Be my guest

I have been a mental health therapist since 2011 and a social worker in Minnesota since 2003. I have enjoyed supporting many children and families in my community as they worked to grow in self love, management of anger, resolution of physical and emotional trauma, heal through medical challenges, and cope with grief and loss. My hope is that clients I support will feel a level of trust and connection with me as we move through challenges and confront making life changes together.

I am involved in my local community. You might just see me at a sporting event, shopping for groceries, raising money at a fundraiser, or taking a walk in the park with my own family. Small town life might have me crossing paths with my clients from time to time, though I can never disclose my professional relationship with you unless you sign a release of information stating you need me to for your treatment needs. Confidentiality and privacy are critical to the work we do together. I am unable to provide counseling and therapy services for close family members and friends, my licensing board just doesn’t let that be an option. I would however, be honored to help connect you to another clinician to support you on your journey if I am unable to be of support.
