Therapists in North Dakota

Finding the right "FIT", in many aspects of life, can be a challenge. I have had the opportunity to work within various systems to include group home settings, inpatient hospital, human service centers, and private practice. I have been able to see clients in all parts of their journey and appreciate being able to go along side clients to work toward their goals in life. I will be offering in-person and telehealth.

If I were a baker or a mechanic, then who I am as a person wouldn't matter, as long as the donuts are good or your car gets fixed. However, with counseling, how you feel about your counselor matters significantly. Being a good fit is a necessity. I hope that this brief narrative gives you an idea of what working with me might look like so that you can make an informed decision if I'd be an appropriate fit for what you need. I value the science behind what we feel and why we feel it. I value humor. I value unconditional regard for those I serve. These are integral to my work.

Are you finding yourself feeling down, no longer feeling like yourself, and craving some change in your life? Do you just want to get back to feeling like the person you once were or know you can be? If the desire for change and wanting to realize your true potential and purpose resonates with you, you're not alone. As a retired veteran of the U.S. Army, I understand the importance of resiliency and strive to share that knowledge along with the power of perspective while navigating life's challenges and adversities with my clients.

Are you someone who, despite your numerous accomplishments, never feels quite good enough because behind that smile, you are grappling with past hurts, struggling with relationships, or feeling weighed down by the burden of perfectionism? I specialize in working with older teens, young adults, and middle-aged women who are ready to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery. Through individual therapy, I provide a nurturing and secure environment where we explore your past experiences and help you understand how they may influence your present actions.

An ideal client for me is anyone that wants to engage in therapy and better themselves, their situation, and their life. I love the variety of clients I see and am ready to meet them where they are at. Whether it's a life transition, daily life stressors, relationship challenges, or something more long term, I am here to help. I enjoy seeing teenagers and adults. I would be honored to support you through your mental health journey and improving your life.

When a person is faced with life stressors, it can be hard to know how to "act" or "present themselves." An ideal client is one who recognizes that something is not right and takes the first step in seeking help. That is the most difficult part. They recognize the way they are feeling is not how they want or need to feel. It takes courage to ask for help and I understand the process of finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I am proud of you for taking the first steps towards a positive change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you through your journey.

Let’s face it, life can be challenging at times, and you do not have to go through it alone. If you are reading this, you are already taking the first steps to a better tomorrow. I am here to help you navigate whatever challenges you are facing. Therapy is a collaborative and creative approach that offers self-reflection and self-discovery. My passion is to help empower people to assert control over their mental health, cultivate your strengths, relieve emotional distress and suffering, and to make space for your thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

With a dash of sarcasm and a sprinkle of humor, I try to bring a refreshing and engaging approach to therapy.

If you are feeling stuck in unhappiness, overwhelmed by the pressures of daily life, or have been carrying a burden for too long, you are not alone. Therapy can help you heal from the past, feel more connected to the people around you, stop unwanted thoughts and find more enjoyment in your life. I help people overcome their past to be able to build better relationships, find their drive and live a more satisfied life.

My life-long passion is to help children, adolescents, and families heal. I work with children with a range of presenting concerns including attachment, behavior, mood and anxiety. I provide evidence-based treatments within a caring, trusting therapeutic relationship. I enjoy working with children that are considered "complex" including those who have had early developmental trauma and those who have behavioral difficulties that cause significant challenges. Helping parents to become more attuned and connected allows for healing across generations.

I provide therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults. I believe building relationships with clients is the most important piece of successful therapy. I love what I do because it allows me to walk next to people I would never have met had I chosen a different profession, as they work to make amazing life changes. I have the honor of meeting people at their worst, all while watching them grow into the people they’ve always wanted to be.

Life's journey can often throw us curve balls. Everyone is worthy of love and belonging, however sometimes it is hard to be able to put yourself first and nurture your emotional needs. With the correct level of support, I firmly believe that anyone can achieve better emotional stability, find moments of joy, and learn to live in the present. No one is able to "fix" another's mental health concerns, yet through support, encouragement, education, empathy, and understanding, you can have the knowledge and tools to reach your own personal goals. I have worked in the mental field for 10 years.

When is the last time you did something just for yourself? We can place such importance on being everything to everyone that sometimes we struggle to meet our own needs and allow our own voices to be heard. Together we can create a unique space that allows you to show yourself the compassion and empathy that you are so deserving of and I would love the chance to help you regain your voice and learn new ways to ask for what you want and more importantly, what you need.

I provide therapy for children, adolescents, and young adults. I believe it is my job to meet clients where they’re at and provide services specific to their needs. I am honored to be a positive change agent in the lives of those I work with. I believe in a holistic approach, not only considering the person as an individual, but as part of a greater working system.
