I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a full-time practice at Psych Recovery, Inc., in St. Paul, MN. I have almost 20 years’ experience with people with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders, and have focused my practice to primarily serve people with these illnesses.
My interest in working with people with these illnesses began in 1993, when I did an undergraduate internship at Anoka-Metro Regional Treatment Center. Since then, I have worked in a variety of mental health clinics, treatment centers, group homes, and other residential facilities. Currently I provide outpatient individual and group therapy as well as consultations for providers.
