Introduction

Passion & Approach

I have a passion to support individuals, couples, and families through their personal healing journeys. I believe everyone can find healing and live their best lives. Whether you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed, feeling anxious, achieving your goals, finding connection, communication, feeling safe or stuck in a relationship, childhood trauma, domestic abuse, and/or traumatic life event(s) I offer many diverse therapeutic approaches to find the right fit for you. I intently listen to your wants/needs and collaborate with you on the goals you want to focus on achieving in therapy. I am humbled and honored to be given the opportunity to support you and your family. I offer a FREE 30-Minute Consultation for you to see if I may be the Therapist you are looking for.

Specialty & Focus

I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults. I offer individual, family, and child-parent therapy. As a trauma-focused co-occurring psychotherapist I view therapy as a trusting relationship that can foster support along a person’s journey of finding transformational healing. I have a passion to support children and teens through life experiences that can be overwhelming and challenging to navigate in order to lower the long-term impact it can have on their lives. I have the same amount of passion for supporting adults in healing from childhood trauma, complex trauma, and oppressive traumatic experiences.

Career & Experience

For the last 5 years, I have been providing co-occurring outpatient therapy in private practice. I started my career as a Professional Addiction Counselor at Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation in St. Paul Minnesota and transferred to work at the Betty Ford Center part of Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation in Rancho Mirage, CA. I furthered my education by obtaining a certificate in Gestalt Therapy and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University, and a diploma as a Master Herbalist. I have developed co-occurring treatment programs and curricula. I have supported all age groups with co-occurring group therapy, psychoeducation, individual therapy, and family/couples therapy. In addition, I have educated medical students on the disease of addiction as I guided them through an immersive experience in the group therapy process. As an adjunct professor at the University of Nebraska Omaha I taught on the topics of co-occurring disorders and multicultural counseling in the Counseling Department.
