I greatly enjoy my current role working as a mental health professional. I practice in the outpatient setting both in person and virtually. I work with children, youth, and families with a variety of diagnoses. I have the most experience working with individuals impacted by trauma, and I am trained in EMDR. I have experience professionally working with individuals and families who have experienced adoption and foster care, and I also have personal connections to adoption as my sister is an adult adoptee.

Hi! I am Teresa, a clinical social worker who is passionate about supporting adoptees, first/birth families and adoptive families. I am an adoptive parent with extensive experience supporting my child through relational trauma, transitions, neurodevelopment differences and sensory. I also have a long professional history of supporting family reunification, birth parent rights, open permanency set ups and culturally appropriate permanency outcomes.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Working in ND and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in MN, practicing on the border of ND/MN. I spent the first decade of my social work career in the child welfare world, as a child protection worker and case manager. The work I was a part of in the child welfare world has impacted my work as a clinical social worker. I work with children (5+) and adults from various walks of life experiencing mental health concerns for a variety of reasons, adoption and foster care included.
I have worked in the social service system for over 25 years with children and families prior to becoming a licensed clinical counselor. I am very familiar with the child protection and court system. I have attended trainings with the MN Pride Network for LGBTQ population. I have worked with adults and children on the autism spectrum. I spent 10 years working with children and birth, adoptive and foster families in the child protection system.
I have worked with children, teens, adults, couples, and families for six years. I specialize in working with trauma, adoption, reunification therapy, depression, anxiety, and chemical dependency. In addition to the PACC training, I have been trained in EMDR therapy.
