My passion lies in understanding how trauma shapes our lives and using evidence-based techniques to help individuals heal and thrive. With a foundation in Humanistic/Existential and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I offer a specialized focus on how trauma impacts our mental and emotional well-being. Through CBT, I work collaboratively with clients to identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that stem from past experiences. I am licensed in Minnesota and Georgia and can practice in 42 U.S. states through the PSYPACT mobility authorization.

Have you had a recent change in your life and want a safe person to talk with to better understand yourself? Perhaps your feelings have felt more intense: anxiety, depression, confusion, or desire to find purpose to your life. You look around - seeking answers, understanding, & deeper healing. Maybe a life situation unfolded and you were suddenly on a path you never imagined (job loss, divorce, etc) or one you wanted to be on but it’s more stressful or different than what you thought (attending college or a new job). If this is you, I can support you. I approach all my clients with the understanding that we are capable of change.

I value all of the work I do, and all types of people are welcome in my space. I have an emphasis in practice working with people from marginalized/oppressed communities (e.g. BIPOC, LGBTQIA, people with disabilities to name a few), sex positivity, poly/open relationship orientations, grief/loss/transition, college student mental health, neurodiversity, white accountability, and earth-based spiritual traditions. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are new to and/or unsure if counseling is the best option for their well-being.

Using a warm, casual, active style, I help clients find their own way toward growth and health. In a world that typically looks at the surface, I will work with you to look at the deeper parts of yourself and your life so that you can make lasting change that moves you toward your goals. Although our past experiences have helped us shape who we are, they do not need to hold us captive; I help you focus on what is working now and how we can make it better. I primarily use a somatic lens, helping you tune into your body's wisdom and healing. I also offer prep and integration sessions for expanded states of consciousness.

I offer nonjudgmental support to others with a variety of concerns and integrate humor, empathy, and openness into each of my sessions. Clients can also expect knowledge of neurobiological functioning, family systems awareness, and a trauma informed lens to be woven into my practice.

Welcome! I'm glad you found my profile. Even if you decide I'm not the right therapist for you, I want to commend you for taking the first step toward improving your mental health. Often, finding the right provider is the hardest part of therapy. I might be the therapist for you if any of the following apply: you've experienced traumatic events and feel stuck, you're grappling with professional burnout or compassion fatigue, you're breaking a family cycle of abuse, or if you've tried traditional talk therapy and need something different.

**Currently not accepting new clients** I believe that therapy is a joint venture between the client and therapist. It is a way to learn about how each construct the meaning that forms our lives and our feelings and to take responsibility for constructing them to be what we wish. My role as therapist is to correct, understand, empathize, suggest and confront. Therapy can be in turn difficult, fun, painful, confusing, boring, upsetting and once in a while transcending. Because the construction of meaning in our lives is active, I am not a passive listener but an active participant in the process of relationship and change.

Welcome to Through the Woods Counseling! I am a feminist therapist licensed in the state of Minnesota to treat co-occurring disorders - that’s just a way of saying I’m trained in working with folks that struggle with more than one issue at a time. Think things like anxiety and alcohol abuse, trauma and depression, stress management and ADHD, and so on… I believe mental health diagnoses can be helpful in giving us a starting point for evidence based ways to improve our mental wellness, but they are also labels rooted in and created by classically oppressive systems, so diagnosis is not a primary focus of sessions.

In my work with clients, I seek to meet them where they are. From there, we can begin our work together. The experiences and relationships in your life have a great impact on who you are today. And you are the best expert in your life. I want to honor those things while also helping you to grow and move towards who you want to be. I view the therapy as a collaborative space where we can work together to find growth, healing, and change.

Hi! A few things to know about me - I believe each person is doing the best they can with what they have, and have a passion for working with those who wish to learn how to best use their strengths effectively to reach their goals. I enjoy working with adults seeking to learn more about themselves, including the patterns that may have stopped working for them. Few things feel more honorable than sitting with those who are open to challenge themselves, while honoring their needs, wants and goals. I love working with those with the desire to continue growing through every chapter of life.

Current Openings. I provide a place of welcome, free from judgment, so clients are safe to explore deep feelings and desires for change and healing. I help clients clarify their values and remember/discover what they hold most dear in life so they can experience whole-hearted living. I support clients as they build their sense of self and learn to use their voice to speak their truth. My clients may be working through the repair of a significant relationship or grieving the loss of one. They may be feeling the weight of depression, anxiety, or be seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. I am here to support this work.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often times self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others and felt empty inside. Instead of accepting my reality and the changing interaction between the environment, others and myself - I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change. Whether you are in a time of transition or a time of pain, I believe that we all have the tools we need to walk toward a loving and meaningful life.

Despite the fact that therapy often requires facing some painful realities, for many of the people I work with therapy is a lot of fun. I bring my compassion, training, experience, and dedication to therapy, and in exchange I ask that you take chances: trying something different even if it makes you feel uncomfortable, being vulnerable even if it hasn't always worked for you in the past, and being honest even when it might be a difficult truth to face.
