I specialize in grief, relationships, parenting, and attachment, with special interest in non-death related losses. I hold a BGS from the University of West Florida, an MSW from the University of Alabama, and have completed extensive continuing education including the University of Vermont's End-of-Life doula program. I am a TBRI® Practitioner, WRAP® Facilitator, and am a Gottman Seven Principles Leader.
I am passionate about helping individuals realize that they have the ability to choose growth and freedom. I enjoy helping individuals find their identity, self confidence and the greatness within themselves that will allow them to achieve the growth that they want. I have experiencing helping individuals with depression, anxiety, life transitions, spiritual issues, grief and trauma work. I work primarily with adults.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Iowa
Searching for therapists in Iowa starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across the state, needs and available therapists can vary between urban and rural areas, so it helps to look for experience that matches your goals. You may be looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, or stress. As you compare Iowa therapists, review their listed specialties, therapy styles, and areas of focus, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples therapy.
Location, schedule, and format also shape whether a therapist is a practical fit. If you live near Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, or Iowa City, you may find more in-person options, while virtual therapy can expand your search across Iowa. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others prefer the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. Before booking, check whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how they describe their approach and what a first session may include.
The cost of therapy in Iowa can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Headway makes it easier to search for Iowa therapists who take insurance, compare availability, and see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and you can confirm your specific coverage when you enter your insurance details. Browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
