Interpersonal Therapists in Rosemount, MN

I believe life's challenges are opportunities for us to grow as human beings. Whether you or a family member are struggling with an old problem that keeps coming back or facing an entirely new problem, there is hope. I use research based assessments and treatments to help you or your family member overcome these concerns and thrive in your life.

I am currently waitlisted about 9-10 weeks for new patients. I use an Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach to psychotherapy. I am enthusiastic and passionate about the IFS model and adhere to the belief that there are no bad parts of ourselves, just parts we haven’t had the chance to become friends with yet. As an IFS therapist, I assist my clients with restoring harmony in their inner family systems through Self-leadership. The goal of IFS therapy is to assist parts in relaxing from extreme roles (reducing mental health symptoms and challenging behaviors) and to heal from our past experiences (trauma, shame, 'burdens').

My experience as a therapist for over two decades has shown me that we have been programed through the hormones of stress and traumas to repeat the same thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Without changing and deprogramming from the inside out our lives and our relationships become dysfunctional and problematic. If you ever asked yourself if you may be narcissistic or someone might suggest that you are it's possible that your thoughts and behaviors become harmful to yourself and others. If you've ever thought that depression and anxiety have taken a real life than you have been programmed through the hormones of stress.
