Find a therapist in Iowa — covered by insurance

I'm a licensed counselor in Iowa (in-person sessions in Manchester), and Texas, with eight years of experience in the counseling field. I earned my MS in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University in 2019 and am a doctoral candidate (ABD) in trauma counseling from Liberty University with an expected graduation in summer 2026.

I have training and experience in trauma-informed treatment. Although I utilize others,t he primary modalities I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Whether you’re dealing with a long-standing struggle or a new crisis, finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. I offer a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel supported from the start. Whatever you’re carrying, we’ll work through it together and find a path forward that helps you feel better.

Dealing with grief, loss, or trauma? Feeling disconnected, alone, and unhappy? Struggling with relationships, addiction, or painful wounds from childhood? If you said yes to any of these, I can help. Often, the burdens of trauma manifests itself in mysterious ways and can lead to various concerns such as depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, trust issues, isolation, and shame. These challenges can hinder healthy relationships and self-care.

Life can feel like a lot sometimes, whether you're navigating anxiety, grief, addiction, or the emotional weight of caring for a loved one. Maybe things feel tangled, or you're used to being the strong one for everyone else. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I want to understand your story, what’s been heavy lately, and what you’re hoping will feel different. Together, we can begin to make sense of it all and help you feel more steady, supported, and like yourself again.

I am a counselor that will meet you where you are and challenge you to get to where you want to be, by being warm, understanding, and compassionate. I view trauma as a whole body experience and work with you at your pace. I have more than 10 years of experience working with those who have experienced trauma both as an advocate and therapist.

I work with women in their 20s and 30s who are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, or that overwhelming sense that life should feel more manageable by now. A lot of my clients have tried therapy before and felt like it wasn't clicking, like they were spinning their wheels. That's exactly the kind of stuck I help with.

I'm a holistic practitioner who considers a whole person perspective. I originally graduated from Aspen University in 2019 with my Masters in Psychology and Addiction studies. Then I pursued my Doctorate degree in Metaphysical Humanism with a specialization in Kvantum Energy Healing ftom the International Church of Metaphysical Humanism as well as became a clinical Hypnotherapist from the Hypnosis Motivation Institute.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Florida, New Jersey, Iowa, and Massachusetts, with several years of experience supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I earned my Master’s in Social Work and have since worked in both residential and outpatient settings, helping adults navigate complex emotional experiences and build lasting resilience.

I’m trained in EMDR therapy and integrate evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals. My style is warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental, creating a space where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves, heal from the past, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.

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.
