Are you the "fixer" or the "peacekeeper" who's secretly drowning in anxiety or trauma? On the outside, you have it all together and you are the one everyone leans on. But on the inside, you're exhausted from chronic worry, disrupted sleep, or using a drink or gummy to finally "turn off" your brain. That relentless inner critic whispers you are never good enough, your "fawn" response makes saying "no" feel impossible, and guilt piles up from burdens that aren't yours. These aren't just symptoms. They're the hidden costs of over-functioning for others while neglecting yourself, often rooted in trauma or Complex PTSD.

Let’s be honest: life can throw a lot at us. Sometimes it’s the big, painful things that leave a mark… and sometimes it’s the quiet, everyday stuff that slowly builds up until we realize we’ve been carrying more than we thought. Therapy is a space to finally set some of that down for a while — to breathe, make sense of what’s been happening, and start feeling a little more like yourself again.
Together, we’ll explore how your experiences have shaped your emotions, the patterns that may be holding you back, and the parts of you that long to be seen and understood.

Three decades of sitting with people through their hardest seasons has taught me one thing: the people who seem the strongest are often the ones who've been carrying the most. Whether you're navigating trauma that keeps resurfacing, anxiety that hijacks your days, depression that dulls your sense of self, a grief you can't quite name, or relationships that feel like they're pulling you under — you haven't failed. You've been surviving without the right support. That changes here. I work with children, teens, adults, and seniors across North Dakota, and I've seen what's possible when someone finally feels truly heard.

What I have come to understand about life is that, generally speaking, we want to live authentically. We want to belong, to be seen, heard, and felt. We all want to know that we matter and that we are here for a reason.
My purpose is to help you understand yourself at a deeper level, let go of what no longer serves your best interest, and find practical solutions to help you move toward the person you were meant to become.
