Great to meet you!

I am a licensed social worker in the states of Iowa and Missouri. I love my work and am eager to meet you and find how we can work together to make your life goals accessible. I have worked with dementia patients, children, and military families for more than a decade.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work on a strengths based perspective with my clients. I understand that life is a journey and we all have our own shortfalls and skills. I have an extensive background working with people with mental health concerns.

What you can expect from our first session

You can expect to develop a kind, affirming, open minded listener in me. I will work with you to achieve your goals and strive to be your best self.
