Emotionally Focused Therapists in Plymouth, MN

Research shows consistently that no matter what counseling method is used, the connection between you & your therapist is the essential factor in feeling better about yourself and your life. I create a safe and supportive relationship with people. It is important that you feel heard, acknowledged & supported. This is the significant ingredient for your personal relationship transformation. In addition to deep listening, learning how to be resilient and knowing that you can support yourself through life's challenges will give you a sense of empowerment and self-esteem. I am active in the sessions, warm, supportive & practical.

Unfortunately, I am not taking new clients at this time. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples. My areas of focus include relational and intimacy difficulties, the LGBTQ community, anxiety, depression, and grief/loss.

One of the first steps to living a more happy, healthy and satisfying life is to see things from a new perspective. While self-help is valuable, it's often not enough to keep from feeling stuck in the same patterns or feelings. With over 30 years of experience, I specialize in working with men and women who feel limited, or less than fulfilled, in certain areas of their lives and are interested in taking the next step.

Being misunderstood sucks, whether you’re a (so-called) “troublesome” kid or a grown-up still trying to figure it all out. Healing the hurt so you can uncover your resiliency and power is what therapy is all about! It’s a privilege to walk the sometimes difficult, yet so very rewarding path of therapy with you, and I don’t take that for granted. I am passionate about providing an open and affirming space for all identities - I am dedicated to LGBTQ+ equality and inclusion, and I work to be actively anti-racist in my approach as well.

You are facing some challenges in your life like trauma, mood disorders, chronic health or pain issues, perhaps with co-occurring diagnoses of mental health & addiction. You might be struggling in your relationships as a spouse, partner or parent. You need a collaborative partnership with a trauma-informed therapist who will customize their approach towards your care, work with you to understand your needs, recognize your strengths and learn to address your challenges. You are looking for a therapist who is responsive to your culture, sexuality & uniqueness. You could work with the therapist as an individual, a couple or a family.
