As a licensed therapist in Minnesota with nearly three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on addressing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions with compassion and expertise. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental approach to help clients navigate difficult experiences such as trauma, social anxiety, workplace stress, and interpersonal dynamics. My therapeutic work centers on empowering individuals to develop healthier communication patterns, rebuild self-esteem, and discover meaningful personal growth strategies. My expertise spans a wide range of concerns including mood disorders, caregiver stress, young adult challenges, and women's issues. I am committed to creating a safe, affirming space where clients can explore their experiences, heal from past wounds, and develop resilient coping mechanisms. I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet individual needs with genuine empathy and professional insight. Together, we can work towards understanding your strengths, addressing challenges, and creating positive, sustainable change in your life.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

If you're feeling stuck, finding yourself repeating the same patterns, or you've been in therapy before but aren't quite sure how to apply what you've learned in everyday life, you're not alone. I offer direct, compassionate therapy that helps turn insight into meaningful, real-world change. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, perfectionism, people-pleasing, low self-esteem, or the lasting impact of difficult experiences, therapy can help you move forward with greater clarity and confidence. I work best with people who are motivated for change and ready to move beyond awareness alone. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, challenge patterns that no longer serve you, and develop practical tools you can use outside of sessions to create lasting change. I especially enjoy working with high achievers, perfectionists, and individuals who are ready to translate insight into action. I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota, Virginia, and New York with over 10 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Dartmouth College and my Master of Arts in Counseling from Bethel University. My training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), and Experiential Play Therapy. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and collaborative. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space while remaining honest, direct, and solution-focused. I use a holistic, integrative approach that blends evidence-based therapies with mindfulness and mind-body techniques to support the whole person. One of my primary modalities is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, emotional responses, and behaviors. The goal is not simply to feel better during therapy sessions, but to build the skills and confidence needed to continue supporting yourself long after therapy has ended. My style tends to be more direct and solution-oriented than that of some therapists. I ask thought-provoking questions, provide honest feedback, challenge unhelpful patterns, and encourage you to actively engage in the therapeutic process. Therapy works best when we work together, and I believe meaningful change happens when insight is paired with action. Clients often seek my support for: • Anxiety and stress management • Depression and mood concerns • Childhood trauma and adverse experiences • Life transitions and adjustment difficulties • Low self-esteem and self-worth concerns • Codependency and people-pleasing patterns • Attachment and relationship challenges • Anger management • Grief and loss • Sleep difficulties Treatment is always tailored to your unique goals, values, and circumstances—there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Please note that I do not treat ADHD, eating disorders, or personality disorders. If you're motivated for change, willing to do the work, and looking for a therapist who will both support and challenge you, we may be a good fit!

I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree from the University of Minnesota. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), a credential granted by the Minnesota Board of Social Work. With over 30 years of dedicated experience, I have specialized in working with individuals addressing a variety of challenges, including depression, the impact of divorce, adjustments to new environments, anxiety, and relationship issues. I also support families navigating the complexities of divorce. I understand that considering therapy can be a significant and often daunting step for many. To ease this transition, I offer a personable, empathetic approach that fosters a welcoming, supportive environment. My therapeutic practice is grounded in Reality Therapy, and I am certified in Choice Theory, a pioneering psychological model developed by Dr. William Glasser. Reality Therapy diverges from traditional mental health frameworks by focusing on individuals facing universal human challenges, rather than labeling these experiences as mental illnesses. This empowering approach emphasizes personal responsibility and provides individuals with the autonomy to choose how they wish to move forward, fostering a sense of control and self-determination in their journey towards mental well-being. My goal is to guide clients in discovering practical solutions that resonate with their unique life circumstances.
