About

Hello! I have earned my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I enjoy working with teenagers, adults, and older adults on issues related to depression, anxiety, grief and loss, identity, trauma, and life transitions. In session, I like to be interactive and will use traditional talk therapy along with creative methods for communicating. Many people enjoy using arts, crafts, music, and movement in session, so I help foster an environment that helps people feel safe enough to express themselves through these modalities. I am available Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays in our Des Moines office location and offer the choice of in-person and/or virtual (Telehealth) appointments. Please reach out and we can get you set up with your first appointment. If you are nervous to get started, just know that that is a very normal feeling. During our first session together, I will take my time to get to know you and understand what you are hoping to achieve out of therapy. Then, you can decide if you feel this is the right fit for you! -Annie
