Hi! My name is Helen Roberts, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa. I’ve been counseling children, teens, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years - but in my experience, that’s not really what you want to know. What you really want to know is, can I help you? And is there hope for things to change for you? As a matter of fact, there is, and I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to take that journey towards healing and empowerment with you. We can change the direction of your life right now and give you hope and power again!

Ifeoma Turner

Therapist

Virtual • Iowa


I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Temple University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in managing anxiety, navigating depression, and healing from past trauma.

My approach blends evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a spiritually grounded perspective. While therapy is rooted in clinical skill, I also create space for deeper connection—often integrating spiritual awareness into the work for those who are open to it. I believe healing is not just mental, but also deeply internal and, at times, spiritual.

Therapist

Virtual • Iowa


Many of the clients I work with come to me feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or weighed down by experiences they’ve carried for far too long. They may struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship patterns rooted in early attachment wounds, or the lingering impact of trauma. Others are navigating life transitions, loss, or changes in identity that leave them uncertain about their next steps. At the core, most are seeking relief, clarity, and a stronger sense of themselves. They want to feel more regulated, more confident, and more capable of moving through daily life without being held back by old patterns or emotional pain.

Hello! My name is Hannah, I’m a licensed therapist with over 10 years of experience. I strongly value providing trauma-informed care and treatment that is grounded in safety, steadiness, and that is focused on the client’s self-determined need. To this day, the therapeutic relationship and alliance remains one of the strongest predictor of the effectiveness of therapy. As such, I firmly value the therapeutic relationship and will work to provide a safe and secure dynamic to support clients as they work towards their individualized goals. As a provider, my focus is on helping clients build emotional regulation, self-trust, and enhances their natural resilience at a pace that honors their nervous system and lived experience.
