About Me

I lead with compassion and an appreciation for people’s uniqueness. My primary goal is to assist you in increasing your self awareness, self compassion and self confidence. I will partner with you and provide a safe space for you to do this work, to heal, and recover. I provide services for adults and adolescents who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and adjustment disorders. I am passionate about working with people to help them reduce their experience of symptoms so that they can focus on enjoying their daily life. I have earned a BA in Child Psychology from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities and a MA in Counseling and Psychological Services from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota. I am trained in Level 1 and 2 Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and EMDRIA Certified. I see nature as an integral part of the healing process. I have a passion for supporting people in finding their place and healing in nature, specifically through sit spotting and the use of therapy skills outdoors. When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my loves, my people, pets, and plants:). I am an avid gardener and I spend a great deal of time creating native habitat my yard for all to enjoy. I have a deep love for the Northwoods, camping, and learning about native plants and wildlife.
