THERAPIST IN WEST DES MOINES, IA

Narrative Therapy in West Des Moines, IA
ONE STORY AT A TIME.

Narrative Healing Therapy is a private counseling practice in West Des Moines, Iowa. Our therapists use narrative therapy, which helps you see your life as a story you can understand and retell on your own terms, along with EMDR and expressive arts. We work with individuals and couples on anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, and sex and intimacy concerns, in person or by secure telehealth.

Your Story
Matters Here

At Narrative Healing Therapy, we believe people are more than what they have been through. Our therapists offer a space where you can be honest, feel supported, and begin to make meaning of your experiences.

“Healing does not mean erasing your story. It means finding new ways to carry it, understand it, and move forward with more self-trust.”

Stories of Healing & Growth

"EMDR has helped me more than I ever realized it could! Jackie is patient and guides me through each session. She’s kind and validates my feelings and experiences. I feel like she genuinely cares about me as a person. I've seen a lot of progress in myself since I've been working with her."

— Anonymous Client

"I've had many therapists and never truly felt like I found the right fit—until Jackie. I've made more progress with her in a few months than years with other therapists. She challenges me and pushes me to do better every session. I'm so grateful to have found her."

— Anonymous Client

"Jackie has been a supportive presence over multiple years working through a variety of vulnerable fears, thoughts, and feelings. Whether we’re meeting for maintenance or tackling challenges in my life, I leave every appointment feeling better and equipped to tackle whatever has been bothering me."
