I am Darian, an LICSW, with small town roots, forever ingrained in my soul. I work with all individuals, ages 6 and up, however have a dear spot in my heart for the kids, teenagers, pre and postpartum moms and individual who have experienced medical trauma.

I have experience working with individuals in recovery, children in the foster care system, children having a difficult time regulating their nervous system, teenagers having a difficult time with their emotions and parents struggling to find balance. Let's "get your glow back" and find some balance in your life.

I received my Bachelors of Social Work from Winona State University and then went to the University of Minnesota, Duluth to pursue my Masters of Social Work. I am a wife to a wonderful husband and mother to three beautiful children. We enjoy the lake in the summer and they hockey rink in the winter. I serve on a nonprofit board for CHD awareness and education, and also on the Pediatric Family Advisory Council for Mayo Rochester Hospital.

15 years practicing in Mental Health. I feel honored to walk along side my clients in their journey.

I am a passionate lifelong learner who brings a warm, adaptable personality to every session. Our work is deeply rooted in your personal growth, with a shared goal of long-term health and healing.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a Master’s degree in Counseling from Adler Graduate School, and I have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I provide therapy for children, teens, adults, families, and groups, and I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, respected, and supported. One of the things clients often tell me is that I am authentic, down-to-earth, and easy to connect with. I believe therapy works best when there is a strong, trusting relationship and when clients feel safe enough to be fully themselves.

My clinical work focuses heavily on anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. I also work with individuals navigating grief, substance use concerns, emotional dysregulation, relationship difficulties, and trauma-related symptoms. I use a collaborative, client-centered approach and tailor treatment to each individual’s needs, goals, and strengths.

I bring over a decade of professional experience to therapy along with my own life experiences, empathy, understanding, and hopefully a little humor along the way.

While my license is as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to live my own life as authentically and intentionally as I can as a parent, family member, and friend; and I bring those same values into the therapy room.

I believe every person has a story worth telling and deserves to feel heard without judgment. It is truly an honor to witness the strength and resilience my clients possess, and I never take for granted the trust they place in me by allowing me to be part of their journey.

I am grounded in person-centered and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Additionally, I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), an evidence-based model designed to help children and adolescents heal from trauma.

For the majority of my career I have supported children, adolescents, and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Autism, ADHD, and learning differences, as well as neurotypical individuals. I have also worked with children and families in Philadelphia’s foster care system, military families, and professionals in the medical field.
