My Passions
I am passionate about increasing clients’ capacities for living fully and performing optimally, maximizing creativity in the pursuit of excellence, and cultivating trusted, loving relationships. I draw heavily from neuroscience and physiology in my approach to emotion regulation, attention/focus mastery, and execution of peak performance behaviors. I am also an expert in narrative/identity work and love supporting clients in harnessing the power of their performance stories. This work is game-changing from the inside out and yields long-term growth and positive change.
I have a sweet spot for working with high performers and highly sensitive people (HSP). This group includes professionals juggling multiple life roles, medical providers, mental health providers, business leaders, legal professionals, educators, athletes, and parents striving to show up their best with their families and in life.
I am highly attuned to the neurodiverse brain and the unique challenges that come with living with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), sensory processing issues, and other executive functioning challenges. I'm fiercely committed to helping my clients unlock their personal superpowers associated with neurodiversity.

I earned a doctorate in counseling psychology from the University of Minnesota in 2008 and a master's degree in counseling from the University of Minnesota in 2002. My doctoral training included an American Psychological Association (APA) accredited predoctoral internship at the University of Southern California and a postdoctoral fellowship at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, CA. In 1999, I completed bachelor's degrees in Psychology, Women's Studies, and German at St. Olaf College.
My professional background includes 24 years of clinical, teaching, and research experience. I have served adults and adolescents, providing psychological services for personal, career, health, and athletic realms. I have worked in a variety of settings including the Veterans' Affairs Medical Center in Minneapolis, university counseling centers, university student services and alumni relationships, community medical and mental health centers, The Emily Program, a world-renowned eating disorder treatment center, and private practices. I have also taught undergraduate and graduate psychology courses at universities and a local community college. In January 2015, I opened the doors of my private practice where I provide individual therapy, coaching, consultation, classes and workshops. I also train and speak at organizations around the U.S.A.
