I am a co-owner of a psychotherapy collective in the heart of Minneapolis, MN. I work with children and adults as the navigate the complexities of their inner and outer worlds utilizing a psycho-dynamic approach. In June of 2025 I graduated with a PhD from the Institute for Clinical Social Work in Chicago, IL with a focus on psycho-dynamic/psychoanalytic theory. I am profoundly grateful for my experience in my doctoral program, including the education received, the congruent personal analysis, and the ongoing case supervision for the past five years that have together greatly shaped me into the clinician, researcher, and person I am today. I am currently interested in the use of art as a portal to learning more about the depths of the human experience. While I am not an artist myself, I do find myself quite moved by the arts, and often gain a deeper understanding of my subjective experiences within creative spaces.
