Hi, I’m Isabel.

I bring a holistic and compassionate approach by drawing upon my diverse experiences and comprehensive understanding of human behavior, specifically in rural Minnesota. I employ evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address the unique needs and concerns of my clients. Together, we can create a warm, nonjudgmental space where my you feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore your thoughts and emotions freely.

As a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (LAMFT) dedicated to serving individuals (8 years old and up) in rural Minnesota, I am particularly interested in supporting those who navigate multiple identities that challenge the prevailing norms of our community. My clinical focus is on creating a safe and affirming space for clients to explore their unique experiences, addressing the complexities of identity, culture, and belonging in a context that often feels restrictive. I aim to empower individuals by validating their diverse backgrounds and fostering resilience, while also providing tools to cope with the unique stressors they face in rural settings. By integrating culturally sensitive approaches, I strive to promote healing and growth, helping clients embrace their authentic selves and cultivate meaningful connections.

I believe you, as my client, are the expert on your life, so a typical appointment will look like a charismatic conversation amongst friends. You get to choose what to share and when to share it. We will work together to find a balance that acknowledges the impact systems have on the world we live in as well as prioritizing feeling safe, heard, and understood in each appointment. My job in the appointment is to bring my expertise. I tend to lean into a somatic approach bringing together elements of IFS, narrative therapy, as well as systems work into each appointment.

I enjoy time outside, binge watching the newest Netflix series, listening to all sorts of music, and spending time within my community. My absolute favorite way to spend my time is with my chosen family including my dog, Millie!
