Therapists in Plymouth, MN

As a therapist, my goal is to allow you to be who you are right now, using a lot of empathy (and well-meaning humor) as well as structure and direction, when necessary. My approach is one of curiosity about you and your ideal self and future. I am typically pretty direct in my approach, which people tend to really appreciate and enjoy! Working together, we will identify and collaborate on goals and how to move you towards them. I would be honored to assist you on your health and wellness journey.

Life can be a rewarding yet challenging journey. It would be my privilege to establish a warm and welcoming environment where we can work together and navigate through life's challenges.

My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, sport performance, self-confidence, self-worth and relationship difficulties. I have a passion for working with couples and families.

Now accepting Blue Cross BlueShield. I believe that each person is their own healer and is capable of living life fully.

“No matter how difficult it may be, nothing sounds as good to the soul as the truth” – Martha Beck If you are looking for a safe place to stop your circular thinking, to open up, and say it outloud, then this is your invitation to do so. A label you may identify with or are wondering about is: anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, neurodivergence, heartbreak, divorce, career confusion, or relationship struggles. These labels can increase our self-understanding or keep us stuck. FOR Couples: You are struggling with lack of connection, poor communication, infidelity, or phase of life issues.

Life is full of challenges, and together we will create a plan to help you overcome yours. I believe therapy should be a collaborative experience, and by working together I will help you accomplish your goals on the journey towards the life you want. I work with individuals and couples who are experiencing any life difficulties. During our sessions we will create a therapeutic environment that is tailored to fit your needs and lifestyle. I am LGBTQ and Kink friendly.

As a human navigating this ever-changing world, it is my belief that we each hold knowledge, power, and peace within ourselves. However, it is fair to say that we don't always feel this way. I have experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, shame, depression, life change, and trauma. My therapeutic goal is to hold space for you, support you, and help you enrich your life. I am committed to social justice and believe that systemic dynamics influence a person's mental health. I continually strive to have a validating space for all identities, and I advocate for anti-oppression on both community and systemic platforms.

I believe that the foundation of growth begins within the relationship between individual and therapist. The desire to feel seen, heard, and understood is universal and is an essential part of our overall well-being. I celebrate the courage of individuals who take steps into healing by engaging in the therapeutic process to manifest the life they desire. I am passionate about working together to ensure that you become an expert on yourself and believe in your own insight, strength, and self awareness. I believe that humor and laughter bring out our authentic selves and utilize this philosophy in my work.

I believe in incorporating a positive psychological and holistic approach to the individuals I serve. By incorporating an overall wellness and "whole mind/body" approach with individuals, I believe each person can get the best out of themselves through mental health therapy. I utilize evidenced based clinical counseling techniques such as ACT, Mindfulness, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and a variety of sport counseling/psychology modalities into practice. Lastly, I take an individual approach to every person I treat, knowing that every person is different and deserves authentic, genuine, and exceptional mental health care.

I am passionate in providing a strength-based and non-judgmental space for you to explore your needs within a confidential therapeutic relationship. I provide a compassionate, empathic, and collaborative space for people to explore mental and emotional conflict, life transitions, grief, trauma, and challenges within interpersonal relationships. I believe in people's intrinsic strength, courage, and resilience in exploring new possibilities and develop enhanced coping skills. I enjoy working with children, pre-adolescents, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I also enjoy working with families and providing parent guidance.

Life is hard, sometimes! Therapy provides you with that extra support as well as the opportunity to grow, evolve and learn new ways to cope with life's challenges. I believe the trust and rapport built between a client and therapist forms the foundation of all progress made in therapy. This relationship supports increasing awareness of the present, identifying what is no longer working, setting long term goals and taking small steps toward those goals. Building a life based in vitality, hope and an increased capacity for joy rather than one filled with suffering, avoidance and futility.

I enjoy working with adults, college and graduate students. I believe that a true and authentic relationship is at the core of a positive and helpful experience in therapy. I work from a sex-positive, anti-racist, and LGBTQIA+ affirming lens. I have experience working with clients who present with anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem, identity, life transitions, body image, and other challenges.
