Welcome!

I approach therapy with authenticity, warmth, humor, and curiosity, and believe that you are the expert on your own life. Living in this world can be challenging, all the more so for the ways you may be impacted by systemic oppression and inequitable systems, and I appreciate the steps you took to get to where you are. My goal is to create a warm, inclusive environment where you (and your loved ones) can strengthen your relationships and grow into the fullest, most authentic expression of yourselves.

Grounded in attunement and intuition (yours and mine), my approach draws on systemic theories and a relational, neurological, and somatic understanding of trauma. I believe that healing happens through connection—with ourselves, our bodies, our stories, and the people and communities around us. I strive to provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed therapy and cultivate an inclusive space for all identities, including those who identify as BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA+. I love to work with individuals, couples/partners, and families.

I earned my Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota. I also hold a Master of Divinity degree from Harvard Divinity School and have experience in intimate partner violence prevention and response, religious trauma, religion and faith, and youth development. I offer Prepare and Enrich assessments for those seeking premarital counseling and have received training in Anchored Relational (AIR) Network Therapy for complex trauma and dissociation.

I live in Minneapolis with my partner, dog, and cat. I enjoy long walks with friends, cooking imperfect but delicious meals, and knitting elaborate blankets. In both my personal and professional life, I am motivated by connection and community.

I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. I look forward to connecting with you!
