I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social worker and live in Minnesota, where I have been in private practice for almost 25 years. I really love my work with clients. I especially enjoy helping clients move from feeling stuck in their lives to feeling empowered. My goal is to help clients live the life they most desire and I have helped thousands of clients to do this.

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

In the first session we will explore what circumstances brought you to make that first call for help, and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We will look at your previous therapy experiences and whether they were helpful or not, and how we might do things to better meet your needs. I will explain that we will work 'in partnership' which means that I will bring my considerable expertise to your issues and you will bring yours. From there we will make an initial plan, which we can revised as needed.

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

In working with clients since 1984 and doing private independent practice since 2001, don't assume I know the answers to the issues you bring to therapy, but I help you tofind your answers. I see you as your most important ally, and I am there to support you.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My dream clients are those who struggle with being, or feeling, 'different' from the mainstream, and those who struggle to accept themselves because of a perceived difficulty, or a disability.
