I’ve known I wanted to be a helper my whole life. Like many people out there, I had to try some different avenues first; I started in retail, got a degree in Marketing Communications, worked as a business analyst for a few years, and then I went to graduate school to get my Masters in Counseling and Psychological Services. I’m glad I took a bit of a winding path to get here because it has helped me gain new perspectives and get comfortable with change.

I'm a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with a Masters Degree in Counseling and Psychological Services from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota. I have over seven years of experience working with adolescents and adults providing individual therapy and group programming. I primarily work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, past trauma, and adjustment disorders. My special interests include helping people increase self-respect and self-compassion, as well as navigating stressors related to relationships, work, mind/body connection, and burnout. I also have a passion for working with fellow healthcare providers to reduce the stigma of mental health concerns and the toll they can take on humans who help other humans.
