I am a licensed social worker with professional interests in mood disorders, stress management, life transitions, interpersonal communication, grief and loss, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy. I offer face-to-face virtual visits for a variety of health services and conditions.
I see patients ages 16 and older, Monday and Tuesdays at the Cokato clinic, and Wednesdays at the Annandale clinic.
Hometown: St. Croix Falls, Wis.
I'm passionate about empowering clients to become agents of change in their own lives by fostering the development of new skills and encouraging a shift in perspective when needed. I believe these tenets are fundamental to a healthy and prosperous life.
I became a provider to make a direct and positive impact in the lives of people in my community.
I knew this was the career for me when taking psychology courses in my undergraduate program and learning about this branch of the helping profession.
If I wasn't a provider, I would be an event planner because I love anything that challenges me to be social, creative, and organized all at once.
Practice philosophy: I believe in person-centered, solution-focused therapy where the client is challenged to increase their self-awareness while gaining the confidence and skills to improve their lives. You will be supported and validated throughout the change process, with
evidence-based practices used to gain new skills and build resiliency.
