Serving South Dakota and New York
Online therapy allows you to meet with me privately from your home or another comfortable, confidential setting while receiving the same individualized care as an in-person session.
I offer secure, HIPAA-compliant online therapy sessions for clients located in South Dakota and New York. If you are a current client and would like to transition to online therapy, or if you are considering working with me for the first time, please contact me to learn more or schedule an appointment.
I work with adults, couples, and interpersonal therapy groups, with treatment tailored to each person’s concerns, history, relationships, and goals. While my practice specializes in sexual health, trauma, and relationships, these concerns rarely occur in isolation.

Depression
Anxiety Disorders
Mood Regulation
Self-Esteem
Grieving
Anger Management
Life Transition

Licensed in South Dakota and New York
I provide psychotherapy to clients located in South Dakota and New York, where I am independently licensed to practice. In-person services are available at my Sioux Falls office, and online therapy allows me to work with clients throughout both states.
Expanding Access Through the Counseling Compact
South Dakota is also a member of the Counseling Compact, a national interstate agreement designed to make it easier for independently licensed professional counselors to practice across participating states.
The Compact does not create a single license that automatically allows a counselor to practice in every member state. Instead, eligible counselors whose primary state of residence is a participating home state may apply for a Privilege to Practice in other Compact states as those states become operational.
The Counseling Compact has now been enacted in 40 jurisdictions, including South Dakota. Implementation is occurring state by state, however, South Dakota is not yet issuing Compact privileges. As additional states—including South Dakota—complete the requirements necessary to participate, the Compact may allow me to expand online therapy services into additional states without obtaining a separate full professional license in each jurisdiction.
For clients, the continued implementation of the Counseling Compact has the potential to improve access to specialized mental health care and make continuity of treatment easier when either a client or clinician travels or relocates. Until those privileges become available, I provide psychotherapy only where I currently hold the appropriate authorization to practice.
