At Good Life Therapy, we know the decision to come to therapy is personal and takes both vulnerability and courage. As we work to create a life of meaning and purpose, we face anxiety, uncertainty, and other life stressors along our way. If our discomfort outweighs our ability to enjoy life, or our coping skills become outdated or less effective, therapy can be a turning point to help redirect you down a path of your choosing.
Therapy can help you gain a sense of control over your life and emotional well being, to help you find and live your good life.
If you are considering beginning individual, couple’s, or group therapy please take a few minutes to learn more about our clinicians and the services we offer.
If you have any questions please feel free to give us a call at 515-679-3947 or reach out via email at [email protected]
***Currently Accepting New Clients*** Do you find yourself overwhelmed and need someone to talk to? Are you tired of struggling? Do you feel like you are a burden to your supports? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then I welcome you to the beginning of your journey to healing. It can be difficult to deal with stressors and trauma alone. Therapy is a safe place where you will be able to unpack your hurt and concerns at your own pace.

What are people saying about counseling & mental health in San Francisco, CA?
This is a review for counseling & mental health in San Francisco, CA:
“May is such a game changer! I could not recommend working with her more. She really helped me unlock the root of some of my blocks and be able to move forward in a different way. While May lets you drive the direction of your session after the initial groundwork is laid and she clearly understands your goals and where you are coming from, her thoughtful questions and nurturing approach offers so much guidance and insight along the way. I have spent a lot of time going to different types of therapy and different therapists and finally committing to going to May has offered so many breakthroughs and given me the tools to move forward on my own for the first time in a long time.”

Our mental and emotional health shapes us. If it’s strong, we feel confident in our decisions and are able to navigate our problems. But when our mental and emotional health falters, we can feel lost, confused, and adrift.
Consider these three scenarios:
- Jake, only 10 years old, is grieving the death of his pet dog. Jake grew up with this dog — it was his constant companion and its death has made him feel incredibly stressed. Unable to cope, he lashes out in ways he never has before.
- Naveed has been a rower since his college days. Now in his fifties, his arthritis has recently made it impossible for him to row. He sits in front of his property’s lake and stares at the water, longing to be back in it. Each day away from his boat makes him feel more and more disengaged with the world.
- Zoe used to love taking evening walks in the neighborhood near her apartment. But after being attacked one evening, she hasn’t felt safe going out alone. She stays in her apartment, afraid of the outside world and the people in it.
Each of the above three people is experiencing loss — loss of a pet, loss of a physical function and a hobby, and loss of freedom. But each situation may require a different course of action. An individual therapist, family therapist, professional counselor, clinical psychologist, or another licensed professional can address the unique symptoms surrounding each person’s situation and create a treatment plan that’s specific to the individual’s needs.
Whether you’ve experienced loss, depression, or another mental illness or disorder, we want to help you find stability and regain control. Consider setting up an appointment with one of our team members at Thriveworks Counseling West Des Moines to begin your treatment.
Can Counseling and Therapy Help Me?
For all its furniture and gadgets, the thing that makes a house a house is its structure. The beams, walls, and roof shelter you from the wind, rain, and other elements.
Counseling and psychotherapy can serve a similar function, providing protection against the challenges and difficulties that threaten our emotional and mental health. The coping techniques, tools, and self-care practices you learn from your therapist or counselor can shelter you from whatever comes your way.
To get there, you have to first address what causes you mental or emotional stress. For many of our clients, this can include the following:
- Stress
- Anger
- Divorce or separation
- Life transitions
- Physical illnesses
- Grief or loss
- Anxiety
- ADHD
- Behavioral issues
- Abuse or trauma
- Addiction
- Depression
After you set up an appointment with a mental health professional at Thriveworks Counseling West Des Moines, they’ll begin by assessing your concerns and creating a treatment plan that’s customized to fit your situation. Connect with us to schedule your first online therapy (virtual counseling) or in-person appointment.
