The Science of Healing and the Art of Living
Using evidence-based practices, I help individuals heal so they can get back in control of their lives and feel more calm, clear, confident, and inspired. We unearth and eliminate the outdated patterns that leave you exhausted, anxious, or depressed. We rewrite the scripts, identify your strengths, and build skills, so you can heal and live into the person you want to be for this next chapter of your life.
I take a humanistic approach to this work which leads with compassion and recognizes your innate strength and wisdom. I am an indomitable champion of individual potential and the human spirit and will work with you to create lasting change, because the world needs what you have to offer.
I am EMDR trained and draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness/yoga-based practices, positive psychology, and brain science.
I have spent the last 25 years in some form of advising, mentoring, coaching, and counseling. I have a Master of Social Work in clinical psychotherapy from the University of Iowa, a BA in Philosophy and Art from Northwestern University, and an MBA/JD in strategy from the University of Iowa. I spent my early career as a wealth manager, attorney, and mediator.
Above all, I am a seeker of how we live the good life and began counseling to help others on their journey toward a healthy, meaningful life lived from the inside out.
