When your health changes, your whole world shifts.
You don’t have to carry the weight alone.
I believe you are greater than the challenges life puts in front of you. But when a chronic condition, a major diagnosis, or a medical crisis takes away the life you knew—and didn’t choose—it can feel disorienting, exhausting, and unfair. It makes complete sense if you’re struggling to adjust to this new reality.
My role isn’t to “fix” you or your body, but to help you make room for the grief and stress, get unstuck from the overwhelm, and reconnect with who you are outside of your symptoms. Together, we’ll work on moving forward in a way that actually feels like you.
I offer online therapy for individuals and couples in Minnesota who are navigating big life changes and stress:
A new diagnosis of a chronic medical condition
A serious health concern for you or someone you love
Pregnancy or the transition into parenthood (especially while managing a chronic illness)
The loss of, or shift in, an important relationship
Conflict within a relationship (including adult children navigating relationships with parents)
Transitions into a new phase of life
In addition to counseling, I am a Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist. Because I live with diabetes myself, I understand the unique mental and physical toll it takes.
I offer a specialized, integrated approach that combines evidence-based therapy with expert diabetes education for people living with type 1, type 2, prediabetes, or gestational diabetes. You are greater than your numbers, and you are greater than any diagnosis you carry.
How I can help
Individual Counseling
Tailored therapy to help you process the grief, anxiety, and daily burnout of living with a chronic condition or navigating a major life transition. Together, we’ll build a practical path forward so you can feel like yourself again.
Couples and Family Counseling
Chronic illness and high-stress life changes don’t just affect you, they impact your relationships. I help couples and families navigate communication blocks, medical stress, and identity shifts so you can reconnect and support each other as a team.
Group Counseling
The Blue Circle provides structured group sessions offer a safe, supportive space to share your lived experiences, combat isolation, and learn collective coping strategies for living with diabetes. Use the contact form to inquire about our next start date.
Speaking and Training
I provide engaging, insightful presentations and workshops for medical professionals, organizations, and community groups that support people with diabetes. By bridging the gap between mental health and medical care, I help audiences understand the true psychological impact of diabetes.
Let’s take the first step together.
You’ve been carrying this weight on your own for long enough. Whether you are ready to get started or just have a few questions about how we can work together, I’d love to connect.
