I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker located in Minnesota. I received my Master's Degree in social work from San Diego State University and have been working with kids and families for the past 14 years. I love working with a variety of clients, helping to learn healthy processes for grieving, behavior modification techniques, and creating opportunities to live and thrive!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session you can expect that we will take some time to explore the challenges that you may be facing, and what your goals are for your future therapy sessions. This will allow us the opportunity to create a plan moving forward..

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have experience in a variety of areas and a passion for helping individuals and families move from just surviving to thriving!

My treatment methods

Christian Counseling

For clients that desire it, I will integrate faith and biblical principals into the therapy process.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a commonly utilized form of psychotherapy that seeks to help people manage mental health problems by changing the way that they think and behave. I frequently utilize CBT in my practice to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressed life.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

DBT is a form of therapy that can be effective in helping people learn to manage their emotions and improve their relationships. I regularly incorporate components of DBT into my practice to help people learn to understand and accept difficult feelings, cope with distress, and make positive changes in their lives.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence based form of psychotherapy that helps people to process traumatic or distressing memories. By changing the way that memories are stored in the brain, EMDR has been shown to be effective in reducing or even eliminating problematic symptoms. I am very excited to be able to offer this model of therapy in my practice.

Grief Therapy

Grief is a journey, not a destination. Walking this journey is highly individual, and there is no right or wrong way to grieve. But you don't have to walk this journey alone. It is a privilege to journey together in grief, learning tools to carry grief well, live with loss, and find acceptance and meaning. Pulling from many modalities and sources allows me to join your individual experience and help find the tools and resources that are the best fit for you.
