I’m a Licensed Psychologist in Minnesota and the owner of Fish Psychotherapy & Consulting, LLC. I offer compassionate and individualized care that is tailored to your values and needs to help you meet your mental health goals.

Understanding a person’s cultural and historical background, along with their strengths and personal experiences, allows me to offer clients therapy that is culturally meaningful to them. While I’m trained in evidence-based psychotherapies (e.g., Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy), I understand that there is more than one pathway to healing. I aim to integrate healing practices from a person’s cultural background with the best available scientific knowledge to promote healing and well-being. I approach this task with great sensitivity and flexibility, finding creative ways to incorporate the rich cultural and historical contexts from people’s intersecting identities into psychotherapy, which often entails creating new therapy spaces and modifying existing ones. An example of my therapy work can be seen in Walking in Two Worlds, a psychotherapy group I created through a partnership with student support offices at the University of Minnesota. Although I have a wide range of clinical experiences, I gravitate towards clinical work serving communities that have been marginalized in society. I find it particularly rewarding to help people heal from trauma in all its forms (i.e., historical, racial, lifetime, developmental trauma). I completed my predoctoral internship at Hennepin County Medical Center and my postdoctoral fellowship at the Center for Care Delivery and Outcomes Research at the Minneapolis VAHCS.
