I am honored and grateful to be invited into the work my clients do as they begin their mental health journey.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in both Minnesota and Wisconsin, dedicated to helping you achieve the private, personalized mental health care you and your family deserve.

Raised by two parents; my father a police officer first in rural Kansas, then later in a major West Coast department; Law Enforcement has been part of my life from the beginning. Supporting first responders’ mental health is not just part of my work; it has been a lifelong purpose.

I spent many years immersed in extreme sports and working alongside world-class athletes. I remain active in aviation and understand the intensity, precision, and passion that come with high-adrenaline lifestyles and elite professions. Walking a similar professional path myself allows me to empower others whose talents and passions may feel muted, overwhelmed, or sidelined.

My academic journey spanned nearly a decade and culminated in earning my doctorate. Working alongside other professionals has allowed me to understand the complexities of high-level careers—and the delicate balance required to maintain a healthy and grounded personal life.

Often, it is shame, blame, or long-held secrets that signal a desire for something different. In therapy, we work together to define what “different” means for you and identify the steps needed to move your life forward.

My approach is action-oriented and grounded in positive motivation. I believe you already hold the internal tools necessary for change; my role is to help you access and refine them so your confidence can reemerge.

Specializing in trauma, I work exclusively with BrainSpotting—an approach that has helped many clients transform overwhelming experiences into manageable, meaningful breakthroughs.

Most of us know what we want from our lives; we simply need help mapping the way forward. Counseling with me will help you clarify your roadmap, build your next game plan, and begin living toward your next best day.
