Grief counselors and therapists in Eau Claire, WI

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. Finding the right therapist is important!

I work with individuals as young as 3 years old and adults. I enjoy working with all ages to support individuals throughout their journey.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, behavioral issues, and parenting strategies, but I have extensive experience with various mental health disorders.

As a parent of two, I understand the challenges and joys of everyday life. I'd be honored to help you, your child, or your family navigate difficult times.

experienced counselor of over 20 years - master's degree from the University of Iowa - college instructor - midwestern upbringing - married to a professor and two adult kids.

I graduated from UW-Stout in 2020 and had a crash course of therapy during the pandemic. This has allowed me to become a more empatheic and passionate therapist who works hard to support clients through all of life's changes. I specialize in couples and relational work, but also work with indiviudals who are looking to navigate grief, anxiety, life changes, and stress. I support and research women's health, fertility/infertility and treat perinatal mood disorders.

The therapeutic process is one of endless discovery and self-empowerment. Seeking out help is a valiant first step in this personal journey to befriend yourself. Befriending yourself greatly opens the internal space to invite others in so that we might have fuller, richer, and more wholesome relationships with those we love and those we’ve yet to meet. If you seek to reconnect, or connect more deeply, with your inherent goodness, then please reach out. I am deeply excited by the prospect of being able to share this experience with you.

I am Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who is passionate about providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I am known for being friendly, personable, and highly relatable, I focus on building strong connections with those I serve. I love to educate and empower the clients I work with.

Over my social work career, I've worked in education, private practice, and healthcare, and each setting has broadened my ability to connect with people across a wide range of ages, ethnicities, and gender identities. I have training and experience in anxiety, depression, various intimacy concerns, couples work, and trauma, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and strength-based approaches, among others. Because I believe in working with the whole person, my training in mindfulness and yoga (RYT-200) is woven into the emotional regulation skills I teach. Above all, I want you to know that you'll be met here with warmth and without judgment.
