Women's Issues Therapists in Maple Grove, MN

For over a decade, I have helped individuals, parents and children of all ages work through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss, behavior challenges, and attachment issues. I easily connect with clients because of my caring, approachable, and authentic demeanor.

Are you making a big change in your life like changing jobs/careers, divorce, experiencing a loss or retirement? Maybe it's a change you should be happy about....but you're not. Did you know Anxiety and Depression encourage negative thoughts that stall changes, isolate people, effect career growth and challenge supportive relationships? I can help you learn how to combat the negative voices of Depression and Anxiety. Learn how to be your best "you" and enjoy life more.

I enjoy working with individuals experiencing life adjustments, anxiety, depression, and trauma, couples struggling with communication, infidelity, disconnection in the relationship, sexual concerns, divorce or separation, and other life events. I have a special interest in working with women in areas of self-esteem, assertiveness, sexual wellbeing, perfectionism, and co-dependency.

My work at Innovative Psychological Consultants has taught me that life is full of twists and turns. Sometimes no amount of training can prepare you for what comes. When you find yourself overwhelmed and confused, it can be useful to talk things through with a neutral person who can help organize your thoughts, explore your feelings, and work collaboratively to create solutions and next steps.

At Innovative Psychological Consultants I routinely see children and adolescent who are struggling in school or with family conflicts. I am able to quickly connect with young people, gain their trust, and get to the bottom of the issues they are struggling with. I also work with parents to find the best system of continuity for their children and assist with any parental coaching that may be needed so that kids are thriving with parental consistency and follow through.

My heart's desire is for everyone to connect with their innate love, joy, and peace. I believe love and joy are always present within us, they are just often hidden under layers of pain and misunderstanding. Together, we can peel back the layers and bring back your vitality. I love to listen and ask questions, which helps clients get clear on who they are, what they want, and where they are going! You are safe to share your complete (sometimes tangled) truth with me. Tears, laughter, growls, and silence are welcome.

My passion is to see my clients create positive change & bring a healthy life balance back into their lives by helping them to develop personal insight, regain trust in self and others, develop & decipher verbal and nonverbal communication. If you are Active duty or a Veteran returning to civilian life and or reintegration; If you are facing a devastating or overwhelming life event, a new and or confusing diagnosis; Or feeling sad, anxious, frustration or hopeless, it would be an honor to help you navigate through these struggles to a place of positive movement, feelings of confidence, and a healthy balance of your life again.
