I’m a therapist who’s passionate about helping men, LGBTQ+ individuals, couples (monogamous or ethically non-monogamous), and beyond to navigate the intersections of identity, sexuality, religious trauma, and mental health. As someone deeply interested in the mind-body connection, I often draw from somatic interventions and trauma-informed approaches.

Are you feeling lost or like you’re not where you should be? Are you struggling with feeling like a failure or comparing yourself to others? Are you feeling disconnected from your partner or your friends and family? Any of these feelings can bring up deep fear and pain that can be difficult, or nearly impossible to shake. You might even be worried that the spark inside you has gone out. It hasn't. It's just covered up with layers of guck and muck that may have accumulated over many years. What you need is help digging down and uncovering your spark so you can live joyfully as your most authentic self.

I see the best in others, and want to help you see this in yourself too! When we can wholeheartedly accept ourselves, and honestly and compassionately explore what's working and what's not, and what we truly value in life, then we can create meaningful change. Whether paralyzed by anxiety, sadness, past experiences, or beliefs that you aren't good enough, or are feeling unfulfilled, stuck, or overwhelmed by life stress, I can help. Together, we can work towards feeling more confident, capable, at ease, and connected.

Starting therapy for the first time can feel intimidating. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported from the very first session. Therapy with me is collaborative and active—we work together to better understand what you’re experiencing and develop practical tools that help you make meaningful changes in your daily life. I specialize in treating OCD, including Pure-O, using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Rumination and Metacognitive Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

I understand how heavy it can feel to carry stress, expectations, navigate life’s challenges, and try to make sense of your experiences while still showing up every day. Struggles like anxiety, depression, ADHD, Chronic Illness, OCD, and trauma often go deeper than what’s visible, they can be shaped by past experiences, relationships, and the stories we’ve come to believe about ourselves.

My passion for being a therapist is rooted in relationships. We cannot survive and thrive without connection to others - yet how can it get so messy and complicated!? As a couples and family therapist, I am dedicated to supporting you through those hard times. Viewing your relationship as my 'client', I aim to help identify patterns and cycles that may be keeping you stuck and disconnected. Your differences are complex, but I see them as opportunities to build a stronger, more connected team.

Change is possible — even when it feels out of reach. If trauma, anxiety, mood instability, or relationship challenges are leaving you overwhelmed or stuck, therapy can help you regain stability, clarity, and a renewed sense of control. I work with adolescents (16+) and adults, specializing in trauma and PTSD, mood and personality disorders, and co-occurring substance use concerns. I also support professionals and athletes navigating high expectations, performance pressure, identity struggles, and self-image challenges.

I believe that every person has an emotional, mental, physical and spiritual life that needs to be supported and nurtured. The path to emotional healing occurs through a collaborative approach focused on enhancing personal strengths and reconnection to oneself with an increased capacity for self-acceptance and compassion. My therapeutic approach is influenced by trauma-informed and attached-based therapies, specifically NARM (Neuroaffective Relational Model), and AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Processing) to facilitate emotional healing and connection to one's authentic self.

Defining oneself and discovering your own inner truth in the face of adversity is challenging. I can say from personal experience that psychotherapy was immensely helpful on that journey. One of my goals in life is to pay it forward by joining others on their quest.

If you’re dealing depression, anxiety, relationship stress, trauma, or just the general chaos of being a human in 2026, you are not alone and you don’t have to sort it out by yourself. I help adults and teens in Chanhassen and the surrounding areas (Chaska, Minnetonka, Minneapolis, Carver County and Hennepin County) find steadier footing, healthier patterns, and a life that actually feels like their own again. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. I bring evidence-based tools like CBT, mindfulness-based strategies, and trauma-informed approaches. Together we figure out what's getting in the way and how to move forward.
