UCare Therapists in Edina, MN
You may be used to being strong and holding everything together, even when you feel exhausted or unseen. Therapy can be a space to slow down, feel understood, and reconnect with what you need.
Many people come to therapy feeling emotionally worn down, stuck in relationship patterns, or caught between their own needs and the expectations of others. You may understand what is happening, yet still feel unsure how to create change. My work supports people who want clarity, steadiness, and deeper connection, without being rushed or judged. Therapy here is collaborative, trauma informed, and paced to support trust and meaningful growth.

The courage to seek a therapist is huge, and I honor that by creating a space you feel seen, heard, and understood. I believe that with the right support, everyone can overcome challenges. You’ve learned how to adapt, read the room, stay composed, code switch and keep things going. On the outside, it works. Internally, something still feels off. If you carry complex experiences and unresolved developmental trauma, it can show up as overthinking, emotional intensity or shutdown, and patterns in relationships that leave you drained or confused, especially during life transitions.

I am passionate about helping others who are suffering from distressing or abusive relationships. It can be exhausting to be in a relationship with a parent, partner or loved one that is invalidating, self-centered, or constantly hot and cold. Often these relationships create symptoms of anxiety and depression that appear in our everyday lives. You may feel like you are always walking on eggshells or can’t seem to improve your circumstances. My goal is to help you make sense of seemingly random and out of control behavior in order to create a healthy response.

Do you feel like you’re carrying the weight of trauma— always tense, as if the people around you are walking on eggshells? Are you an adopted person who struggles to connect—even with yourself? Do you know the sting of being “the only one,” wrestling with loss, shame, or the sense that life is out of your control and no one truly understands?
To feel whole again, many adoptees and trauma survivors need space to tell the truth of their experience—without judgment, dismissal, or pressure to “move on.” For many, wholeness also means reconnecting—with lost parts of self, with safe others, and with a story that finally makes sense.

I have a few immediate openings for new clients. I believe that across our life we develop many strengths, relational patterns, and skills that help us manage and navigate difficult situations and relationships. However, while these skills or patterns may have been helpful in the past, they may not be effective when we are confronted with new, unexpected challenges. I hold that therapy is a safe space where we can explore our past experiences, make sense of who we are and the ways we relate, understand our struggles, and find new solutions that lead to healing and clarity.

I am in-network with all major insurances (BCBS, Health Partners, AETNA, UMR, Cigna, UHC, Medica, TriCare, UCare, State MA, & Medicare) and can provide a super-bill for my out-of-network clients.
Everyone has a unique life story that shapes who they are. At times, we can become stuck in patterns that hold us back from becoming the person we long to be. I believe that at our core, we all need to feel valued, experience belonging, and be loved.
My role is to guide you on a path of self-discovery and healing by creating a nurturing, accepting, and safe space for individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and identities. With honest and compassionate insight, I will walk alongside you as we navigate life’s challenges together. My hope is that through our work, you will move toward a deeper sense of healing, growth, and self-love.

I believe that taking time to courageously explore your inner world can be a powerful step towards building a richer life. My approach to therapy is in-depth, emphasizing insight, creative exploration, and an attuned therapeutic relationship. It is my goal to create a space where you can feel deeply understood and safe enough to explore aspects of your life that may need caring attention, like painful experiences, confusing emotions, or neglected parts of yourself.

I specialize in working with men. If you’re a man, there’s a good chance you’ve been putting off therapy. You've probably been following some version of the “guy playbook”— trying to handle things on your own, staying busy, distracting yourself, and minimizing what you’re feeling. If this sounds familiar, I want you to know that you have a board-certified mental health therapist right here in your corner.

My ideal clients are teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and those making the transition into adulthood. I am also interested in exploring the intersection of religion, spirituality, and mental health. Whether you are deconstructing inherited beliefs, deepening your faith, or exploring a new spiritual path, my approach is affirming of all faith backgrounds. As a 2nd generation immigrant, I also understand the unique pressures of navigating more than one culture while developing personal identity and a sense of belonging. I provide a warm, culturally responsive space where your whole self is fully seen and supported.

I bring a family systems approach and a trauma-informed lens to support my clients. In session, I look to incorporate humor, patience, and a sense of curiosity to help create a conversational and cooperative space to explore your needs, examine thoughts and feelings, and navigate next steps.

I've supported clients who have experienced traumatic events, have been excessively reliant on someone emotionally or physically, feelings of anxiety or depressed, substance use concerns, and relationship or martial guidance.
