I've worked as a therapist for over 20 years. It is such an honor to be invited into people's vulnerable and hopeless places in their story. Through our work together I get to watch them learn, grow and overcome their obstacles to living well. It is such beautiful work!

I love working with clients who want to integrate their faith into the therapy process.

Therapist

I have been a counselor by calling most of my life but finished my official training and master’s program in 2015 from Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary. People often ask me why I do this work. The honest answer is, I truly believe counseling works! I have seen the darkness, and watched it turn to light. Providing a spark of hope for others is indeed a gift. There is hope for anyone and everyone, if you are willing to do the work. As believers, we also know that we are not alone in our healing. We have the great counselor in all our sessions to help lead the way. One that will never leave you or forsake you, in or out of session.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Saint Paul

Finding family therapists in Saint Paul starts with identifying what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication across generations, and relationship strain within the household. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Saint Paul therapists, look for training or specialties that match your needs, such as marriage and family therapy, child and adolescent experience, reunification therapy, or family systems work.

In a mid-sized city like Saint Paul, you may find a useful mix of local offices and virtual appointments. In-person therapy may work well when several family members can meet at the same location, while virtual sessions can help when schedules, transportation, or location make shared attendance harder. Family therapy sessions may include the full family, specific family members, or one person at a time. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for their approach, appointment availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to discuss session structure upfront.

Family counseling in Saint Paul can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and may accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can compare profiles, see estimated out-of-pocket costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
