Teletherapy for Anoka, MN

I have the belief that all doors open and close for a reason and that if we desire to be where the creator wants us, he will put us exactly where we need to be and I believe that I'm supposed to be in a place where I help others realize this. I also have a huge passion for instilling hope into the lives of others. I've seen people lose hope and believe the lie that it is non-existent; I have a passion for helping people regain hope and grow personally and spiritually. Fuller Living has locations in Anoka, Roseville, Blaine, and Saint Louis Park.

We offer counseling in Blaine, Anoka, and Roseville for individuals, couples, and families. We journey with clients through their life struggle. We provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which we hear you through ears of empathy and understanding. We have experience working with individuals facing many issues and we believe in the power of effective and efficient care. We believe that there is always hope, that getting to your dreams is possible and that healing is attainable. We journey alongside you through your life difficulties with ears, eyes, and hearts of empathy and understanding.

I have experience working with a culturally diverse population of individuals. My clients range from age 6 to age 65. Most of my experience is working with children, teens, young adults, adults, and families. I believe the greatest success is to accompany the client on their journey and to be the guide to navigate through the challenges of life. I regard the client to be the expert in their lives and it is important for them to discuss their goals and their expectations. My clients who experience the greatest success are motivated and ready to work, open-minded, flexible, introspective, honest, and trusting.

Stuck? Repeating the same non-helpful patterns? Change often begins when we feel really listened to and understood. Struggles get untangled as we tell our stories in a safe place. My approach is to give each client a safe and compassionate place to tell their story and look for new pathways together. Sometimes the hope of change seems almost impossible, but in more than a decade of private practice, I have seen so many couples and individuals restore their hope and find a healing path to a new way of living. I'd love to join you on that healing journey for a season. Come on in. I'm eager to hear your story.

Through art making, creative expression, and verbal processing, I will help you work through daily and life challenges. I will help you decrease and manage anxiety and depression through education and learning coping skills and grounding techniques. I believe that gaining insight through introspection and vulnerability increase self-worth and resiliency. I strive to provide a comforting, judgement-free environment for all, because I truly believe a successful therapy journey relies on the therapeutic relationship. As a biracial woman (Black and Japanese), I aim to be a source of support and healing for the BIPOC community.

Do you need help managing stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, toxic behavior, focus/cognitive function, emotions, goal setting, motivation, achievement, career, grief, trauma, self-identity, work-life balance, or finding calm and happiness? I provide encouragement and guidance toward joy and hope with a focus on body, mind, and spirit to achieve wellness. I collaborate with you, and help you focus on yourself, so you find solutions that work for you. You will learn how to enrich yourself with positivity and purpose, and learn how to empower yourself to live authentically in peace.

It can be very anxiety provoking to make the initial appointment. I want to ensure that I will provide a comfortable, nonjudgemental environment where it is safe to connect in a therapeutic level. I am experienced in and motivated to work with a variety of issues, mental health goals, and life stages. I believe anyone can achieve their goals when given encouragement, validation and the freedom to be authentically themselves.
