You're taking the first difficult step towards change by vetting therapists, and I'd be honored to join you on each of the subsequent steps. I've been a clinical therapist for 12 years and employ a variety of tools to help you meet your goals. I'm especially drawn to and skilled in working with folk in transition, whether this relates to your age (preteen, teen or adult), relationship status, identity exploration or shifting life circumstances.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing virtual care to adults in Wyoming, Minnesota and Nebraska.

Therapist

Virtual • Minnesota


I work to provide you a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to work. Each of us are unique and complex. I see my job as helping you to develop tools and skills to deal with your complex life. I am able to help you in the areas of anxiety, depression, motivation, substance use concerns, self-esteem and confidence, grief/loss, and adapting to life changes, to name a few. My goal is to be approachable, accepting, and act as a guide through the process. Much of our power to be happy or unhappy depends on our ability to put our experiences in perspective and find our own path to heal.

We will focus on the strengths you have and how I can help you grow through changing self-defeating thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will work together to identify your goals, what the barriers are to moving forward, and developing needed skills to navigate through or around barriers. We are all human and at times need the help from an objective party to get through our struggles and to grow stronger!
