I've worked with a myriad of clients and patients over the 27-year course of my social work career. I went back to grad school in 2015 to pursue my MSW and completed that in 2018 and my journey to become a therapist continues. I love working in a small private practice setting and the environment has nurtured my creativity and curiosity as a therapist which has allowed me to bring my own flare to the scope of my practice. I have an affinity for BIPOC communities, LGBTQ+ individuals, and individuals who have experienced various forms of trauma throughout their lifetime. I'm poly-and-other-relationship-types friendly.

I am passionate about helping you heal & grow. I provide a comfortable, non-judgmental & supportive atmosphere where you can process difficult emotions, gain awareness of what keeps you in suffering, & integrate newfound insights to bring relief. I am sensitive to the ways your past experiences & future anxieties impact your present. When traumatic events or unexpressed feelings are left unattended we can become identified with these states and depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship problems and self-sabotage can arise. It can be difficult to make changes & overcome obstacles without support, new tools or insight.

I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in working with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. Issues I address: interpersonal conflict, negative body image, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, depersonalization/derealizaiton disorders. Common issues that are typically addressed: life transitions, dealing with a new medical diagnoses, problems within relationships, parents struggling to communicate with their children, children/adolescents having academic or social difficulties, personal or social isolation, difficulties managing day to day life. I am licensed in Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois.

My ideal client is someone who is struggling with their mental health, and has a body-focused repetitive disorder (BFRB) such as hair pulling or skin picking disorders.

**Currently not accepting new clients** I believe that therapy is a joint venture between the client and therapist. It is a way to learn about how each construct the meaning that forms our lives and our feelings and to take responsibility for constructing them to be what we wish. My role as therapist is to correct, understand, empathize, suggest and confront. Therapy can be in turn difficult, fun, painful, confusing, boring, upsetting and once in a while transcending. Because the construction of meaning in our lives is active, I am not a passive listener but an active participant in the process of relationship and change.

Are you tired of being stuck? Have you tried to change but find yourself repeating the same mistakes?

I do analytic work in accord with training of the C. G. Jung Institut, Zurich. There is special attention to dreams, creativity, and attention to the unconscious. Depth psychology takes time, and people work diligently. In the process the whole personality is engaged. Jungian psychology is forward looking and may elucidate the way through difficult transition. I work for a reduced fee, in lieu of insurance payment. This is an opportunity to do Jungian Analysis at an affordable cost. I appreciate work with individuals that have done therapy, gained psychological understanding, and would like to go futher into depth psychology.

We each have unique experiences, personal strengths and challenges that shape how we move throughout the world. Whether recognized or not by others, those of us who live them know the truth; our experiences as racial, sexual, gender or ethnic minorities impact many aspects of our existence. Similarly, individuals who live with seen and unseen disabilities, as well as personal trauma, utilize quiet resilience to cope with challenges that remain invisible to others. Sometimes practical problem -solving contributes to change. Other times, the realities of life cannot be altered, they must be walked through courageously and presently.
