New diagnosis? Recent loss of a loved one? Life feeling overwhelming? I can help! I believe that healing is a journey that doesn't have to happen alone. As your therapist, I will work alongside you to help process, set goals, overcome obstacles and gain control back in your life. Also, I recognize how difficult it can be to take that first step which is why I am dedicated to ensuring my practice is offered with a very caring, non judgmental and client centered approach.
I have a strong passion in working with individuals coping with anxiety, depression, aging, grief, loss, chronic illness and trauma. My clinical practices are implemented through multiple lenses including Trauma Focused, Family Systems and Strength Based.
I am currently a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I received my Master's of Social Work at the University of Minnesota. I began my social work career over 8 years ago in the healthcare setting working primarily with oncology patients. Currently, I am working in a high school offering emotional support to students and conducting social emotional skills groups. I feel my own personal experiences have really shaped me and driven me to help others along their healing journey. I am really looking forward to connecting with you and taking that first step in the healing process together.

As a dedicated therapist, my primary goal is to provide compassionate and effective support to individuals grappling with anxiety, depression, and trauma. My journey into the field of mental health was driven by a profound desire to help others navigate their emotional struggles and find pathways to healing and resilience.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with diverse clients, each with unique experiences and challenges. This has deepened my understanding of the complexities of mental health and reinforced my commitment to creating a safe and nurturing environment for my clients.
Anxiety, depression, and trauma can profoundly impact one's life, often leading to feelings of isolation, hopelessness, and fear. My approach to therapy is client-centered, focusing on building trust and fostering a collaborative therapeutic relationship. I use a range of modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client Centered Therapy.
Ultimately, my mission is to support my clients in their journey towards healing, helping them to reclaim their lives and achieve a sense of peace and fulfillment. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you along your healing journey.

TREATMENT APPROACHES
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive-behavioral therapy stresses the role of thinking in how we feel and what we do. It is based on the belief that thoughts, rather than people or events, cause our negative feelings. The therapist assists the client in identifying, testing the reality of, and correcting dysfunctional beliefs underlying his or her thinking. The therapist then helps the client modify those thoughts and the behaviors that flow from them. CBT is a structured collaboration between therapist and client and often calls for homework assignments. CBT has been clinically proven to help clients in a relatively short amount of time with a wide range of disorders, including depression and anxiety.
Person-Centered
Person-centered therapy uses a non-authoritative approach that allows clients to take more of a lead in discussions so that, in the process, they will discover their own solutions. The therapist acts as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client's experience without moving the conversation in another direction. The therapist is there to encourage and support the client and to guide the therapeutic process without interrupting or interfering with the client's process of self-discovery.
Trauma Focused
Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) helps people who may be experiencing post-traumatic stress after a traumatic event to return to a healthy state.
Strength-Based
Strength-based therapy is a type of positive psychotherapy and counseling that focuses more on your internal strengths and resourcefulness, and less on weaknesses, failures, and shortcomings. This focus sets up a positive mindset that helps you build on you best qualities, find your strengths, improve resilience and change worldview to one that is more positive. A positive attitude, in turn, can help your expectations of yourself and others become more reasonable.
Culturally Sensitive
Culturally sensitive therapists provide therapy that is culturally sensitive. They understand that people from different backgrounds have different values, practices, and beliefs, and are sensitive to those differences when working with individuals and families in therapy.
