  • LPCC

I am licensed in Minnesota with 5 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, & concentration, memory. I am also proud to offer Christian counseling to those who are looking for a faith-based approach. Before deciding to become a counselor, I earned my bachelor of arts degree in Pastoral Studies. I also have experience with focus concerns related to ADHD, as this has also been a personal challenge. I work with my clients to create an environment where you can come as you are, foster growth, and find hope.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
