Many people who have experienced success in changing their lives through therapy will say one of the most difficult parts of the process was simply reaching out to begin services. The hardest part in this journey of change may be reaching out and accepting the reality that you need help. I'm committed to pointing you in the right direction and helping you get where you want to be. Every human being has times in their life that can be difficult to navigate. Those who choose to help themselves have the greatest potential to see the change they desire and those who seek the support of an experienced mental health professional can navigate these times with even greater success.

I've spent two decades helping children, teenagers, adults, parents, and families navigate their unique situations. My work has spanned the globe: from neighborhoods in Nebraska to bustling capital cities in Africa. I take a laid-back approach in helping my clients but also will challenge individuals in order to see necessary personal growth. Whether you're experiencing a major transition... struggling with depression, anger, or anxiety... desiring to find stability in your family... adjusting to a new cultural environment... and/or seeking to improve your overall general mental health, I can help you achieve your treatment goals.
My practice approach uses a combination of psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and strengths-based models. My specialities include: 1) depression, anger, and anxiety. 2) family conflict. 3) major life transitions. 4) cultural adjustment and differences. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Nebraska at Omaha and my Master of Social Work from the University of Iowa. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Nebraska which means I have two state licenses/certificates: Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) and Certified Master Social Worker (CMSW).
My office is located in Dundee in a second floor suite of the historic building . I am an independent therapist with my own practice working alongside group of professionals called Evergreen Wellness Collaborative.
I am taking new clients but there may be a waitlist depending on my current caseload. You can check with your insurance company to determine what your co-pay and session rate will be for seeing me. To schedule your first appointment, feel free to reach out via phone or email today.
