My Idea of Care

My approach to psychotherapy is cognitive behavioral – believing that making adjustments in thinking and action can lead to improved mood and life satisfaction. Although I do help people reflect on how the past may influence the present, my primary goal is to focus on the present and solve problems that are immediate and meaningful to the people I see.

Personal Interests

My clinical interests are quite varied. After graduating from UND, I worked in a rural Kansas community for 11 years before joining the Sanford team. Although my primary duties now include working with adults, I also have an interest in family therapy with adolescents. In addition to my general interest in the treatment of depression and anxiety, I enjoy integrating spiritual needs into treatment, as well as working with patients with chronic pain management issues.
