I earned a MA in Counseling Psychology at Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota, and a BA in Psychology from the University of MN – Twin Cities. I’m currently pursuing LPCC licensure. I specialize in harm reduction/risk reduction, strength-based, solution-focused, trauma-informed, and person-centered care. I provide safe, healing, and restorative supportive care to people living with HIV and/or AIDs. My being a part of the continuum of care allows for the elimination of stigma and disease, and the optimization of the lives of people affected by HIV. I also serve people in the LGBTQIA+ community and communities of color, most of whom have experienced trauma, stigma, and all the “isms”. My experience involves working with matters such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress response, and severe and persistent mental illness, as well as grief, transition, substance abuse, and addictive behaviors. My belief is that everyone has the right to exist as they are without shame or stigma. I believe everyone has an innate desire to self-actualize, and I’m here to support clients in the process of healing and living in a state of wellness. I walk with and advocate for my clients so they can thrive and live authentically.
