I currently work with individuals, partners, and families. My area of passion and expertise is gender and sexuality. I also view therapy and self-care as an act of resistance and believe it can help individuals with marginalized identities cope with minority stress and systemic oppression. I am currently seeing clients virtually if you live in MN. I work with almost all mental health diagnoses including anxiety, depression, panic disorders, PTSD/CPTSD, bipolar, personality disorders, DID, and schizophrenia/delusional disorders. I also have specialized experience in substance use and eating disorders.

John is a therapist with 25 years experience as a mental health clinician serving adults, couples, children, adolescents and families. His training from the University of Iowa and Simmons College in Boston offers a strong theoretical grounding in psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapy. That is important, but more important is your experience as a client. Our work together will be built upon a helping relationship of trust and understanding. What would it look like? Identifying and solving specific problems; exploring aspects of your "self" and utilizing your strengths; making change that you set as a goal.

Life can be hard - you don’t have to struggle alone! The decision to be open to begin therapy is a major step forward. If you're experiencing low self-confidence, doubt, grief, anxiety, shame, or stress, there is a path to help you create a more fulfilling life in the present. I provide a safe nonjudgmental space where you can feel supported, and empowered as you go on this journey.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step - Lao Tzu.  It's likely that you are here because you are wanting to take that first step in a new direction & would like someone to walk with you.  I understand. I bring over 30 years of experience with people looking to make changes. I am compassionate, empathetic & I keep it real.  Perhaps you want to be heard and/or seen without judgement.  I create a space that holds no judgement.  I want & encourage you to feel safe & empowered, to make this shift feel comfortable, complete & whole.

Life can be difficult to navigate at times but you do not have to do it alone. In our work together I wont try to fix you, tell you what to do or assume what’s best for you. However, I will remind you that you aren't broken, give you room to access your own wisdom, support you in figuring out what to do, and collaborate with you on how to make the hard stuff easier to sit with. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and that it's my job to walk along side you and empower you to work with your own self knowledge during this process of growth and healing. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space for this impactful work.

Therapy for me is the art of helping a person bring wholeness to their life with the Christ-inspired profound understanding that the human person has the potential to be more beautiful after we experience brokenness than before. I’m convinced this is true, even if it may sound hard to believe and just a nice sounding statement.

I have worked extensively for years with men, women, and children who have struggled with anger and domestic abuse issues. The focus is on learning skills and techniques to address behaviors as well as therapeutic education to address the thought processes which attribute to those behaviors. In addition, I work with men, women, and children dealing with other issues. I treat all of my clients with dignity and respect. Focusing on individual strengths and utilizing encouragement and support, clients who wish to make real changes for their lives will have the necessary skills to do so.

"I am not crazy," is the first thing many hear when thinking of mental health. Mental health is less about being crazy and more about over all well-being. Research shows that expressing ourselves can lead to positive change and better understanding of ourselves. During our journey together, I respect my clients by bringing in a culturally informed and non-judgmental lens, utilizing personal, religious/spiritual, and/or cultural strengths approach to healing. Together we will work on listening to our bodies and minds, integrating both in ways that bring positivity and restoration to ourselves and our relationships.
