Managing life's challenges isn't something you have to do alone. I am passionate about creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and empathetic space to help you explore the parts of you that need healing and validation. I strive to create a deep relationship that fosters growth and safety during the most challenging walks of life. I believe therapy should be somewhere you can heal attachments and truly be yourself without shame. Creating a healing relationship with yourself can help you manage life’s challenges and live more authentically. I want to help you discover your strengths, build resilience, and strengthen your mental health. My foundation is the therapeutic relationship using techniques from Person-Centered/Relational. My primary theory is Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help treat the parts that need healing. Being flexible and meeting people where they are at is important in successful therapeutic outcomes. Research reveals that effective therapy is less technique and more about a trusting therapeutic relationship. It's important to find a therapist that's a qualified, good fit for you. Contact me today for more info or to schedule an appointment.

Every person deserves a secure, safe space where they can become their most authentic selves. I strive to approach therapy with genuine compassion, warmth, and empathy. I believe that therapy at its core is a creative, non-judgmental space between equals. This creates an environment where you can be yourself and learn to manage the thoughts and emotions getting in your way. I like to incorporate a combination of techniques from Person-Centered, Adlerian, Solution-Focused, Strengths-Based, and Trauma-Focused counseling approaches to fully comprehend your unique experience and how best to help you. Whether you are struggling with trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, or stress related to any number of life circumstances, I'd be happy to help you find hope and make progress toward your goals. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Registered Play Therapist (RPT), I'm able to provide individual counseling to children (3+), adolescents, and adults. We all need help at times.

I have a passion for working with behaviorally challenging kids, their parents, and women. I enjoy the process of sorting through the outward difficult behaviors and discovering the root of their actions. I have worked with troubled teens and tweens for more than 14 years and have discovered that there is always more than meets the eye with these youngsters. The teenaged years and the few preceding years are difficult times not only for the kids, but parents and caretakers. It may seem that nothing helps manage their behaviors and emotions. I can help kids and their parents find solutions to defiant behaviors. I also have experience in working with clients with traumatic experiences. I am trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), a treatment that targets specific traumatic memories and helps the brain reprocess them. I am also trained in brain spotting, a therapy that evolved from EMDR used to treat a variety of disorders. If you having difficulty with parenting your teen, struggling to navigate past your trauma, or need space to talk, call me to schedule an appointment.

I help people work through difficult experiences so that they can live a more full and hopeful life. My approach to therapy is very relational and I believe that through the therapeutic relationship, one can begin to heal old wounds. I am trained in EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), which helps in processing and changing the way one thinks of themselves in the face of traumatic events. I have found that my mixture of attachment-based relational approach and empirically-backed techniques creates an environment of deep healing. I am also receiving training in AEDP (Accelerated-Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) in July. The work that someone would expect to receive is transformational. I believe transformation comes from the ability to experience one’s truth and gaining mastery over your emotions, by no longer masking, distorting, or blocking them. I meet people where they are at. We all have a story and deserve to be heard.

Mental health impacts each of us differently, making things even more important to not compare or judge how each of us feel and respond to life’s stressors. One of the most rewarding components of my job is truly meeting each client in their defined “time of need”. During your therapy journey, we spend time exploring your emotions, thoughts and behaviors, increasing your self-awareness and “tweaking” the tools to utilize in managing your emotions healthier. Seeking out therapy can be nerve-wreaking. Within my practice, I strive to create a healthy rapport with each client. Creating a trusting relationship with each client allows for the therapy to be tailored to your needs. I am licensed to provide services to those within SD, IA and NE. I offer secure Telehealth services, creating more accessibility. A primary mission has been getting clients in when/as they need support and assistance. As a therapist, mom of 3 active and chaotic kids, wife and various other roles, I can personally understand the feeling when being faced with stressors. I would be honored to have the opportunity to work alongside you during your mental health journey. Contact me today!

Although I have specialized in the full spectrum of eating disorders for over 30 years, my passion is working with emotional eating/BED and weight-loss coaching. I have developed a program called "the glow approach" which will help you develop a healthy relationship with food, which means 1) putting food back in its place as nourishment for your body and learning which foods "work for you" for health and weight-loss; and 2) identifying what role(s) food plays in your life: a coping mechanism to manage feelings, avoid issues, fill a void, and/or self-medicate underlying mental-health conditions such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD. You will learn to navigate the bridge between food and feelings, creating awareness and gaining insight into your emotional eating patterns and what may be interfering with your ability to lose weight and/or keep it off. I use positive psychology and health coaching strategies to motivate and guide you to make lasting personal and lifestyle changes. I am currently accepting clients who are struggling with emotional eating/BED, clients who are needing weight-loss coaching, or clients who are needing support with both. Are you ready to change your relationship with food? Are you ready to begin this journey of transformation? Are you ready to find your glow?

“You can't start the next chapter of your life, if you keep rereading the last one." Sometimes we feel "stuck", like we can't get past something. This can be the break up of a relationship, or a death, or just moving on from some significant event that changed us. We feel like we 'should' be moving on, and criticize ourselves for not, but it doesn't help. In fact, often, it can feel as if we have 'lost ourselves', and that we don't even know who we are anymore. Therapy can help you find yourself again. My expertise is working with life transitions, trauma, & the issues that result - depression, anxiety, grief/loss & others. Experiencing trauma or witnessing trauma leaves behind anxiety, nightmares, physical ailments, trouble with sleeping & appetite, & sometimes flashbacks. I have worked with healthcare professionals, law enforcement and firefighters. With me, you will find a down to earth place to heal, to work thru concerns, to process change, to talk about the past, and to work on feeling better. I am a real person, helping other real people. We will work together.

Since graduating from Mount Mary University (Milwaukee, WI) with a Master of Science in Art Therapy, I have had the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, and adults in both inpatient and outpatient therapeutic settings. As one of South Dakota’s few registered art therapists (ATR), I am dually credentialed and prepared to address both mental health and chemical dependency issues. During sessions, I offer each individual the opportunity to engage in therapeutic discussion, meaningful art making, or both. For me, the most rewarding parts of therapy are: guiding individuals through difficult emotions and experiences, discovering hidden creativity, and exploring how change can be possible. Throughout my 10+ years of experience in the mental health care field, I have seen how seeking support can be a dynamic and inspirational experience. As a part of my professional practice, I create a sensitive and safe environment for clients to be themselves, and share their story without judgement.

I strive to help individuals work towards peace and balance in the complex lives we all lead. An important part of therapy that is often lost when attempting to change or in dealing with change in general is to be at peace with the process. Life has many unplanned twists and turns, and I want to help each person be able to deal with life's challenges with grace and balance. I have worked with individuals with dual diagnoses throughout my career. In addition, I am able to work effectively with family members who may need help working through when a loved one is diagnosed with a mental illness or a loved one identifies as GLBT. I am trained in EMDR.
