Therapists in Yankton, SD

It is my belief that the client most often needs to be heard and supported in a non judgemental and gracious environment. The majority of the population has problems in some shape or form, but what the majority does not have is a safe space to resolve them. Whether it is something traumatic or something thats been bothering you in a relationship, there is no problem too big or small for the connection between myself and the client. The goal is to use this safe and benevolent space to take back control over the difficulties that life throws at you.

It is a gift to listen and lean in to each of my client’s unique stories as we navigate the difficulties and joys of life. Working with individuals, couples, and families, I seek to offer an accepting, warm, and encouraging space where people learn about, and understand themselves, in light of the world around them. Though I primarily work with teens and families, I do enjoy working with adults and couples as well. I especially enjoy counseling those who have difficulties with depression, anxiety, neurodivergence, Christian/spiritual difficulties, and behavioral issues.

Life keeps on, even if it feels like you can’t. Depression, anxiety, traumas, etc. can all impact how we see ourselves and the world around us. It can be difficult to navigate life after such occurrences. My goal is to help you build the tools you need to be able to unleash your potential. I want to create a safe place for you without judgement. Together, we can collaborate to meet your mental health goals and needs.
