About Me

I received my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Simpson College, and went on to obtain my Master's Degree in Counseling from Iowa State University. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. 

​

My theoretical approach is eclectic and rooted in Relational-Cultural Theory (RCT) and The Adaptive Information Processing Model used with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).  I am a Certified EMDR Clinician & Consultant.

​

The most central idea in my work is the belief that every person has within themself the ability to heal, to change & to live a meaningful life.

​

I am a proud Mom of 3 amazing sons & a rescue dog named Shadow. I've had my share of  "life lessons" and have found the most impactful part of my journey is to be constantly reminded that I am never walking it alone. & neither are you.
