Growth Through Creativity

I recognize that it takes a great deal of vulnerability and courage to embark on the therapeutic journey. My approach is trauma-informed and incorporates art therapy, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral, client-centered, solution-focused, and strengths-based models.

About

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Board-Certified, Registered Art Therapist (ATR-BC) who has been practicing since 2011. Originally from Northwest Iowa, I graduated from the University of Iowa in 2005 with a dual degree in Studio Art and English. After working in research for a few years, I moved to Norfolk, Virginia, to complete my Master’s of Science in Art Therapy and Counseling. I graduated from Eastern Virginia Medical School in 2011 and started working as an in-home therapist in North Carolina for a year. I then moved to Flagstaff, Arizona, where I worked in an acute inpatient behavioral health setting until 2020. Missing the Midwest, I returned to Iowa and settled in the Des Moines area with my husband and two kids. In my free time, I enjoy reading, painting, cooking, running, practicing yoga and spending time with my friends and family.
