If you’re dealing depression, anxiety, relationship stress, trauma, or just the general chaos of being a human in 2026, you are not alone and you don’t have to sort it out by yourself. I help adults and teens in Chanhassen and the surrounding areas (Chaska, Minnetonka, Minneapolis, Carver County and Hennepin County) find steadier footing, healthier patterns, and a life that actually feels like their own again. My style is warm, practical, and collaborative. I bring evidence-based tools like CBT, mindfulness-based strategies, and trauma-informed approaches. Together we figure out what's getting in the way and how to move forward.
Many of the people I work with describe feeling anxious or “on edge,” worn down by stress, confused by big life transitions, or tired of repeating the same patterns in relationships. Whatever brings you in, therapy can help you feel more grounded, more confident, and more in charge of your own story.
I believe in meeting clients where they’re at and building a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can be honest and real. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out, that’s what we’re here for. If you’re looking for a therapist in Chanhassen who offers compassionate, practical support for anxiety, depression, & trauma, I'd be honored to connect.
