About Me
Starting therapy is a big step toward understanding yourself, and I am here to offer a safe and welcoming space. I work with people facing mental health challenges, trauma, ongoing symptoms, sexuality, identity, and significant life changes, always focusing on collaboration and your needs. I support children, teens, and adults. I have experience helping with anxiety, depression, neurocognitive and personality concerns, major mental illness, Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In our sessions, I use a mix of behavioral therapy approaches, along with trauma-informed care, to create a plan that fits you.
Education & Experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a bachelor’s in child psychology from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and a master’s in social work from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I have also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). My interest in therapy grew from my job and research on how childhood trauma affects resilience in adulthood. When I am not working, I enjoy reading, coffee, yoga, and spending time with my family.
