My name is Gale Nienhuis and I am a Private Practice Therapist and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My main areas of practice include depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief and loss, and coping with chronic illness. Life is complex and very difficult at times, but if we are willing we can find the ability to move forward in a positive and meaningful way. Healing takes courage and we all have courage. It may take a bit of digging to find that courage. My philosophy and approach to therapy are based in helping clients and families use their personal and collective strengths.
