I work with people who are seeking help and treatment with life situations that are causing them distress either mentally, emotionally, physically and/or relationally.

I work with clients ages 12 and up. I have special passions for treating folks struggling with negative self talk, symptoms of post traumatic stress, self harm, and suicidal ideation: if you feel like life isn't worth living, I want to explore that with you. Instead of shutting it down, let's built a life you DO experience as worth living. As a transgender and autistic therapist I love to work with clients looking to explore and process gender, sexual orientation, and/or neurodivergence.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, BSW, MSW, LCSW, LICSW
Como, Saint Paul, MN 55108
I am an inclusive therapist specializing in both CBT and SFBT, which allows us to quickly get to the heart of your concerns. I am accepting new clients at this time and offer both office appointments or telehealth sessions. I am very easy to talk to and work outside of regular business hours. Most of the clients I see are women or young adults dealing with trauma, low self-esteem, eating or identify issues, and anxiety. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that the human spirit is capable of hope, love, and resilience. Impermanence is a fact of life, and what matters is how we are able to cope with it.

I see clients in-person at our office in St.
I am eager to support adults who want to explore challenges related to anxiety, depression, shame, self-esteem, and relationship patterns, influenced by family history and cultural expectations. I work with individuals impacted by intergenerational trauma and those navigating identity in the midst of cultural expectations. My approach is relational and collaborative. I believe change is often non-linear and can feel overwhelming. However, meaningful change occurs when clients feel motivated, supported, and encouraged to trust themselves while remaining committed to the therapeutic process.

FAQ - About In Person Therapy
What are the benefits of in-person therapy?
In-person therapy offers several benefits that some people find highly valuable for their mental health treatment. Being present in the same room as your therapist can create a stronger sense of connection and allow for more nuanced communication through body language. Some people may also find it easier to focus in therapy when they are in a dedicated space and away from potential distractions related to home or work; attending an in-person session provides a clear boundary between therapy time and the rest of your life. For certain therapeutic approaches, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), exposure therapy, or somatic therapy, being in person may be particularly important, as these therapies benefit from the therapist being able to observe and respond to a client’s physical cues effectively. Additionally, some individuals simply feel more comfortable discussing sensitive or painful topics when they are face-to-face with their therapist rather than on a screen.
When should I choose in-person therapy over online therapy?
In-person therapy may be a better choice when you need a structured therapeutic environment separate from your daily life, when you find it difficult to focus or feel comfortable in an online setting, or when privacy at home is a concern. It may also be more appropriate if you are dealing with severe mental health symptoms that require close monitoring or if your therapy involves approaches that rely heavily on observing physical cues. On the other hand, if convenience, scheduling flexibility, or access to specialists outside your immediate area are priorities, online therapy may be a better fit. Many therapists offer both options, so you can also discuss with a provider which format might work best for your specific situation.
How do I find an in-person therapist?
You can use Psychology Today's therapist directory to find an in-person therapist in your area. You can search by location, insurance accepted, specialty areas, therapeutic approaches, and other criteria to narrow down providers who meet your needs. Each therapist profile includes information about their credentials, areas of expertise, and whether they offer in-person sessions. Once you have identified potential therapists, you can contact them directly through the directory to schedule an initial consultation and determine whether they are a good fit before committing to ongoing treatment. When reaching out, it can be helpful to confirm their availability for in-person appointments, their office location, and whether they accept your insurance.
