Toddler Therapists in Shoreview, MN

I work with couples, individuals, families and children online, via teletherapy, as well as in person. I support my clients across the life span to heal from losses and improve their relationships.

Are you stuck? Have you tried the traditional paths of medication and therapy and been unsatisfied with the outcome? Would you like to address the root cause and directly train your brain to become more efficient and effective? I am a registered nurse who worked in the hospital providing direct patient care for 20 years. I have witnessed the debilitating effect that dysregulated nervous systems have on patient's mental and physical well being. Traditional treatments of medication and therapy alone may not be sufficent for addressing brain dysregulation.

I integrate the ancient wisdom of Hindu Chakras, Anishinaabe Grandfather Teachings, and Christian Virtues with the Kwanzaa Principles, U.S. Army Values, and the CASEL competencies (self-awareness, social awareness, self-management, relationship-building, and decision-making). Wherever you are, that's our starting point and you get to choose the paradigm that is most relevant to you.

I believe it is important to empower others to consciously narrate their lives. I value helping people through empowerment, nurturance, and education. I am innovative provider and enjoy creativity in the therapy room. I utilize a strengths based approach in therapy, and see the therapy as a collaborative process. I am passionate for helping individuals find confidence and courage, and I admire their resilience.

It’s important to have a space to talk about the most intimate aspects of our lives in a way that is non-judgmental, safe, and compassionate. My hope is to help people of all identities (gender, sexual, and relational) to feel embraced as they are, while working to become the version of themselves they hope to be. My interests include couples therapy, affairs/infidelity, co-parenting, grief work, somatic/trauma work, and family of origin issues.

I am an outpatient therapist and clinical supervisor with more than 10 years of experience in providing services to children and families. I have specific specialties in early childhood mental health and permanency/adoption concerns. I am trained in Trauma Informed Child Parent Psychotherapy (TI- CPP) for children under 6 and completed the Permanency and Adoption Competency program through the UMN in early 2015.
