Is your mental health wellness manageable on some days and at other times you feel over come by certain thoughts, emotions, past trauma response experiences, as well as interpersonal relationship conflicts?

Accepting residents of MN. Do you often feel misunderstood, scared, stuck, unheard, or like you don't matter? Sometimes life experiences have us feeling like we are constantly struggling or fighting to survive. Maybe you feel like it's difficult to connect with others or even find it difficult to love yourself. This can leave you feeling lonely and unsure of the future, possibly even unsure if you can trust anyone to understand your struggles. I have interest in helping those who struggle with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, and psychological trauma.

I am a certified anxiety and trauma therapist (EMDR), and relationship expert (PhD. in marriage and family therapy and LICSW) with over 19 years of experience. I provide individual, couple, group, and family therapy. I have a natural health approach. Many of my clients are seeking alternatives other than prescription medication for anxiety and depression. I am a practitioner of yoga and a herbalist. I'm not just EMDR "trained", but also certified with advanced hours in trauma. Best times to reach me for a free phone consultation - before 11 am, between 2-3:00 and after 7 pm.

Every person is valuable and special even though this may be hard to believe due to fear, anxiety or depression. You may be so consumed with worries about your health, money or relationships, that it is difficult for you to feel happy. You may be in so much pain at times that you are waiting for your day to end so you can finally be alone. You don't have to feel this way. Therapy can help.

My overall goal when working with people is for them to come to a place of understanding & acceptance with decisions already made, and yet to be made. I make it my goal to provide individuals the tools needed for self-empowerment and improved patterns of living and thinking via humor, honest observation, and respect. Mode of therapy is through telehealth.

Hello & welcome. Seeking therapy is a decision of courage and I’m so glad you are exploring this option. I provide therapy to residents of Minnesota, in person & via Telehealth. I love working with a variety of clients, including those struggling to adjust to major life changes, have experienced grief and loss, or are struggling with substance use issues and considering positive steps to improve their health and well-being. Therapy can be hard work, but when a client is motivated for change, I find it very inspiring and a privilege to work collaboratively with these individuals to reach the goals they have identified for themselves.

I believe that growth and change are always possible, and I am here to help guide clients in their unique journey. Whether you are struggling with issues related to trauma, addiction, feelings of sadness, self-doubt, shame, guilt, or any other life/situational stress, recovery is ALWAYS possible and there is ALWAYS hope. I use science based treatments and assessments tailored to your individual needs so you can heal and learn to reclaim your life in a safe, non-judgmental, supportive therapy environment.

People who see me for individual therapy are usually facing turmoil either due to current stressors or past issues that keep surfacing and prevent them from moving forward in their lives. Often, people tell me that they feel "stuck" and need direction/guidance. By working with me they identify their inner strengths and capabilities; they feel confident in themselves to take on challenges that come their way. In therapy we identify things that should change because what clients are doing currently is not helping. I problem solve and discuss ways to make their present meaningful. My strength based approach resonates with clients.

I enjoy working with individuals with a wide variety of substance abuse issues, ranging from slightly problematic use that needs to return to center, to use that is profoundly destructive to the individual's quality of life. I've found that many people are looking to deepen their understanding of "why" they're over-relying on substances, so they can address the cause(s) directly and decrease their use of risky or harmful coping skills without feeling deprived or forced to endure compounding stress.

I feel privileged to help guide clients on a journey toward living more fulfilling lives. Whether client's struggle with anxiety, OCD, perfectionism or an eating disorder, my therapeutic style is to take a compassionate and nonjudgmental approach in our work together. I strive to meet clients wherever they are, and help them move towards where they want to be based on their own goals and values. I believe connection, collaboration and humor are essential qualities to fostering a trusting and warm therapeutic environment where I will encourage vulnerability and risk taking to help client's move towards what is important to them.

Being a person can be hard! If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship or substance use issues, or any of the difficult feelings that come with being human, I want to help! When you learn to trust your own intuition, identify your needs, and define your boundaries, you are better able to advocate for yourself and create the life you want. I focus on helping each individual to make deep connections, uncover your inner strength and wisdom, and cultivate a meaningful, fulfilling life. At times, you may just need a little extra support wherever you're at, and I'll meet you there!

Just like every client is different, every therapist is different, and it's important to find someone who you like working with. We might be a good match if you are someone who is willing to try new things, as a lot of therapy is thinking about things in a different way. We could be a good fit if it's important to you that you can talk to your therapist about anything and not feel judged. I value creating a shame-free environment where clients can truly speak. Also we might be a good match if you enjoy humor in your sessions. Therapy shouldn't be all miserable. I aim for 25% miserable, tops.
