South Country Health Alliance Therapists in Minnesota

How are you showing up in your life? Perhaps you are exhausted by efforts to avoid emotional pain, with the result being you avoid being present in your life. Or perhaps you stay mired in forms of emotional pain due to its familiarity or its seeming inescapability. I find great meaning in helping clients move toward their vision of a more fulfilling life. I enjoy working with adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, challenges with substance use, and/or difficulties with adjusting to new life circumstances – who want to better connect with themselves, their friends and loved ones, and the natural world.

I work with people from the ages of 12 to 100! I specialize in trauma and use a solution focused approach. I am trained in EMDR and love seeing the small successes clients achieve. I also offer clinical supervision.

When it comes to my work as a mental health and addiction therapist my love and passion for aiding veterans, police officers, and emergency service workers is second to none.

I also have many years of experiences helping veterans and the general population with various type of substance use disorders.

It's helpful to have someone with whom to share our challenges. I view therapy as a sacred, yet creative partnership, focusing on personal healing and self-awareness. Therapy is also a holistic pursuit, nurturing mind, body, and spirit. As a person of faith, I am passionate about incorporating spirituality into the therapeutic process, at the discretion of the client. I conceptualize therapy from two directions: First, the work centers around building skills to regulate oneself during anxious or depressive experiencing. These skills are essential for doing the deeper work of identifying and resolving traumatic experiences.
