Now accepting new clients for telehealth (video and phone). My mission is to empower and educate. As an LPCC, I enjoy building relationships with clients and helping them achieve their goals. My style of counseling is focused on self-exploration and increasing an individual's level of understanding around their current life circumstances, as well as their behaviors and reactions to those circumstances.

As you know, the therapeutic alliance or relationship you have with your therapist, is one of the most important components of successful treatment outcomes, regardless of the specific form of therapy that is employed. In other words, you need to look for a “good fit” for your specific needs, values and challenges that are before you. With that in mind, I have the following for your review. Past experiences: United States Navy, retired Minnesota State Trooper, ordained minister and adjunct faculty member at 3 different colleges. Don’t worry, I don’t give out tickets, nor make arrests, nor push my religious beliefs upon anyone.

We are all trying to live a life that has meaning and worth. When our best efforts don't work, we may become "stuck". This is where a counselor can help you interpret and re-frame the issues to chart a path to help get "UNstuck". My goal in therapy is to create a safe place to talk about the issues and work towards a solution. Maya Angelou says it best: "You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them. If you cannot make a change, change the way you have been thinking. You might find a new solution."

It takes courage to seek out professional help. Good therapy gives clients the ability to recognize their inherent strengths and the healing possibility in their situations. My goal is to create a supportive, therapeutic environment where clients can begin to understand their feelings while discovering the barriers limiting their full potential.

While I like working with all types of clients, I particularly enjoy working with couples as well as individuals struggling with anger. If you are an angry person yourself or you have an angry teen that needs someone to talk to (that isn't their parent), I'm ready to listen and help. For couple's therapy, I follow the Gottman theory rather closely. Issues I can help with are broad, but cover general intimacy, infidelity, communication struggles, and so on.

Finding a therapist that you feel comfortable with, and connected to is key to a positive and successful therapy experience. Finding one that specializes in your areas of concern is equally important. For the past 20 years, I have focused on helping children, adolescents, and their parents heal and grow through therapy.

Working at Innovative Psychological Consultants, I believe finding relief and the tools to cope and manage all of life's stressors is what alleviates symptoms, restores balance, and makes people successful. Many things in our lives can impact our functioning, therefore, I use an eclectic approach to therapy, finding the right tools for each individual. I also believe that humor and the ability to enjoy life, even when there are struggles is an important part of ones spirit and the therapeutic journey.

Such therapists often work with their clients to create a treatment plan that encompasses different techniques to best address the client's particular problems and to appeal to their sensibility.
