Services
I am a client-centered therapist with over 27 years experience working with children, adolescents and adults.
My Goal is to work WITH you to create a plan that feels like help.
I strive to create a therapeutic space that is supportive and safe in order to foster growth and change.
I am knowledgeable about the biological, emotional, relational and spiritual aspects of mental health and have both respect and compassion for the complexity of these factors in your life.
As a therapist, I am interested in gaining an understanding of your unique needs and developing a plan together.
I am currently taking new clients in Grinnell and Newton (office space in both towns).
Next day appointments are often available and I can accommodate evening and some Saturday appointments.
I utilize a client-centered approach to therapy and prefer to focus on strengths and solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
I focus on the therapeutic relationship as the means of implementing change.
As a clinician I take environmental, relational, and emotional factors in to account during treatment.
An addiction is a chronic disorder in which an individual is blinded by a substance, or engages in an activity, that gives them an immense amount of pleasure but has become detrimental to their everyday life.
Compulsive behaviors and addictions can temporarily provide confidence, control, validation or other emotions lacking in one's life, but the behavior may not stop until the root of the problem is addressed.
Addiction changes the brain through the limbic system, also known as the "brain reward system."
We all have moments of frustration whether they be associated with a friend, a family member, or a disagreement in your everyday life, but there are several positive strategies to utilize when it comes to dealing with conflict.
According to the Office of Human Resource Development at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, conflict is understood by analyzing various behaviors and the consequences each behavior produces on individuals living the dilemma.
Avoidance: This is the person who wishes to ignore the problem and will allow it to dissipate or squander.
Factors of everyday life can put an abundant strain on a relationship.
Severe stressors may include resentment, infidelity, intimacy issues, lack of trust, and miscommunication.
When problems go unresolved, or a partner is suffering from mental illness or health complications, one can feel helpless or have feelings of guilt or shame.
Communicating effectively on both parts can alleviate emotional anxiety from subjects of all kind.
Couples often seek couples or marriage counseling when the relationship is at a standstill, or if they are unsure whether or not the relationship is worth salvaging.
