Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors

“Mental health counseling and therapy women. I specialize in treating stress, anxiety, perfectionism, self-esteem and burnout. My services are online, so I can provide safe, secure and non-judgmental therapy to women across the state of Minnesota. Contact me to schedule a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation!”

About Me

I understand the unique pressures women face, often leading to stress, anxiety, or burnout. My online mental health Counseling offers a truly safe and confidential space for you to explore these challenges. We can work together to build self-esteem, manage perfectionism, and find healthier ways to cope. I aim to help you rediscover your strength and well-being, wherever you are in Minnesota.

Approach

Online sessions focus on translating insight into manageable steps—gentle, focused work that reduces anxiety and eases perfectionistic urges. I conduct sessions in English from Minneapolis, using secure video so you can engage from wherever in Minnesota with steady pacing and clear, practical check-ins. We use brief experiments, skill-building between sessions, and values-based choices to shift stuck patterns while respecting your rhythm. This way of working tends to suit women ready for steady, realistic change without overwhelm.
