Therapists in Fridley, MN

Living in hell? I am here to help. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, or BPD, I may be a great fit for you. I provide skills to alleviate symptoms like suicidality, self-harm, emotion dysregulation, relationship problems, sleep disturbances, and feeling out of control. If you are diagnosed with a medical condition, have cognitive impairment, or are a caregiver, I also may be a great fit. I find value in supporting clients and their families through life-changing medical events or diagnoses, end-of-life care, and disability. Let's work together to help you move through and out of hell.

It's no mystery that people experience depression, anxiety, worry, struggles with relationships, substance use, and feel burdened by life. It requires tremendous effort and intention to navigate our existence. However, your life can be changed in a profound way to help you achieve your goals. Perhaps you struggle with anxiety, depression, don't know what direction your life is headed, or have found yourself stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns. Maybe you are looking to take self care to the next level and deepen your understanding of yourself? I'd like to hear from you.

My policy is, come as you are, in whatever state that may be. Are you going through what feels like a never-ending cycle of intrusive thoughts? Do you often find yourself stuck in an anxious loop, that eventually leaves you stuck and unable to make decisions? Whatever the concerns are, I can help stabilize your mind and find solutions to maintain a general sense of well-being and mental clarity. Usually this starts with addressing our emotions, bringing ourselves to a calm place in order to acknowledge the problems. Big problems are usually small at first, no matter how trivial they are, and it’s completely okay to talk about them!

My passion is helping individuals, couples and families live the lives they deserve. I am a straightforward, innovative therapist with an outstanding track record for helping my clients live healthy productive lives. My personal commitment to you as your therapist is to provide counseling and psychoeducation using Cognitive Behavior Therapy to promote healthy thinking and positive outcomes. I am a firm believer that in order to change behavior we have to gain insight into underlying beliefs that have developed over time through experiences.

Are you tired of therapists who say that they do relationship therapy only to have you practice basic communication skills? Are you tired of the lack of progress and want to get unstuck once and for all? I specialize in making sure that time does continue to pass by while you are feeling weighed down in the status quo. I'm straightforward and honest. My clients describe me as annoyingly neutral when they try to get me to take sides against their partners. They also describe me as willing to ask the hard questions and willing to keep people accountable. I love helping people navigate every stage of coupling or uncoupling.

Your healing and growth are important to me. I will do all I can to empower you to find your strengths and skills to have a meaningful and fulfilling life. I will be gentle and kind and will teach and guide you toward achieving your goals. Many of my patients come to me with depression, anxiety and relationship issues. This is true for many different ages of individuals. My many years as a parent and therapist have given me a broad and rich perspective.

Starting therapy can often feel like writers block. You are ready to compose and illustrate your story, but may feel bewildered on how to begin. The scene is set, the characters are in place, but the plot lines may be out of focus or seem beyond your grasp. This is where I can be of help. It is my privilege to hear your narratives, your characters and your scenes in order to validate, honor and share in your growth. It would be an honor to assist in making meaning of your story for whatever chapter of life you are in.

Do you find yourself struggling with anxiety, grief, relationships, or a loss of a sense of self that affects your day-to-day life?

Together we work through and move past challenges/losses, make sense of emotions, and learn coping skills to help manage, improve, and overcome difficult relationships.
