Connie Seth, LISW

Connie Seth is an Iowa-licensed social worker, LISW, with 30 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and other mood and behavioral issues.

Her style is direct and practical. Sessions focus on clear goals and skills you can use between meetings. She adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation rather than following a fixed script.

Connie draws on approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address distressing thoughts, emotional regulation, and behavior change. She also uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques when people want short-term, goal-oriented work. Trauma-focused methods are part of her work when past events contribute to current problems.

Typical sessions include talking through recent problems, identifying patterns that keep things stuck, and practicing concrete skills. She often helps people break large problems into manageable steps and track small changes over time. Parents and adults who are tied up in family conflict or caregiver strain may find this practical focus useful.

Connie has worked across many settings during her career and brings that breadth to sessions. She tends to be straightforward about next steps and about what to try when a strategy isn’t helping. If you want a clear plan and hands-on tools for problems at home, she may be a good fit.
