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!
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..
I have experience in a variety of areas and a passion for helping individuals and families move from just surviving to thriving!
For clients that desire it, I will integrate faith and biblical principals into the therapy process.
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.
I regularly incorporate components of DBT into my practice to develop skills for emotion regulation, improve relationships, and avoid harmful behaviors.
