Connie Seth, LISW

Connie Seth is an Iowa-licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression, and related concerns. Her practice also addresses relationship and family issues, parenting strain, self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue.

Connie focuses on clear, practical conversations. She shapes sessions around what the client brings and the problems they want to change. That can mean looking at how thoughts and behaviors keep patterns going. It can also mean learning skills to regulate intense feelings and handle conflict more calmly.

Her approach uses evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused techniques, and Trauma-Focused work. Those tools are used to reduce distress, improve coping, and build more effective ways of responding to stress and anger.

Connie has worked across many settings over three decades, giving her a broad view of common life problems like caregiving stress, chronic illness, divorce, financial strain, isolation, and impulsive behavior. She brings that experience into straightforward sessions focused on realistic steps and skill practice.

People who reach out can expect a respectful, matter-of-fact style aimed at practical progress. Conversations usually include clear goals, skill-building, and short-term strategies you can try between sessions.
