Many others are people grappling with generalized anxiety and depression from trauma or genetics.
Anxiety? Depression? Mood Disorder? On the spectrum? There are many areas where I can help. I am an Iowa-born mental health counselor with a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology. I also help clients in Wisconsin and Arizona. My extensive experience can help with many mental health challenges and I will work with teens. I often use a solutions-focused approach. I get to the heart of the issue and can help people feel better faster. Anxiety is often the primary issue. However, I have helped people out of serious depressive issues and guided them through treatment of mood disorders. I am also Neurodivergent and get it. Let me help.

My goal is to make self-growth and change something feasible to commit to (even when you simultaneously feel stuck or fearful in the process). With a collaborative, person-centered approach I am here to help you navigate life’s challenges while also honoring our humanness. I will help you explore solutions for change and provide tools to help recognize the situations that are outside of your control. I have a passion for working with those struggling with mood regulation, substance abuse, emotional intensity, codependency, and destructive internal or external behaviors. Strong emphasis on DBT and CPT as well as MI techniques.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
