About
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working in New Brighton. I work with individuals, families and couples. My therapeutic style is empathic, relationally focused, values authenticity and is always accepting. I consider all of the different factors of past, present and future which impact you today. My goal is to partner with you so that together we can identify your next steps to equip you to live the life you choose. I have a Christian perspective and value spirituality as a positive resource for our lives.
I served for 5 years as a missionary in Haiti and often work with missionaries overseas as they transition to their host country. My cross-cultural experience allows me to view situations from a unique perspective.
I am a trained Sand-tray therapist which uses our more creative side to process problems that may be difficult to put words to.
I have three adult children. I spend most of my free time either hanging out with my family, friends or animals, remodeling my home or paddling on a nearby lake with my stand up paddle board. I am a plant enthusiast with varying degrees of success in keeping them alive and love treating myself to fancy food at least a couple of times a year.
My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
I love Jesus with my entire being and I am a licensed professional Marriage and Family Therapist. I love being able to combine these two because the most important change is rooted in the truth of God.
I believe that God is inviting us to make space to understand our relationship with Him, others and ourselves so that we can live this life more in synch with who he has called us to be. I consider it an honor to work alongside people to create that space.
