Thanks for visiting my profile. Are you struggling to feel connected to yourself and those around you? Feeling depressed, anxious, or lost? I would love to hold space with you while you explore the inner workings of all things related to you. I believe that as human beings, everything we do is relational, therefore, I believe therapy offers the opportunity to heal with another person being present. I have been working as a clinical social worker for the past 12 years. I currently offer telehealth services in Minnesota and Wisconsin to individuals 18 and older.

At times, dealing with emotional and relational challenges and other life stressors can feel frustrating and overwhelming. I will listen to you carefully and work with you to identify those issues clearly, then develop healthier approaches and coping skills to improve your sense of integration and wholeness. I will collaborate with you to create a life with a greater sense of authenticity and fulfillment. Trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, alcohol and chemical use, co-dependency, relationships, anger, and life transitions are all challenges with which I am able to help you.

I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (21952) and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (303042). I work from a trauma aware, person centered, sex positive and harm reduction based perspective. I am queer identified and use she, her and hers pronouns. If you've found my profile, welcome and I look forward to learning more about you. Most of my experience is in working with people with a history of traumatic experiences, people who want to discuss/potentially make changes to their substance use, LGBTQIA + people and people living with or impacted by HIV.

As a therapist, I believe that authenticity and the therapeutic relationship are invaluable. I believe that therapy will not work if there is not a strong therapeutic alliance. I tend to be a laid back, compassionate clinician who values humor in session, but I am also not afraid to challenge you and be direct. I believe each individual is unique, therefore I do not believe there is one set way to do therapy. I value meeting individuals where they are at and learning about their strengths to help them in session. I work with adults ages 18+.

I work with adults 18+ and specialize in life transitions, anxiety, trauma and addiction, and have a particular interest in how our childhood experiences impact us as adults. I currently see clients via telehealth through Catalyst Mental Health. More information about myself and Catalyst can be found by clicking on the "website" link on the left-hand side of this page. The extension for my confidential voicemail at Catalyst Mental Health is extension 715.

Whether you're considering beginning therapy for the first time, continuing or returning to treatment, good for you! You're already taking positive steps to improve your mental health and well-being. I meet clients wherever they are in life and utilize a strengths-based, collaborative approach to help them get to where they would like to be. I support clients in identifying areas in which they may benefit from making changes and help them develop effective skills to do so. My therapeutic style incorporates warmth, humor, and positive regard for the strengths of each individual.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor that has experience counseling adults in a variety of settings. I take a person-centered relational approach enhancing client strengths and empowering them through collaboration. I enjoy working with clients that have trauma and/or co-occurring disorders. I understand that some people may be aware that they need help processing their trauma and/or understanding why they are using substances. There are other people that are not as far along in the stages of changes. I believe therapy is a joint effort in processing through life's challenges.

Seeking therapy takes immense courage, and the therapy session should be a place to explore, question, struggle, and heal without judgment. In my practice, I utilize a systemic, feminist approach that honors the innate dignity, worth, and capacity for change in all human beings. I believe that healing and change happen in our relationships to others and to a global sense of humanity. I strive to create a safe container in which to practice interpersonal healing, utilizing the therapeutic relationship and process as the primary tool for creating change.

Do you spend too much time comparing yourself to others? Are you frustrated in trying to communicate with those you love? Does your career feel like a dead end? There is HOPE and a way forward. I see people change their lives on a daily basis. I will be with you on this journey, understanding you, helping you to identify patterns that are getting in your way and encouraging you on your path towards an internal revolution and becoming the best version of you.

Being a kid during these modern times is difficult, and asking for help is courageous when life begins to feel a little too much. I have a particular passion providing mental health care for children, adolescents, and young adults, and have a special interest working with neurodivergence and anxiety disorders. In my work with you, I will provide a safe space for you and your child to explore current therapeutic concerns and work to address them using evidence-based modalities and interventions - all while being your biggest cheerleader, every step of the way!

Are you looking for a way to feel better and to start taking steps toward the life you want to live? Perhaps you've been putting everyone else's needs above your own, or maybe you've been holding up everyone else while you're struggling to just hold onto yourself. If you've lost yourself along the way, I know how hard that can be, and you no longer need to suffer in silence. Whether you’re feeling stuck in depression, anxiety, overwhelm, emptiness, or loneliness, together we can start moving you toward relief from the pain you're experiencing and toward a life you feel excited to live.

I am a trauma-informed, relational therapist. I enjoy helping my clients improve their relationships with themselves and others. I approach therapy from a gentle, yet direct, place to help clients find hope in the midst of suffering.

I am committed to being anti-racist, body positive, sex positive, and affirming of the LGBTQIA+ population.

Because I believe we grow and learn throughout our life, I delight in working with all people. I see therapy as a supportive environment created for the purpose of encouraging one another in times of need, as well as joy. I have specialized experience working with children and families, empowering each during tough transitions such as toddlerhood and adolescence, while collaborating during unexpected and challenging issues like ADHD, anxiety, depression, abuse, trauma and more. I utilize play, narrative, feminist, and mindfulness therapies to encourage hope and develop authentic connections with each person I see.

I am honored to offer space to process and reflect and help clients connect to themselves and others in a deeper way. I believe we each have our own inner widsom and therapy is a place to discover that wisdom. Clients describe me as down to earth, creative, compassionate, funny, direct, warm and intuitive. I specialize in grief and loss, education, healthcare and mental health professionals, secondary and primary trauma and clients who have connection with adoption or foster care. I work from strength based and trauma informed models and draw from IFS, Attachment, Narrative and Somatic/Experiential/Sandtray modalities.

Life can be challenging. Sometimes these challenges come from outside of us (hurts others have caused us through their actions) and other times our challenges come from within (frustrating behavior patterns we just can't seem to shake, patterns of thinking about ourselves and the world around us that cause us needless suffering). When these challenges become too great and leave us feeling afraid, angry, confused or overwhelmed, therapy can be helpful. In my work with clients I strive to instill hope, foster resiliency, and nurture a sense of empowerment and personal agency.

Life is too precious not to live it to the fullest, and I am here to support you every step of the way. I invite you to discover moments of peace and cultivate hope for the future. Life is too short not to embrace the joy and contentment that can be found within it.

Waitlist. I believe that we are all story tellers of our own lives. The story evolves based on our past experiences, which in turn, may be how we view the world and our place in it. A few key ingredients people need to thrive are safety, significance and a sense of belonging. We need to be seen and heard. I offer a space that is safe for that to happen.
