A Collaborative Approach to Counseling
For over 25 years, I have worked with teens and adults struggling with anxiety, depression and grief due to a variety of life experiences. Many of my clients appear to others to “have it all together,” while at the same time internally feel stuck, struggling to trust their own thoughts and feelings. As a result, they often find it difficult to make decisions, experience healthy relationships and find joy in life.
I bring an energy of presence when working with clients, allowing for the development of a strong therapeutic relationship and approach that is trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered. I draw from practices informed by both cognitive behavioral and mindfulness-based somatic psychotherapies facilitating a greater mind-body connection. My approach invites you to focus on slowing down and becoming curious about what’s happening for you in the present moment. In this way, we will gain a greater awareness of strategies that are no longer serving you and together will find new ways to respond to the challenges showing up in your life.
I have offices in both Ashland and Superior, Wisconsin for in person appointments and am licensed to practice via telehealth in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Ohio.
I am able to accept a variety of insurance plans, but every plan is different. I encourage anyone interested in working with me to reach out directly to their insurance provider regarding their specific mental health benefits.
