About LifeWorks – West Des Moines

LifeWorks operates from 7545 Ashworth Road in West Des Moines. The site sits in Polk County, which shapes which public funding routes apply. Nearby communities include Clive, Grimes and Urbandale. Iowa draws people across long distances for treatment, so travel time is worth weighing against waiting time.

Outpatient care is delivered here, alongside telehealth appointments. Which level fits depends on the assessment rather than on what is available, so the useful first question is what that assessment involves. Care offered spans more than one level, which means someone can move between them without changing provider.

Treatment Services at LifeWorks

Outpatient care runs to a set weekly schedule, with evenings and weekends spent at home. That suits people holding down work or caring responsibilities, though it asks more of someone managing early recovery alone. Ask what the assessment involves before you commit.

Ask what happens at the end of the program as well as the beginning, since that is where plans usually thin out. Assessment decides the level of care, so ask what that involves and how quickly it can happen. Ask what the assessment involves before you commit.

LifeWorks Address, Location and Contact Information

The address is 7545 Ashworth Road, West Des Moines, IA 50266, in Polk County. The catchment reaches Clive, Grimes and Urbandale. Confirm what a program covers before traveling in, since the level of care listed is not always the level with capacity.

Telehealth appointments cover some contact where travel is difficult, which removes part of the journey for people further out. Ask what a first appointment involves and how long the current wait runs before making the trip. Waiting times vary with capacity, so call ahead rather than arriving unannounced.

How Much Does Treatment at LifeWorks Cost?

Cash payment for rehab in Iowa is usually $1,200 to $4,500 a month for standard outpatient care. No price list for LifeWorks was found when this page was written, so treat the Iowa figures as an estimate.

Expect the intake assessment, group therapy and individual counseling to be part of what you pay for. That is a reasonable guess based on how programs are normally priced, as LifeWorks’ own details were not found. A call to the facility will tell you what is included and what costs more.

Shryl Hoag is AMAZING. She listens and really cares. She doesn’t try to rush me or put words in my mouth as to how I’m feeling. She sees me on my worst days and doesn’t judge and listens when I really need her too.… She’s been a god send. She came into my life when I needed her the most and always has the best insight and information. Sometimes all u need is a listening ear and a smile and she always comes with just that.

I called to get an appointment, well....they asked my age (which is 59) and said the therapist doesn't take people that old. Um ok that is amazing-NOT. Keep driving on this place

Update: Lydia left the company to pursue another job. I apparently owe 100 dollars well I was supposed to see Lydia one last time and they canceled my appointment without telling me claiming they cannot let me see… anyone with an unpaid balance yet did not tell me this when I booked the appointment. I took the time off work to see her. When I called the front desk staff was rude and I asked for a manager and the refused saying i would be told the same thing. This really has hurt me worse mentally I needed that last appointment with her and they did nothing to help me. Do not go here all they care about is your money. Lydia was fantastic but the front staff needs replaced with employees who care.

Inflexible with schedules and unwilling to help squeeze patients in or let us temporarily see new providers if our normal psychiatrists are busy. Lydia my therapist is amazing though.

★☆☆☆☆
Emily C2 years ago

I went to schedule an appointment due to losing my psychiatrist and they only help if you see a therapist through them and they deem it medically necessary. They won’t help you if you have a therapist of your own. It… truly shows the colors of this company.

Tara listens to my opinions and makes me feel seen. 10/10
