Therapists in Fargo, ND

Life's journey can often throw us curve balls. Everyone is worthy of love and belonging, however sometimes it is hard to be able to put yourself first and nurture your emotional needs. With the correct level of support, I firmly believe that anyone can achieve better emotional stability, find moments of joy, and learn to live in the present. No one is able to "fix" another's mental health concerns, yet through support, encouragement, education, empathy, and understanding, you can have the knowledge and tools to reach your own personal goals. I have worked in the mental field for 10 years.

Supporting clients in making progress toward their goals is one of my favorite aspects of my job. I enjoy working with people from a variety of backgrounds and hearing their unique stories. I've worked with individuals, couples, and families with high-risk issues, such as abuse, neglect, and suicide and those in the LGBTQ+ community. I have experience working with clients who have anxiety, depression, and those struggling through life transitions.

You can see your relationship with your significant other declining and you've tried everything. At your worst, you have fights that last for days on end without any sort of resolution. At your best, you seem to just be roommates and lacking any emotional and/or physical intimacy that you once connected on. You know that this relationship should be your priority, but how are you supposed to do that while you're juggling a full-time job, being the leader of your household, and raising up your children? You simply can't think too much about how overwhelmed you are or you find yourself crying and feeling hopeless.

My overall focus is on helping women be well--physically, emotionally, spiritually, socially. My areas of focus include: trauma, depression, anxiety, work-life balance, grief, self-esteem, and relationship issues. I gravitate towards Cognitive Behavioral and Humanistic therapies in my clinical work. I primarily serve clients individually; however, I am experienced in offering couple's and group therapy. I am passionate about working with those experiencing PTSD and helping improve their quality of life. In addition to seeing clients I provide supervision for ND and MN counselors seeking their LPCCs.

You're not sure exactly when it happened, but all of a sudden you don't have the confidence you used to have, you're exhausted, and the fire in your eye is gone. You used to have hobbies and things you loved to do, and you used to know who you were and what you stood for. But today, you're lost, you're busy without production, you're overwhelmed, and don't know who you are. You've had so many dreams, but your worries and fears are holding you captive from success. You want so bad to find yourself, your happiness, and your drive, but don't know where to start.

I believe all of us need others to walk alongside us as we experience the joys and challenges of life. I see individuals as unique and from a strengths perspective – that we use our strengths to assist us throughout hardships we experience. I see the therapeutic experience as a partnership where the individual seeking services is the expert in themselves. I work alongside them to support, provide feedback, appropriately motivate, and assist them in making their own decisions that are best for them as an individual.
