Meet Therin

I strive to, above all else, truly listen and understand you. I want to help you move toward what is authentic for you while honoring your unique identities, social contexts, ways of being, and histories.

Originally from the Great Plains, I understand how complicated it can be to navigate being yourself in a world that prefers the straight and narrow. Although I sought out a clinical psychology doctorate to ensure the best possible education in mental health care, the cornerstone of my work is accurate and genuine empathy. You are the expert on yourself, your life experiences, and your values.

Compassion, creativity, exploration, experimentation and genuine, transparent conversations are the foundations of my approach to therapy. I focus on building honest, comfortable, and empowering relationships to bring about the changes you’d like to see.  In all my work, I strive for down-to-earth interactions and center your empowerment, safety, sincerity, and values.

I believe that, deep down, we often know what we need to create fulfillment in our lives. But sometimes it’s difficult to hear ourselves over the stress of daily life. I also believe that we cannot do life alone. Interdependence and connection are vital parts of being human, and healing is frequently easier when we do it with others.

Together, we can gain clarity about what really matters to us, shed restrictive expectations about what gives us worth, and work to shape our day-to-day so it brings ease, meaning, and nourishment – even amidst life’s uncertainty, pain and struggle.
