About

Hi! So glad to connect. I am a licensed independent clinical social worker licensed in Minnesota with 10 years of experience working as a social worker and psychotherapist. I received my Master of Social Work degree from Minnesota State University, Mankato. I work with teen to adult clients with a wide range of concerns including life change, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, and ADHD. I also help many people who have experienced physical, sexual and/or emotional abuse. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in meeting people where they are and treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, strengths-based, and mind/body practices. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life moving from struggle to freedom. Congratulations on taking the first steps towards change. If you are ready, I am here to support and empower you. Outside of work I enjoy time with family, traveling, reading, gardening, and involvement in my faith community. I look forward to working with you! “Providing Tools For Positive Emotional Growth and Resilience"
