Online Christian Therapist Specializing in Trauma in Iowa
Do you find yourself unable to move on from the hard things that happened to you? Maybe you feel overwhelmed by negative emotions when thinking about the past. Perhaps you know you are safe now but your body doesn’t feel that way.
You might seem fine on the outside, while inside you feel exhausted, on edge, numb, angry, or unable to shake the feeling that something isn't right.
Trauma doesn’t have to dictate your life. Therapy can help you release the chains of your past and move forward with hope and healing.
How Therapy Can Help
Understand & Process Your Experience
Therapy isn’t about simply reliving painful events. Rather, we will work to understand how what happened to you shapes the way you view and interact with the world and begin developing healthier ways of responding.
Build Healthy Coping Skills
We will learn tools to help you stay grounded, navigate difficult emotions, and develop a sense of safety in your day to day life.
Connect With Yourself Again
Often your sense of identity changes after trauma. It can impact your trust in yourself and your trust in others. In therapy, you can work to build your confidence, develop healthy relationships, and reconnect with parts of yourself that feel lost.

Christian Therapy for Trauma
For many, trauma not only affects how they see themselves, but it also affects how they understand God and their faith. Trauma can leave you with many questions about God, His sovereignty, and His goodness.
For clients who desire, I provide Christ-centered counseling that integrates faith and evidence-based approaches to help you heal from your trauma and reconnect with your faith.
