I am passionate about working with couples struggling to lower their defenses in order to emotionally connect daily. I enjoy working with partners readying themselves to make a commitment (pre-marital), those going through extreme life transitions that are changing the structure of their family, partnerships that need support in co-parenting, and those struggling with infidelity. I also love working with individuals (16+) struggling to build self-esteem, make genuine connections to others, and live life with purpose. I have a heart for those struggling with depression, anxiety, men's issues, and past trauma experiences.
I am in-network with Aetna, BCBS, Anthem, Ucare, Medicaid/Medical Assistance, HealthPartners PMAP, Medical PMAP. Hennepin Health, and PreferredOne. We are not able to submit claims for HealthPartners Commercial or Medica/Optum/UMR/UHC Commercial policies. I also have private pay options if you do not wish to use insurance or want to bill for out of network.
I'm part of the team at Sage Leaf Wellness's St Paul office and we want to make it easy to start therapy. We have a self scheduling portal you can access through our website to schedule a consult call or an intake appointment.
