It’s your life – make the proper connection. You are looking for a change. Trying to manage a family, career, and friendships while finding time for yourself as the daily cycle continues leaves you exhausted. So many tasks left undone. Life feels overwhelming. Thoughts of tomorrow keep you awake at night. You have no more empathy toward others, making you feel irritable and snippy. Your gas tank is empty, and your relationships are struggling. You want to succeed, yet keep desperately searching for balance and a way to rejuvenate. But – you feel lost on where to begin. If you want to live with more joy and confidence, heal from your past, or gain a deeper connection with everyone in your life – yourself included – you are in the right place. We will work together to finally release the harmful beliefs that have held you back for too long. Learn to treat yourself with the compassion and love you deserve! Find the right path forward. We will work together to establish the path right for you. We will use a combination of therapeutic modalities to help you reshape your sense of self, reprocess past traumas, and find healing. As we identify your goals, we can develop a treatment plan with the best approaches for you. Sharing your most intimate parts from your past can be scary. Regarding therapy, there are many paths to start your healing journey. The relationship you build with your provider is essential in allowing you the comfort and safety to begin on your path. I am a compassionate, supportive, person-centered therapist that believes that every client has individualized needs and healing comes from within. I do not have super powers. I am just a human helping other humans! Work with me will be challenging, however you will find it rooted in a relaxed, safe, and nonjudgmental space, allowing you to present your authentic self. As your provider, I will also show up with my authentic self; this might mean a t-shirt, cowgirl boots, and a ballcap – some days, dressed in a sweatshirt and jeans. There is nothing extra fancy here and no expectations for how you present to the session! Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy attending children's sporting events, cooking, gardening, and spending time on my farm with my children and husband. I am currently available to provide services to all genders ages 18 and up. I look forward to working with you!

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor I believe in providing all of my clients with the best therapy possible by using an approach that fits who they are as a person. I want my clients to have a safe, open space to be themselves, ask for what they need, and feel comfortable every time they come in. Therapy is a place of vulnerability that only works if the client can fully engage in the process and feel confident in their therapist. I strive to help clients reach a space where real healing is achieved and to have them leave sessions feeling understood and closer to their goals. While I do provide more traditional talk therapy to those that prefer that therapeutic method, I also believe in trying other approaches to healing. My goal is to provide other paths to recovery and healing by combining different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual. I see my clients holistically and care for their overall health and wellness. Having an integrative approach helps me to meet my clients where they are at in a non-judgmental space and find an approach that works for them. In my career I have worked with adults, children, families, and couples all with diverse backgrounds and mental health concerns. I have specialized in autism, anxiety, depression, crisis, parenting skills and relationship repair. My passion is in therapy and helping others to find the quality of life they are looking for.

I am a licensed marriage and family counselor in Minnesota with 22 years of experience working with individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including persons experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use issues, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. My counseling style is warm and solution based. I believe in meeting people where they are at in their journey, as it takes a great deal of courage to share personal life struggles. In my perspective, the development of a trusting therapeutic relationship is a crucial component in creating a safe working environment. This therapeutic relationship will also assist the person in identify areas of their life they would like to improve and specific personal goals to incorporate in the development of a treatment plan. Together we will work to mutually define next steps towards these identified goals and ultimately work toward their desired outcome. I do recognize that it takes a great deal of strength and vulnerability to reach out for help, and I sincerely commend you for taking this first big step! I am looking forward to the chance to work together and to help you live your best life!

I believe that every person holds the power and resources necessary to find happiness. As a trans woman I understand both the external and the internal forces that create self-doubt and spike fear—the loneliness, the separateness, and the tailspin of uncertainty. I know, too, from professional and personal experience that self-acceptance and happiness are within everyone--and science clearly indicates that those who seek help benefit from it. I utilize a mindfulness-based approach, working primarily with members of the LGBTQAI+ community, but I welcome all those who seek an empathic, supportive, and nonjudgmental collaborator to a better, more fulfilling and satisfying life????️????
