I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) with over a decade of experience in the mental health and substance use field. My work is grounded in a person-centered, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive approach that centers empowerment, understanding, and non judgment.

​

I provide individual and relational therapy for adults, including couples, families, friends, and non-traditional relationship structures. I work primarily with marginalized communities and specialize in serving the LGBTQIA+ community, offering gender-affirming care and support for identity exploration and expression. I also work with clients around issues related to trauma, neurodiversity, substance use, sexual concerns, attachment wounds, and personal growth.

​

In addition to therapy, I facilitate outpatient co-occurring substance use groups for queer individuals who have completed residential or intensive outpatient programming and are seeking continued support in recovery. These in-person groups meet 1–2 days per week (3–6 hours total) in Uptown Minneapolis (on a major bus line at Hennepin and 31st) and are available during both daytime and evening hours. The groups focus on reinforcing the tools gained in prior treatment while deepening mental health work, with optional family or partner group sessions to support holistic healing.

 

My clinical work draws from several modalities including Narrative Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), transgenerational therapy,  and attachment-based therapy. I am also trained in EMDR and Anchored Relational Therapy. Each client receives an individualized treatment plan that we co-create to ensure your care reflects your needs, your strengths, and your goals.

​

Your time with me will be rooted in kindness, sometimes humor, and above all, the belief that you are not your problems. Healing is possible, and I’m honored to walk with you on that path.

I accept all major insurance plans, including Medicaid and Medicare in Minnesota. I offer individual therapy both in person and virtually. All group sessions are held in person.

For Clinicians

​

In addition to my clinical work, I provide clinical supervision for professionals across multiple licensure tracks, including:

​

• Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT) in MN

• AAMFT supervision of supervision nationwide

• Licensed Professional Clinical Counseling (LPCC) in MN

• Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counseling (LADC) in MN

• Social Work (eligible for the 25% alternative supervision allowance by the board) in MN

​

I offer both individual and group supervision and bring a relational, collaborative, and affirming lens to supporting clinicians in their development. Supervision with me emphasizes growth, reflection, and sustainable practice—whether you're navigating licensure, identity, or clinical complexity.

If you’re interested in supervision, I’d love to hear from you—feel free to reach out and connect!
