I am licensed in Minnesota and North Dakota and have eight years of professional work experience. I served 11 years in the United States Marine Corps and have both personal and professional experience working with PTSD, depression, and anxiety. I also have experience helping clients with stress, relationship issues, intimate partner violence/sexual abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
