My husband and I recently moved back to Iowa after living in Colorado for the past 9 years. We have 2 children and 3 dogs, a few cats, goats, chickens and ducks. We love the outdoors and try to spend as much time in it as we can. We enjoy hiking, camping, snowboarding, snowshoeing, having family bike rides, and just soaking up the fresh air, sights and sun! I also enjoy baking, photography, and learning new things. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Hello! It takes courage and strength to know when to seek a happier or more fulfilled life through counseling and so I thank you for taking that first step. I have 9 years of experience in the counseling field and have been a licensed as a Professional Counselor in both Wyoming and Colorado for the last 6 years. I believe the most important part of counseling is building a trusting, comfortable and collaborative relationship so that is what I strive for most. I therefore vow to create a safe and non judgmental space for you as we begin our work together. My theoretical orientation is Person Centered or Rogerian in nature as I believe everyone is different and therefore everyone's view of his or her own world and the ability to change it is different as well. I also practice Strength Based and Solution Focused counseling as well to help clients meet the goals they set for themselves. I hold a Masters Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Argosy University in Denver, Colorado. I have worked with clients ages 2 years old through the lifespan and enjoy the diversity of working with many different clients of different backgrounds. I have worked in private practice, community mental health agencies and school districts in order to help people overcome obstacles and reach their ultimate goals in life. Everyone needs to feel heard and connected at different times in their life and that is what I am here for!

Hi, My name is Randee. "Don't Settle for Crumbs When You Can Have the Whole Cake" I am here to help you get the whole cake; be it having your voice, setting boundaries, honoring feelings, communicating clearly, achieving balance, feeling empowered, maintaining healthy relationships, and more. I am also here if you are feeling anxious, angry, depressed, experiencing PTSD, and more. I am also versed in teaching parenting skills, stages of life transitions, and grief and loss. Teaching you healthy communication skills will lead to positive behavior changes. My background is Family Systems. When I work with people I work at 3 different levels. Intra Psychically which is how you individually think, feel and behave. Inter-personally, how you are in relationships. And Multi-generationally, patterns of behavior you learned from your parents that you want to unlearn or keep those that suit you. I believe we are all born with invisible buckets inside of us. When we don't get our feelings met, we put them in the bucket. Over time, our buckets get full; we put another feeling into the bucket and it overflows. This is when people come to seek help. You might have feelings originating from 10 years ago, or only 2 days ago. Feelings don’t have time clocks and they don’t have intellect (otherwise they would be thoughts). We will work on feelings from your past and feelings from your present; they are still real. I honor people’s feelings and their need not to feel feelings so if something is too overwhelming we’ll go a little bit at a time. Goals in therapy will be set by you. I see myself as a light at the end of the tunnel. I won’t push you through or pull you through; I’ll walk with you. I give homework assignments for accountability and will teach you techniques, both of which are tailor-made for you. The most difficult thing in life is to feel. When you are feeling, you really are at your strongest. Therapy is the journey towards empowerment, changing behaviors, and getting your needs met. Starting therapy is a huge step and if you've come to this site, you have already taken your first step. I am happy to be your partner along this journey.

I am both a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Addictions Counselor (LAC) who in addition to working with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, adjustment disorders, and sex offense issues, specializes in Co-occurring addiction with mental health disorders. My counseling style is open, warm, non-judgmental and one of empowerment. I treat those with whom I interact with respect, compassion, and a sensitivity to meet you where you are. My counseling approach incorporates humanistic, cognitive behavioral with use of motivational interviewing. I attempt to fit my communication style with you to meet your unique needs. One caveat about me: I only am working evening shifts part-time for Betterhelp at this time. That means my available hours for members start at 5pm PST Wednesday through Friday evenings. However I do respond to messages as I can on other days, but again only in the evenings. It takes courage to explore avenues of change for a more fulfilling and happier life. The first steps can be the most difficult! I am here to support and empower you on your journey. I look forward to supporting you in this work! Some Background about me: I worked for four years in Colorado state prisons with sex offenders as well as several years in private organizations providing a wide range of services from substance abuse to depression and anxiety to work on cognitive distortions that perpetuate domestic violence. I have run a wide range of groups addressing areas of cognitive distortions as well as educational groups for behavior modification. While I have training in cases of Domestic Violence, I am not yet state certified to work with those who have been charged with a domestic violence offense. I am currently state approved to work with men who have been charged with a sexual offense. I am an avid yoga practitioner for health and wellness and have used exercise and healthy eating practices to manage and overcome my own past debilitating autoimmune deficiencies. I specialize in meditation and relaxation practices which have included the use of Acudetox (The 5-point Ear Acupuncture for Detox Protocol). I have written two books on the philosophy of nature as healer and meditation practices, and am working on a third book for expanding meditation practice.
