About Cynthia Pelton

I am licensed in Iowa with 16 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and bipolar disorder.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
