

In future sessions, we’ll focus on the concerns that matter most to you, working together to better understand what you’ve been experiencing and explore ways to move forward.
