Therapists in Fargo, ND

I enjoy working with women experiencing mood and anxiety disorders, including trauma-related disorders, and women experiencing emotional health concerns in the context of chronic health conditions. I am also a strong advocate for those experiencing neurodiversity (ADHD and/or Autism Spectrum Disorder). I specialize in helping individuals identify the specific nature of their concerns, including differential diagnostic assessment and inclusion of psychological testing, if appropriate. Clearly identifying these concerns leads to improved outcomes, helping individuals grow in a way that is meaningful to them.

Around 40% of the effectiveness of therapy is your relationship with your therapist! The next 30% is your own coping skill set. I pride myself in being a down to earth, relatable counselor, and I enjoy collaborating with my clients for their mental health care! With 18 years of well-rounded experience in the field, I use a combination of theories and techniques to first build a trusting and empowering relationship and then work together to reduce the suffering that comes from mental health issues or life's stressors. I believe clients are looking for connection and for a counselor they can relate to, to help with their problems!

I work with people who struggle with mood disorders, life transitions, career counseling, marriage/couples counseling, personality disorders, eating disorders, stress management, and coping skills.

I provide therapy for children and adults aged 5-65. I use a combination of mindfulness, CBT, DBT, ACT, and person-centered therapy in my work, but ultimately I believe in letting my clients be the driver of their therapy. I want to help people learn the skills to make their lives a little easier and to help them get rid of the weight they are carrying on their shoulders.
