Clients I Work With
I work with adults (ages 18-64) across MN, ND, OH, and UT who are often the "fixers" or "peacekeepers" in their lives but feel secretly exhausted by chronic worry, guilt and childhood trauma. My clients typically present as having it all together while struggling internally with Complex PTSD, generalized anxiety, and perfectionism. They often rely on fawning or substances like alcohol or THC to quiet a relentless inner critic and "turn off" their brains. I specialize in helping these individuals dismantle the survival habits—such as people-pleasing and emotional numbing—that lead to burnout.
Approach
My approach is centered on moving beyond surface-level symptom management to heal the roots of your distress. e create a secure environment where you are free to set down the burdens of "fixing" others and explore the survival habits—like people-pleasing or emotional numbing—that have worn you down. I integrate evidence-based tools like EMDR and CPT to help you dismantle the cycle of self-criticism and anxiety. We’ll work together to understand the "why" behind your reactions, transforming deep-seated survival responses into lasting relief so you can finally prioritize your own needs and rediscover your authentic self.
Beliefs & Lived Experience
don’t believe in "cookie-cutter" treatments; your brain is unique, and so is your path to healing. As a person-centered therapist, I believe you are the expert of your own life. My role is to help you get unstuck so you can finally live the life you deserve. I am deeply passionate about this work because I have been where you are—I know what it’s like to shrink yourself, fear making a scene, and live in a state of constant catastrophizing. I show up with both professional rigor and genuine lived experience, providing a space where you don't have to perform. Together, we will move at your pace to dismantle the survival habits that have kept you small, helping you reclaim your voice and your sense of self.
