Introduction

My career started with a focus on adolescents involved in the juvenile justice system. Eventually I decided to obtain my clinical licensure in order to help people face their challenges on a deeper level. Through my work in community mental health, I found that I click with clients facing a diverse range of mental health issues. People have such unique stories, and I consider it an honor when someone allows me to walk with them on their journey. Some of my specialties include co-occurring disorders, grief and loss, trauma, and adjustment to changes in life's circumstances. I am licensed to provide services in the states of South Dakota and Minnesota.
