About My Clients

Life's most challenging moments can ask you to step out of your comfort zone which can feel uncomfortable, unsettling, or even scary. As a result, you can experience anxiety, depression, and anger to such levels that you start to struggle in other aspects of your life. Learning to navigate these challenges, with compassion and acceptance, can help you evolve and thrive wherever life leads you. Uncover your resilience and build your authentic life, while establishing stability and support.

My Background and Approach

I have experience working with adolescents and adults, providing a variety of counseling services in group and individual settings. I place a strong emphasis on the therapeutic-alliance to create a supportive and caring environment for growth and change. My non-judgmental, strength-based approach will help us work together to achieve the life you want. I enjoy working with people from all different backgrounds and paths. I find working with young-adults and members of the LGBTQ+ community especially rewarding. I welcome the opportunity to support you as you unwrap your pain, rewrite old stories, and heal wounds to become the best version of yourself. Counseling can offer you a safe space to explore your story and find your own way forward. Trained in DBT and Person Centered Therapy. I also use CBT, Existential, and Strengths-Based approaches with adults and adolescents 15-65+. Telehealth Only Licensed in Minnesota, Washington, South Dakota, Iowa.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that black lives matter. I believe in equal rights to marriage and health care access. I believe in trans rights and protections. I believe health care options and treatments are a matter for an individual and their trusted providers to determine. I believe that relationships with yourself, others, and organizations come in all different varieties. I believe that most people are trying to do the best they can, with what they have. I believe that collaborative tools and genuine support can help.
