WELCOME – I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and MN Board-approved Supervisor with over 20 years of experience working in nearly every level of care, treatment setting, and with a wide array of patient concerns. My areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, divorce, eating disorders, and grief/loss. I also have specialized training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
As a therapist, I am adept at cultivating a safe, authentic, and collaborative environment where together we explore the underlying dynamics of your presenting concern and impact upon your life. We will identify your inherent gifts, values, and strengths, which will enable you to live beyond your obstacles and move towards a more fulfilling and vibrant life.
I am very engaged in your therapeutic process and will do more than simply listen, agree, and nod my head. I also have a keen ability to see through the BS and directly challenge clients about the ways they are selling themselves short, making excuses, and not living up to their potential.
The journey of 1000 miles begins with 1 step - You are worth it!
