About Me
I am a second-career clinical social worker whose previous experience includes hospice chaplaincy and local church ministry in an inclusive denomination.
I am able to see clients from South Dakota and Montana in person and via telehealth at Epiphany Mental Health in Belle Fourche, SD.
I employ a variety of evidence-based approaches and tailor them to my clients' needs. The client is in the driver's seat; I function as their GPS to partner with them as they journey towards healing and wholeness.
