Introduction

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward? Life’s challenges—whether it’s depression, anxiety, grief, or navigating neurodivergence—can leave you feeling lost. I’m here to help you process these thoughts and emotions to find clarity, healing, and a path forward that feels right for you. Together, we’ll explore the root causes of your challenges to create meaningful and lasting change. I specialize in supporting individuals with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism. I also provide affirming care for LGBTQ+ individuals. In our first session, we'll explore what brings you to therapy and develop a personalized approach with tools and strategies that work for you. As a therapist in my hometown of Ankeny, I bring kindness, empathy, and understanding to each session, creating a space where you feel truly heard and supported. Ready to take the first step?
