When is the last time you did something just for yourself? We can place such importance on being everything to everyone that sometimes we struggle to meet our own needs and allow our own voices to be heard. Together we can create a unique space that allows you to show yourself the compassion and empathy that you are so deserving of and I would love the chance to help you regain your voice and learn new ways to ask for what you want and more importantly, what you need.

As a therapist, my goal is to empower others and utilize a strength-based, integrative approach to fit the needs of each individual client. One of my priorities in my practice is to provide a safe place for people to express themselves and be vulnerable in a non-judgmental environment. Previous experiences in my life have influenced my career path, which often gives me the ability to connect easily with others. I have an undergraduate degree in addiction studies from Minot State University and a master’s degree in counseling from the University of North Dakota.

Are you a highly driven person with a plate that’s always overloaded? If you answered…“all the freakin’ time.” Then you’re in the right place, Welcome! To those around you, you appear very much together. Meanwhile, on the inside, you feel like you’re having multiple silent panic attacks. Anxiety pops up over everyday things, mistakes you’ve made, circumstances that don’t go according to plan, or an unexpected event that adds more to your plate. You’re dodging anxiety bombs of varying sizes and when they do go off, it leaves you feeling an overstimulated mess.

Accepting New Clients. Understanding ourselves requires courage. Each of us have shame, pain, and broken relationships. At times it can feel overwhelming to face these places in our lives alone. Counseling offers a safe, confidential, and relational space for you to come and understand what has/is happening in your life. My hope is that you may understand yourself better and come to trust yourself. As you care for yourself, you will find that forging safer, healthier, and more satisfying relationships with others is possible. I am a trained relational psychotherapist; I work with adolescents and adults in the Fargo/Moorhead area.

There are times in life when a person can feel overwhelmed, lost, or unsure of where to turn. Whether this is brought on by a difficult experience, life change, or other circumstances, help is available.
