As a licensed therapist in South Dakota and Arizona, I bring years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My professional background focuses on helping clients navigate depression, grief, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I specialize in working with young adults, military veterans, and individuals experiencing communication difficulties, isolation, and emotional transitions.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate and client-centered, addressing diverse concerns including body image, financial stress, family dynamics, and interpersonal relationships. I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and develop meaningful strategies for healing and personal development.
Drawing from extensive clinical expertise, I offer a balanced, empathetic approach that respects individual values and personal growth. Whether you're confronting life transitions, managing emotional challenges, or seeking deeper self-understanding, I'm here to support you with professional guidance and genuine care.
My hours primarily consist of Saturdays as I am a school counselor and run a private practice in Rapid City, SD during the week. If Saturdays work for you I would love to build a beneficial client-counselor relationship.
