Specialities:

OCD, Anxiety, Trauma,

Relationship Challenges, Life Transitions

Our lives are shaped by the experiences, emotions, and connections we carry, and exploring those layers can be transformative. My hope is to provide you with a supportive, compassionate, and safe counseling space as you navigate these layers to achieve self-discovery, healing, and growth.

I am passionate about supporting those impacted by OCD, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Through an integrative and psychodynamic approach, I draw from evidence-based modalities like CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and IFS-informed parts work to promote client growth and wellness. I have specific training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT) for the treatment of OCD. My approach emphasizes use of evidence-based treatment through a compassionate, holistic, and person-centered lens.

I have a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Iowa and also hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from the University of Iowa. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Iowa, and I welcome adults as well as children and adolescents over the age of 8 for individual counseling.
