🎓 Marriage and Family Therapy, University of Wisconsin-Stout

Welcome! As you navigate the challenges, uncertainty, hardships, and joys of life, it can feel supportive to have a therapist join you in that journey. I would love to be there to support you through the range of experiences you may have. I will celebrate with you, listen to you, hold space for you, and meet you wherever you are each day we join together. I will be there with you as you take an active role in transforming parts of your life that need healing, nurturing, compassion, and care.

As a systemic thinker, I value the various identities that make you, you. We all hold different worldviews, and I wish to acknowledge the systems you are a part of and your identities; be it your family of origin, family of choice, race, ethnicity, social class, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, religion/spirituality, and the many more parts of you.

There are numerous parts of us at play during our journey of humanity- and through this we create countless stories. I look forward to supporting you in creating alternate stories that feel right to you, and helping you find compassion for all of the parts that make up your true self. With that being said, the therapeutic approaches I am drawn to include internal family systems, narrative therapy, and solution focused therapy.

I look forward to working with individuals, couples, polyam relationships, and families of all structures. I utilize a person-centered, strengths-based, and sex positive approach in my work. I received my M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. In addition, I have completed my sex therapy certificate, where my passion for working with the LGBTQIA+ community has been supported. In my free time, I enjoy reading a corny romantic thriller by the lake, walking, and spending time with friends and family.
