In life, we face trials of many kinds. Sometimes, we find the support we need from the community and people around us, however, there are times when we need a little more, or a different kind of support than we can find in our daily circles. I believe this is where counseling can come in. Counseling is a place for you to come as you are, with all your pain and fear, worries and questions. It is a place to unpack what you have been holding on to, and find grace and care for whatever that is. It is a place to explore and heal and transform in a trusted relationship with another human.

My Christian faith is the guiding light for my life, and it is what led me into this profession. My heart for the work that I do, is that you would feel seen and understood; that you would discover more of how you are creatively designed, learn new skills, uncover existing strengths, and see life from a different perspective. My desire is that you would gain insight and hope, and a deeper understanding for why you might be experiencing life as you are.

Experience & Style

I have been working in the field since 2015, and have been licensed since October 2025. I received my MA from Adler Graduate School, right here in MN, after spending 6 years working in higher education. I enjoy working with individual adults, ranging from age 21 to 70. Exploring the wide variety of life issues we all encounter, I approach the work with a relational style, and frequently draw from cognitive behavior therapy and Adlerian theory. I can provide therapy in person at our Stillwater location, or through tele-health from anywhere in MN.

I am happy to include faith in the therapeutic process to the degree that you would feel comfortable.
