Embracing Change Counseling

There is a piece of ground in eastern South Dakota that is slowly becoming something I've been dreaming about for a long time.

A new offering:

Something I've believed for a long time: the mental health crisis in agriculture won't be solved by outsiders talking at farmers. It starts with a farmer saying, "I've been there" - and a clinician saying, "That has a name, and you're not alone." That's exactly what this partnership is. I'm thrilled...

May is a great time to remember that many people are fighting battles that others do not see. Show up, show your support, and show kindness — during mental health awareness month and every month after. 💗

Mother's Day has passed, but for many, the feelings linger a little longer. 💐

For some it was full of joy and celebration. For others it was one of the hardest days of the year.

If you carried grief this weekend — for a mom you've lost, a relationship that's complicated, a longing unfulfilled — that weight doesn't just lift when the calendar turns. You don't have to be "over it" by Monday. Be gentle with yourself this week.

Studies show that 20 minutes in nature measurably lowers cortisol. Not scrolling nature photos — being in it. Outside. Unscheduled. Unhurried.

This is one of the most accessible mental health interventions there is, yet most of us walk past it every day.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, I encourage you to spend intentional time in nature and give back to your body. There’s not much that beats breathing fresh air in the peaceful, great outdoors! 🌲

Spring is officially here and so is Mental Health Awareness Month. Throughout May (and every month), I encourage you to engage in conversations about mental health, let friends know you are there for them, and reflect on your own mental wellbeing. 🌸

“Your mental health is everything. Prioritize it. Make the time like your life depends on it — because it does.”

Therapy can offer you and your family real support when working through the stress and anxieties that come with the farming profession.

If you’re ready to seek out that support, give me a call. I work with farm families across the Dakotas. You don't have to explain the culture to me — I grew up in it.
