Individual Teletherapy
For Iowa Residents
If you’re feeling stuck, unsteady or overwhelmed, but you’re ready to move forward and build a life that feels more aligned with who you truly are, I’m here to support you.
It’s not about starting over—it’s about reclaiming what’s always been within you.
My methods
My approach is warm, flexible, and focused on your goals. I integrate trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based approaches such as Mindful Hypnotherapy, Coherence Therapy, and parts-based approaches to explore how symptoms make sense in the context of past experiences, allowing old emotional learning to update and resolve.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies
Proven methods that work by cultivating awareness, presence and self compassion so you can find balance, clarity, and a deeper sense of well-being.
Mindful Hypnotherapy
This approach helps you access a calm, focused state where positive change can take root. Deepen self-awareness, reframe unhelpful thought patterns, and reclaim your strength.
Trauma Informed
A safe, compassionate space for healing. With a deep understanding of how trauma impacts the mind and body.
Coherence Therapy
An experiential approach that helps uncover the deeper emotional patterns behind unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By bringing these patterns into awareness, you can create meaningful, lasting change from within.
