Life is full of changes and challenges, some of which result in experiences with depression, anxiety, and grief. Other times, our life maybe just gets a little out of focus and off balance, leaving us feeling lost and unsure about where we're at and where we're headed. These are things that we might need support with, so that we may find our way back to a path that has us healing, meeting our goals, and feeling excited about our future again.

I work to ensure a confidential and non-judgmental space for you to share your story and hope that the calm and open atmosphere of my practice helps you to do just that. My work is built around the needs of my clients, working toward goals set by you rather than me. I am experienced in working with adolescents, adults, and families.
I know that making this next step and reaching out for support can be overwhelming and filled with uncertainty. If you feel that I might be a good fit for you, please reach out so that we can visit about what you're looking for in your experience with therapy and scheduling. I am currently licensed in both South Dakota and Wyoming.
