Welcome! I earned my master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from St. Catherine University and University of St. Thomas. I am an outpatient therapist, director of compliance & clinical supervisor. I thoroughly enjoy working with adolescents and adults in all life stages - primarily ages 13+. I am competent in working with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, complex trauma, domestic violence, first responders, and those involved in the criminal justice system. As a therapist, I believe it is important to find balance in therapy between acceptance and change, beginning where the client is at in order to meet their individual needs. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), DBT-C (for children), DBT-A (for adolescents/teens), Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I can also supervise those working towards clinical licensure as a LICSW, LPC, and LPCC in the state of MN. I work from a client-centered, holistic, and strengths-based perspective to help guide individuals to a place of healing and growth. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with you! If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
