Great to meet you!

Anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress, and adjustments to changes are some examples of reasons for seeking therapy. If you are looking for a partner in your healing journey, I am here to help you reach your goals towards feeling relief! I am physically located in South Dakota, in the beautiful homelands of the Lakota. I am licensed in Iowa and NY as well. I am originally from Western NY and I cherish my connection to my home!

My approach to therapy

I believe that each person has their own journey in healing, and as your therapist I am here to provide empathetic support and guidance. I am certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy as well as Mind-Body Medicine Skills. Through my training, I believe that somatic work is powerful in strengthening connection to ourselves as well as the world around us.

What you can expect from me

You can expect clinical expertise in our first session. I have over 20 years of experience to offer you. I will ask you about what has brought you in. My goal is to understand your goals for healing and together we can create the path to get there.
