Guiding Light Counseling and Consulting PLLC

I have the privilege of supporting individuals and couples facing a range of challenges: depression, traumatic experiences, life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, burnout/resilience, and relationship strain, to name a few. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and believe in a holistic approach to counseling. My experience in community mental health (residential, outpatient, and intensive outpatient), primary care, and EAP counseling give me a unique insight into how health conditions affect all areas of life. I use evidence-based approaches to help my clients attain their goals. I take an inviting approach to counseling, and collaborate with my clients in their healing. I truly believe people to be resilient, and know that we all get “stuck” sometimes. My goal is to work with my clients to identify their strengths and resources to get “unstuck” and move toward thriving in their lives.

I am now licensed in Minnesota, so residents of North Dakota and Minnesota are able to access telehealth care with me.
