I enjoy working with relational problems centered on attachment and codependency, complex and childhood trauma, late-diagnosed ADHD or those suspecting ADHD, and overall improving the relationship to emotions to better navigate life's ups and downs.
Finding yourself stuck in patterns and cycles that you struggle to get out of, let alone have hope for to change? These patterns might be a well-rehearsed dance with another person or even a full cast of characters, or your internal world rippling outward into your life. By increasing awareness and understanding of what's within you and of the dynamics within your relationships, you can learn to disengage from the ineffective and instead move intentionally toward a more functional, fulfilling way of being.

Many of the people I work with are professionals who have lives that look successful from the outside. They have careers, families, responsibilities, and people who depend on them. Yet beneath the surface, they feel exhausted, disconnected, or trapped in patterns they can't seem to change. Some are struggling with alcohol or other substances. Others are dealing with anxiety, burnout, depression, relationship challenges, or simply the feeling that life has become something to survive rather than enjoy. They've often tried therapy before and gained insight or coping skills, but they're looking for something deeper and more lasting.

I work with adult individuals (25+) and partners in relationships who are emotionally attuned but often exhausted—due to chronic overfunctioning, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from their own feelings and needs. Many carry relational wounds, identity pain, and/or the fearful beliefs that they are “too much” or “not enough”. My deepest calling is to support people in reclaiming the parts of themselves that have never felt fully seen, understood, or celebrated. I believe healing begins in spaces where we can slow down, feel safe enough to be witnessed in our rawness, and build more honest connections—with others and within.

You want to feel motivated, calm, and genuinely connected again in your Minnesota life, but you don't know where to start. You're looking for a clear path to feeling better.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
