​Tele-Health Therapy:

One of the greatest benefits to receiving Tele-Health Therapy is in the ability to maintain a therapeutic relationship with a counselor regardless of physical proximity. Many clients find an increased sense of comfort engaging in therapy from a familiar place such as home or work. In addition, clients also find it easier to disclose personal information through an online format. 

I utilize a HIPPA-complaint platform called doxy.me to meet patients online. You will need to have access to a compatible device (computer, iPad, etc.) with internet and audio/visual capabilities.

If you experience technical difficulties during an online session, please contact me directly at (515.240.9474).

Tele-Health Therapy is not appropriate for everyone and certainly not in some situations. Consider seeking traditional mental health treatment in office for the following reasons:

1. If you are having thoughts of harming yourself (e.g. suicidal thoughts) or someone else (e.g. violent thoughts towards others) or psychotic symptoms. Please call 911 or 1-800-SUICIDE, which is the National Suicide Hotline.
2. If you are in an abusive or violent relationship.
3. If you have been seriously depressed.
4. If you have serious substance abuse dependence. 


Wellness Coaching:

A Wellness Coach is different from a therapist in that a therapist deals mainly in the areas of mental illness and sees patients in the office through their insurance. A Wellness coach, on the other hand, uses any space to focus on the person's specific life goals thus eliminating barriers to success. Don't want to use insurance? Don't want to go to an office? Let a coach come to you!!
