Scrolling. Not sure what you are looking for on the page? That is okay. We are all looking for that one thing that makes us stop scrolling, whether that be an image, a quote, or person that resonates with us, that speaks to us. We stop with the possibility that someone else might be able to see us and understand us or someone we love.
For the past eight years, I have been working with teenagers and their families in high school settings. I enjoy navigating the complexities of life with individuals, couples and families. My areas of training include life transitions, anxiety, depression, stress, grief and loss, self-development and communication patterns.
Growth is fostered through connection, validation, and questioning within a safe, contained space. I value the roles culture, socioeconomic status and spirituality can play in our lives. I believe we are stronger than we give ourselves credit for. I have witnessed individuals and couples rewrite their interpretations and interaction patterns of lived and current experiences.
The thought of therapy may contain mixed emotions for you. I want you to know you are not alone in this process. I would like to partner with you to develop a treatment plan based on your goals so you can live out your preferred narrative. It would be a privilege to hear and bear witness to your life’s narrative.
I am in the process of finishing a Master of Arts Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota. I am currently under clinical supervision working towards licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist.
