I am a family and marriage therapist licensed in Minnesota with over 13 years of experience working as a therapist. Additionally, I am a licensed alcohol and drug counselor specializing in residential treatment. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My therapy style is warm, inviting, but yet challenging. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, narrative therapy, psychodynamic, and trauma-based therapy. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
I look forward to working with you!
