Elders (65+) Therapists in Eagan, MN
I work with LGBTQ+ and polyamorous folks. I recognize that many of us have experienced relationship challenges, trauma, and discrimination, and that our identities play an important role in how we heal and grow. Finding a sense of who you are is never easy, but receiving invalidating messaging from the world and holding past or present wounds makes that process even more difficult. The stories we tell about ourselves, inside and outside the context of personal identities, have power over how we understand our emotions, relationships, and experiences. What might it be like to tell your story in a new way?

Waitlist for new clients
I specialize in working with clients who have experienced narcissistic abuse. As an adult child of a narcissist myself, I know all too well how difficult it is to get help and to heal. Narcissism isn't necessarily overt abuse, especially for children, and it is often hard to figure out why you feel depressed, anxious, struggle with perfectionism, or keep finding yourself in codependent relationships as adults. Narcissistic abuse is trauma and it can keep you in survival mode for a very long time. As trauma therapist, I would love to help you learn to thrive, to find joy, to be free, and really live your own life. We do heal!

Therapy is unique and diverse, as is each individual. Depending on the issue and type of therapy, help can come in the form of support, guidance, information, self-knowledge and/or a space to learn and practice new skills. The center of my practice is focused on building empowerment, balance, self-esteem, and self-awareness. I offer a warm and empathic environment for those facing difficult life transitions, relational challenges, past and present traumas, underlying issues of illness and stress, and any other issues preventing individuals from realizing the freedom and happiness of their true nature.

This is accomplished by teaming up with clients to develop healthy ways to work through difficult situations. My goal is to create serenity and harmony for individuals and within relationships through using a non-judgemental, proactive, and direct approach.

Aurora recognizes the important roles that relationships, experiences, and beliefs play in our daily lives. Our family and childhood influence our personal development; however, they are not the only determinants of who we become. We are not static beings but live in a state of constant flux, continuing to grow and having the capacity to choose change. Sometimes, changes may feel unwanted, scary or overwhelming. We may struggle in adjusting to them, or feel stuck in old patterns of responding that no longer work for us. Aurora adopts a client-centered approach and values all aspects of a person's physical, mental, and social world.

Accepting new clients: in-person & virtual. Did you wake up again today with that nagging feeling in the pit of your stomach, that reminder that something is "off"? Do you feel dread, sadness, fear, anxious, overwhelmed, or some variation of all? Whether you're coming apart at the seams and everyone is noticing, or quietly pretending, both are exhausting. Perhaps you know the cause or not, but the fact is, you're stuck. I get it because I've been there too and I know it's daunting, dark, and heavy. The good news is that it gets better and you don't have to face it alone. Let me be your gentle guide and helping hand along the way.

If there’s one reason I'm a therapist, it's because I am deeply curious about people and love to connect. I want to fully know and understand your experiences, and create a space where you feel held. I am queer and enjoy working with queer and gender expansive clients, whether on identity exploration or other life challenges. I also support clients with relationship issues: maybe you’re stuck in conflict with a partner or friend; unsure what romantic relationship structure is right for you; or finding yourself frequently anxious or struggling to connect–I will help you get back to feeling grounded in healthy connection with others.

You matter. I believe you were created with intention and you have a purpose. It takes courage and vulnerability to reach out for support and I commend you for searching. I love working with people who are choosing to pursue growth, hoping for more and seeking alignment in their lives. It doesn't matter what you've done or what's happened to you: there is hope. We will go where you want to go and at your pace. I want you to feel like therapy is your space and for you to be empowered. As a Christian, I incorporate Biblical principles in sessions upon request. I also utilize a blend of evidence-based practices and a pinch of humor.

Are you feeling stuck and/or overwhelmed? The challenge is learning how to deal with the present circumstances and, at the same time, continue to move forward in your life. We all encounter what I call, emotional pain. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or relationship issues that are causing you to worry and suffer, I can help. As we work together, we will focus on developing the kind of psychological flexibility that will help you deal with mental health and other issues that you may be experiencing that are causing you pain and suffering.

Relationships have the potential to be great sources of meaning and connection, and yet, sometimes they can be confusing and stressful. I work to support couples and individuals who are caught in cycles of high conflict in their relationships. Together we can name, process, and explore things that may keep you feeling stuck, like systemic barriers, abuse, traumatic experiences, relationship patterns, and self-limiting beliefs. I strive to provide a respectful space for curiosity and expression to help clients strengthen bonds and gain clarity around their relationship norms and expectations.

Immediate openings available! I specialize in working with adults who seek to understand, process, and heal from childhood trauma. Trauma experienced in childhood can have lasting effects on self-perception, relationships, and feelings of safety. As children, we absorb messages without the ability to discern their truth, leading to harmful beliefs about ourselves, such as feeling worthless, like something is wrong with you, or feeling guilty and deserving of mistreatment. These messages can profoundly impact our adult lives, often affecting how we relate to ourselves, our family members, our jobs, and others in our lives.

My experience working with a diverse population of families, couples and individuals of all ages has led me to adopt and practice with a relational, client-centered and strengths-based approach. This follows my observations that individuals have internalized resources, wisdom and capacity for resilience that are often unrecognized or repressed. Strengthening those parts of the self provide the most enduring and transformative healing experiences. I also believe a critical component of my work with clients is helping them understand the brain/body connection, and how to utilize this understanding to manage symptoms and responses.

Has something happened recently turning your life upside down? Are you unsure what to think or feel? My desire, as a counselor, is to help clients sort through thoughts and emotions and find hope. I believe each person is significant, and at times this truth is lost. With jumbled thoughts, we can lose sight of our worth and this can lead to despair.
