Online in Minnesota
(Online Only)
I have over 10 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate mental health; and have been in private practice for 5 years as Gossamer Psychotherapy, LLC. I want to help you access the fulfilling life you desire and aim to address your specific issues. Together we will find value, meaning, and purpose in your life; and collaborate toward building a strong inner ally aligned with your best interest.
It is no mystery that we experience anxiety, depression, worry, feel stuck, struggle with relationships, and are burdened by life. As such, mental wellness does not have to be a mystery either. Maybe you struggle with decision making and doing what is best for you. Perhaps you find it hard to know what you want in life, and just keep living life like there are no problems which perpetuates your unease and sense of distress. Maybe you feel overwhelmed by negative emotions, and that hinders your ability to be honest with yourself and the people in your life or appropriately express your needs.
Email me, and I will help you change your life in a way that restores peace within you, honors your sovereignty, and helps you contribute your best to society. After all, empowered, balanced individuals are the foundation of strong families and communities- and I want to help you access the fulfilling life you desire.

Treatment Approach
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Integrative Therapy Combines techniques from multiple approaches into a customized plan. It adapts to each client’s unique situation and needs.
- Jungian Therapy Draws on Carl Jung’s ideas about archetypes, dreams, and the collective unconscious. It helps people explore deeper layers of meaning.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Psychoanalytic Therapy Based on Freud’s theories, it explores unconscious conflicts and past experiences. It seeks to bring hidden issues into awareness.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
- Psychoeducational Therapy Provides education and coping tools about mental health conditions. It empowers clients with knowledge and practical skills.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: I strive to bring a unique therapy tailored to each individual. I am drawn to Existential and other depth approaches to mental health & wellness because they incorporate cognitive, spiritual, Jungian, developmental, psychodynamic, and cultural psychology as well as others. I believe it is in all of our best interests to embrace sovereignty and honor the state of becoming each of us is in.
Treatment is meant to validate and honor your emotional state; make you more aware of your actions, and deepen your understanding of yourself. The sources of your symptoms will be thoroughly explored, thus revealing from within the individual how best to rejuvenate life.
