Business Owner

I received a BA degree in psychology from Hamline University and took many summer courses at Macalester College. My graduate program was to be a blending of psychiatry and psychology. The program was designed by a group leaving the Mayo Clinic to start their own treatment and training services.

This resulted in a Master of Arts degree in Counseling and Psychotherapy from Antioch College and a two year Certificate of Training in Adolescent Counseling and Psychotherapy from the Cook Institute.
