I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of Wisconsin. My passion is working with couples. No matter how many couples I meet and work with, I appreciate the unique stories all people and relationships have to tell. Most of us want to have successful relationships in life. I work with both couples and individuals in helping to achieve this.
I enjoy treating relationship struggles, including marital issues, infidelity, dating concerns, roommate problems or any other relationship dilemmas. In addition, I see clients dealing with life challenges, eating disorders, anxiety and depression. I enjoy working with individuals and families, however my passion is working with couples.
I understand that starting therapy can be a scary process. It can be a little frightening to share your inner most thoughts with a complete stranger. Many clients have shared with me that they appreciate being able to be open and honest with a neutral party which is what I try to offer. I work to create an open and inviting atmosphere for everyone who walks through my door. It is important to feel like you have a "good fit" with your therapist, which is why I take the time to listen to what brought you in and explain what you can expect from therapy, as well as hear your concerns and personal goals. It is not my job to judge, blame, or take sides. I work with you to provide tools, identify the resources you already possess and offer new ways of communicating to help alleviate some of the current stress you might be feeling.
I have earned a Master of Science degree specializing in Marriage and Family Therapy from St. Cloud State University. My experience includes working with clients in outpatient therapy as well as in-home settings. I previously worked at a private practice in Iowa before relocating to Wisconsin. I have been working in the field of therapy for 12 years. I enjoy laughing, cooking & baking, reading, and being active outside.
