You want a healthy, fun relationship, with a sense of safety and security, with healthy boundaries, connection, and where you can be yourself. Your emotional health may stand in the way of creating a healthy relationship with a healthy person. Your past, with trauma and toxic relationships, and your present anxiety with the negative thoughts swirling in your mind keep you from engaging in relationships the way you would like to, keep you second guessing and never feeling stable in relationships, and keep you falling into the same relationship patterns and self sabotage

I specialize in Rumination-Focused ERP for OCD. This approach to ERP focuses on treating compulsive rumination, and provides a highly systematic yet gentler approach to exposure therapy. RF-ERP can be helpful to patients who have not made significant progress in other types of treatment, including individuals with Pure O or Sensorimotor OCD.

Immediate availability! My approach to therapy is warm and interactive. You’ll find me using humor a lot; just because therapy is hard work doesn’t mean it can’t be fun! I enjoy getting to know people on a deep level and helping uncover unconscious patterns holding them back. I'm all about getting to the root of a problem, and I will always be honest and direct with you. I offer a holistic approach to therapy and help people gain insight on the developmental experiences that shaped their current belief systems. To me, the biggest compliment is when clients enjoy coming to therapy and feel empowered to heal.

I believe that building an authentic relationship with each client is one of the first steps in moving towards peace, hope, and healing. As we seek to understand ourselves and the patterns of distress, conflict, or confusion we fall into, taking space to explore our strengths and connections is an important step in building a foundation for how we want to move through our world. I value creating a non-judgmental space for each individual, couple, or family to identify their goals and work together to reflect and acquire the necessary tools to begin to feel whole.

My commitment in therapy is to help people live their fully authentic life - in whatever way that looks like to you. I have a particular passion for those who love outside the box - I specialize in working with polyamory and non-monogamy, kink, and queer and trans individuals. I like to get curious about the things that make you unique, and find ways to make those parts shine, while also holding space for the difficulty of living with marginalized identities. While I am not a trained trauma therapist, trauma, both single-instance and complex, informs all of my work.

Waitlist for MN & CO group teletherapy only. I'm not currently accepting new individual therapy clients. Welcome to my page! I'm so curious what brought you here... Are you an activist, healer or CAREgiver and healing yourself is part of your calling? Has your BODY called upon you to heal through sensation, movement, and creativity? Maybe your ART pushes you to transform complex pain into a wellspring of power and creativity? Or maybe you are an “in-betweener” in some way and you long for WHOLEness in an often-fragmenting world? I would love to help you move through any stuck points and witness you naturally unfold your GIFTS.
