Are you the "fixer" or the "peacekeeper" who secretly feels exhausted by anxiety or unresolved trauma? On the outside, you're the one everyone depends on. On the inside, your mind never slows down. You struggle to say no, constantly worry about disappointing others, and carry guilt that isn't yours. You may be relying on alcohol or other ways to finally turn your mind off at night. These aren't personality flaws. They’re survival patterns that often develop after trauma or complex PTSD.
As the owner of Inner World Counseling Services PLLC, I specialize in helping adults heal the trauma driving these patterns. Using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), we'll work to reduce anxiety, strengthen boundaries, quiet the inner critic, and help you feel more like yourself again.
You’ve spent your life being the one who "has it all together," but you don’t have to do this part alone. I provide secure, confidential telehealth therapy for residents across Minnesota & North Dakota, making it easier to prioritize your healing from the comfort of your own couch. I offer 15 minute free phone consults to see if we are a therapeutic fit.

I specialize in the "high-functioning" side of C-PTSD. While many see your success, I see the exhaustion of chronic fawning and people-pleasing. Using EMDR and CPT, we address the childhood roots of your anxiety and the "fixer" mentality. We move beyond managing symptoms to dismantle the guilt and self-criticism keeping you stuck, helping you finally set down burdens that aren't yours.

I use EMDR and CPT to help you move past "talking in circles." We don't just vent; we work to unhook the survival patterns—like fawning and perfectionism—that keep you exhausted. Your experience will be candid and collaborative. We skip the empty platitudes and focus on evidence-based tools that transform how you feel in your body and mind. It's a space to stop performing and start healing.
