About Our Consultants

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Supervisor with a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Bethel University. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of serving individuals across the lifespan—children, adolescents, and adults—through outpatient therapy at a clinic south of the Twin Cities. My clinical practice integrates evidence-based interventions such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and DC:0-5 assessment and treatment for children under five years old. I am also a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor (RPT-S), a role that reflects both my advanced training and my deep commitment to supporting the mental health and development of children through play-based interventions.

In addition to my clinical work, I am passionate about shaping the next generation of therapists. I serve as an adjunct faculty member at Bethel University, where I teach play therapy courses and mentor students as they grow in both skill and confidence. I also supervise clinicians working toward their LPCC and RPT licensures, equipping them with the knowledge, clinical skills, and ethical foundation to thrive in their professional roles. This work allows me to combine teaching, mentorship, and supervision in ways that inspire emerging clinicians while ensuring clients receive the highest quality of care.

​

Beyond my direct clinical work, I also provide consultation and training for organizations, with a focus on creating healthier and more trauma-informed environments. My goal in this area is twofold: to support staff in feeling equipped and empowered to serve vulnerable populations effectively, and to foster organizational cultures that reduce burnout and promote long-term sustainability. Through specialized training, workshops, and consultation, I help teams integrate evidence-based practices, strengthen relational dynamics, and establish environments where both staff and clients can thrive.

​

Bringing together my clinical expertise, teaching experience, and organizational consultation, I am committed to advancing mental health care that is effective, compassionate, and sustainable—for individuals, families, professionals, and organizations alike.
