Perhaps you're feeling disconnected in your relationship, you're going through a major life change or transition, or you're just beginning your life as an adult and you're feeling lost and uncertain. If any of that feels familiar to you, I can help. In our work together, you will feel understood and safe with me, and therapy will help you create the life, relationship, and identity you most long for. 

I work with couples and adults on relationship issues, life transitions, depression and anxiety, sexuality, and gender identity (transgender, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, agender, nonbinary, etc). I use Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), multicultural models, and an attachment-based framework to conceptualize relationships and behavior. 

I have a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota and am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I have advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy.

In my free time, I enjoy running, reading, being outside, new restaurants, and spending time with family and friends. I live with my husband, two children, and our dog in Minneapolis.
