Dual Diagnosis Therapists in Wayzata, MN

I am licensed in both Mental Health and Addiction Counseling specializing in helping individuals and families who struggle with mental health and/or addiction issues. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or stress from relationships, parenting, work, significant loss, or struggling with addiction or recovery, I can help. My style is to provide you with a supportive, confidential, non-judgmental space regardless of the issues, and help you discover your strengths to find meaningful solutions. I currently meet with clients both in person and via Telehealth.

Thank you for taking the time to review my profile and congratulations for taking a step toward improving your health and well-being! Are you struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or some other mental health issue? Failing to escape the uncompromising grasp of addiction despite your best efforts?

My primary focus is creating a therapeutic relationship to facilitate change and healing in order to assist you in creating or rediscovering a sense of meaning and purpose in your life and relationships. I specialize in working with adults and families who have experienced the impacts of trauma and chemical dependency to assist in challenging old patterns of managing emotional distress and developing positive beliefs about the world and ourselves. My background in working with individuals who have experienced trauma has led me to pursue training in EMDR and to integrate this practice into therapy.

Are you looking for someone who can help you or your child with mental health and/or substance abuse issues, who understands addiction and mental health and can help in a non-judgmental way, and can allow you or your child to make your own goals for change? Are you a parent who needs help, support or therapy in order to be the parent you want to be? Want to be able to change your thinking and perspective to have a more fulfilling life that you are in the drivers seat of?

I focus on the unique challenges of those in high-pressure careers. The intensity of these jobs often leads to relationship problems, anxiety about performance, stress, exhaustion, and burnout, resulting in a shrinking support network and frustrated partners. That’s why I also focus on the families of such individuals.

The condition of our relationships are crucial for overall peace and contentment in our lives. As someone trained in marriage and family therapy, I focus on the space between you and your loved ones. Sometimes there are past histories of resentment, nonproductive communication styles or cognitive filters that are us causing problems. Sometimes our way of being in the world or the structure of our systems keep us stuck in problematic cycles and patterns. In our work together, we can increase self-awareness and create pathways to relational healing.

It would be an honor to walk with you on a journey to finding or restoring balance, connection, and authenticity in your life. I love to work collaboratively with the people I see to maximize on strengths and natural resilience that may have been lost or forgotten.

Life is not always easy. Add in a global pandemic, community uprise, and our ongoing political environment, and some days it feels impossible. I get it, and want to be a source of reprieve. My goal is to help you create a better relationship with yourself whereby creating better relationships in the rest of your life. I believe that all of us need a person to talk to that has no bias or judgement in regards to what we are facing. I want to 'dig deep' so to speak and get to the root of what is stopping you from living your best life.

SPECIALIZING IN YOUTH AND FAMILIES DEALING WITH ADDICTION! Transitions in life are a very vulnerable time where we have the potential to struggle and get stuck in our thoughts and relationships. Let me partner with you or your child to develop more beneficial thoughts that empower changes that create deeper connections. I work with youth experiencing trauma and social issues learn how to build connections with themselves and others. Through this process I will also use CBT, Mindfulness, Strength based, and Motivational interviewing to develop a healthier mind and body.

Some people find themselves feeling stuck with certain thoughts and feelings. Others find themselves repeating behaviors that lead to unproductive and problematic situations in their life. Therapy is a process where these concerns can be discussed and worked through from a nonjudgmental standpoint. My therapeutic approach is to assist you in reaching your personal or relationship goals with more effective ways of being. The adolescents and adults I work with are understood as individuals that have their own unique attitudes, beliefs, and experiences.

Making the decision to make a change and begin therapy is often filled with various emotions ranging from excitement and joy to fear and anxiety. In addition, navigating which therapist to choose in a fallen world can be confusing and frustrating. Like you, I faced adversity in my life and decided to make a change. By God's love and grace, I have been able to heal from my past, make changes, and live a life filled with meaning and purpose in serving Jesus. I believe you can not give what you do not have. For this reason, I am here to be a vessel for God to work. My hope is God will do for you what he has done for me.
