About Claire

Location: St. Paul, Telehealth and/or In-Person
Pronouns: She/Her

As a clinician, I strive to develop a safe, supportive, and warm environment in which every client feels comfortable to be authentically themselves in the therapy setting. I operate from a “come as you are” philosophy in which all are welcome in my space. I believe in a collaborative counseling space in which the client and counselor work together toward developing treatment plans and achieving therapeutic goals. I use an integrative therapy approach drawing inspiration from person-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) orientations.

I see adolescents (13+), young adults, and adults at the University location. I have a particular clinical interest in supporting individuals from/with LGBTQIA+, neurodiversity, college/university, and social anxiety client populations. I am also a part of the DBT team at Natalis in which I see clients individually and co-lead a DBT group on site.

I obtained my masters degree in 2023 from the University of Minnesota in their Counselor Education program. I am currently pursuing licensure and working under the license of my supervisor, Hans Erickson, MSEd, LPCC.

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my two cats, pursuing creative projects like painting and photography, watching live theater, hiking, and being outdoors.
