My Story:
The most important thing to know about me is that I am just real! I am a driven dreamer and I own the good, bad, and in-between that comes with that. I have a naturally hopeful view of the world and genuinely believe in people. I show up for others and recognize the challenges of being a human in this very confusing and beautiful world we all live in. I’m also not afraid to laugh and find it to be one of the most necessary and healing aspects of life. I am a human first and a therapist second, which means I will meet you where you are at and I will not judge you for the things you might be judging yourself for.
My journey to finding my passion in helping others, has not been linear and it has certainly not always been easy. It took me working in a career that allowed me to put on stunning events, meet successful people, and looked great on paper to know that my soul was not fulfilled. I needed to do more for others and I’m so glad I listened to what my internal compass was telling me. As hard as it was to leave in the middle of a successful career, the feeling of being a witness to the growth of those I have the privilege of working with is the greatest honor I have known. Having this experience has taught me so much about following my heart and honoring my needs, which is a crucial practice I work with my clients to help navigate.
Experience & Education:
I have diverse experience working with multiple populations from a systems perspective. I have provided therapeutic services to adults (individuals, couples, and families), adolescents, and children over the age of 10. It has been my honor to help individuals and families with the following mental health and systemic concerns: educational disabilities and transitional needs, eating disorders, couples in distress, depression, anxiety, obsessions and compulsions, chronic illness and many more all from a trauma-informed lens. I am trained in AIR (Adaptive Internal Relational) Network, which is particularly helpful for those with dissociative abilities and complex trauma. I have a passion for helping build stronger connections in your relationships particularly when faced with chronic illness, trauma, and other medical and mental health conditions which effect not just one person in a family, but the entire system. Our relationships and connections make life worth living and it starts with a healthy and positive relationship with ourselves.
I received my undergraduate degree in Communication Arts with an emphasis in radio, television, and film from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and my Master’s degree from Adler Graduate School in Minnesota. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the State of Minnesota. MN License #: 3776
