Welcome! I’m Valerie, and I believe that healing begins when you feel truly seen, heard, and valued. My therapeutic approach is person-centered, focusing entirely on your unique strengths, resilience, and inherent capacity for growth. Holding a Bachelor’s degree in Creative Writing, I am currently completing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Capella University, where I specialize in working with children and adolescents. I am passionate about creating a safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where people can find their voices, process emotions, and build the tools they need to thrive.

 

When I am not working with clients or focusing on my studies, I find my own balance through nature and family. I love spending my free time exploring local hiking trails or simply recharging at home with my daughter and our cats. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, I am here to help you uncover your strengths and move forward with confidence.
