MA
For the past eight years, I have dedicated my career to gaining diverse experience as a mental health professional across various settings. During this time, I’ve had the opportunity to work with individuals facing co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, support families navigating complex and sensitive situations, and assist couples in strengthening the bonds that originally brought them together. In addition to direct client work, I’ve advocated for those experiencing mental health challenges on a systemic level through my appointment to the Hennepin County Adult Mental Health Local Advisory Committee. I have also provided mental health training for various organizations, including the Minnesota Department of Human Services, that focus on LGBTQIA+ and community-based mental health services.
My professional experiences have shaped a therapeutic philosophy grounded in humanistic and constructivist principles. I believe in tailoring my approach to each client’s individual needs, helping them craft a life that aligns with their unique story and desires. I operate on the belief that every person, at any given moment, is doing the best they can with the tools they have.
Whether you’re seeking mental health services for the first time or continuing your journey, I’m here to help you find the clarity and strength to reach your fullest potential. Together, we can pave a path toward a life filled with the ease, comfort, and joy you’ve been seeking.
