I am licensed in Minnesota with 3 years of experience in helping individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges and improve their emotional well-being. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), emotionally focused therapy (EFT), trauma-informed care, Gottman Institute level 1, mindfulness and compassion-based practices. I work with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, ADHD, trauma, clients struggling with grief and relationship challenges. With a compassionate, client-centered approach, I help empower individuals to build resilience, develop healthier coping strategies, and achieve personal growth. Committed to creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment, I tailor treatment plans to meet each client’s unique needs, helping them on their journey toward mental wellness, balance and more fulfilling relationships.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
