Current Work
Adult Autism Assessment
I provide adult neurodiversity-affirming autism assessments through Prosper Health.
Availability varies by state and insurance credentialing. In Minnesota, assessments are available on a private-pay basis (payment plans available).
End-of-Life Care
My current interests increasingly center on grief, mortality, and end-of-life care.
I am currently involved in volunteer work with The Bardo while exploring additional training and future offerings in this area.
This work is still evolving.
Occasional Offerings
From time to time, I may offer:
meditation facilitation
workshops
consultation
About
My background includes individual psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and meditation teaching. I have primarily focused on working with the LBGTQ+ community.
While I am no longer providing therapy services, I continue to maintain a focused professional presence as my work evolves.
As a human and psychologist, people say I am an engaged listener who is an intuitive, culturally sensitive, quick witted, and grounding presence.
If it sounds like we might be a fit, I look forward to connecting with you soon!
The Technical Stuff
-
I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Wright State University's School of Professional Psychology
I am a licensed psychologist in Minnesota (LP7022)
I am a member of PSYPACT (APIT#15206). While I am only taking on therapy clients who can come in person in Minneapolis, I am able to provide gender-affirming surgery evaluations/letters to adults across the country in PSYPACT states
-
I have advanced somatic therapy training (Level 1) through the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute
I am a RYT 200 certified yoga and meditation teacher with experience teaching Restorative Yoga, Meditation, and Inner Child Healing Workshops
I completed training in Writing Letters for Gender Affirmative Surgeries at Deep Eddy Psychotherapy and completed additional Clinical Supervision for gender affirming care at the Transgender Training Institute
-
My work is grounded in feminist and interpersonal process theories, which means I am perpetually considering how systems of power and oppression contribute to what you're going through and how this shows up in your relationships, including ours
As a Level 1 Sensorimotor practitioner, I integrate somatic/body-based interventions, allowing us to tune in more fully to what is happening in the moment while trusting your body's innate wisdom
With over a decade of (mostly) consistent meditation practice and study, I integrate mindfulness strategies and practices into therapy, and I can help you with strategies and techniques for developing a meditation practice if desired
-
I primarily work with people assigned female at birth (though not exclusively!), members of the LGBTQ+ community, therapists and other helping professionals, adult children of emotionally immature parents, and people navigating big life changes (e.g., coming out late in life, divorce or other changes in family structure, career changes, etc.)
I work with people who are navigating anxiety, shame, high-functioning codependency, relational trauma, childhood emotional neglect, grief (including suicide loss), and the impact of systemic oppression, particularly on those in the LGBTQ+ community
