About
As you move through life, you take on new responsibilities, build relationships, care for others, and continue to grow—personally and professionally. From the outside, it may look like you’re doing everything right, yet internally something feels off or incomplete. I help you identify what may be missing and guide you toward a deeper understanding of yourself—so you not only clarify where you want to go, but also how to get there. In my work, I integrate evidence-based therapeutic approaches with my background in brain physiology to help you understand the root of what may be holding you back. Together, we develop more effective ways to process your thoughts and emotions, build practical skills, and create strategies that support lasting, meaningful change. I take an individualized approach to therapy because your experiences are unique and therapy should reflect that. If your life doesn’t feel as aligned or fulfilling as it could, I will listen closely—to both what is said and unsaid—to help you understand the core of your challenges, reconnect with your values, and move toward greater clarity and well-being. Specialties: My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, life transitions and adjustment, identity development, relationship and parenting concerns, family conflict, professional stress, perinatal mental health issues, and ADHD. I bring warmth and compassion while asking clients to come with openness and a willingness to challenge themselves. Meaningful change takes commitment—and that effort pays off. Credentials & Experience: In addition to years of experience in mental health counseling, I hold doctorate in neurobiology and specialize in working with adults navigating a range of emotional and life challenges. I currently serve clients living in New York, North Dakota, and Minnesota.
"I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients develop greater awareness of their thoughts and emotions, enabling more intentional, values-aligned decision-making. I also bring a strong foundation in brain physiology into my work, helping clients understand the neural mechanisms that shape behavior and emotional regulation."
