I am training in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (a trauma-focused style of therapy), and I approach therapy through an attachment and client-focused lens.

Hello! I am a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in the states of Minnesota and North Dakota, and a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) in the state of Utah with over 10 years professional work experience. I am also a licensed alcohol and drug counselor (LADC) in the state of Minnesota. My counseling style is guided by you, your goals, and the changes that you want to see in your life. We will work together to help you understand and unpack deeper roots of the challenges you are having, to process them, and live a life you have been wanting.

I work with people that learned to be hard on themselves as a way to survive, but could benefit from kinder ways to motivate themselves. They are often talented, smart, funny, creative, and caring but tend to be too critical of themselves. They struggle with feeling good enough, even though they may have a track record of overachieving. As a result, they may feel stressed, exhausted, and overwhelmed. They come to therapy because they want a more sustainable, balanced, and authentic life. Together, we navigate the complexities of being their true selves in a society that may not value their unique strengths and points of view.
