From a young age, I’ve always enjoyed helping others and working with kiddos. I strongly prioritize being an advocate for mental health related services and having open conversation about the things that may be too hard for us to carry on our own. I strive to create an environment in which each person feels welcomed, heard, and supported upon entering my office. 

I graduated from the University of Mary in April of 2023 with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and certification in Catholic Anthropology. Over the course of my schooling, I worked with children with behavioral and/or mental health related disorders across the state of North Dakota. I also hope to continue advocating for the children within the foster care system and providing each child with a comfortable space to be themselves.  

Kealie brings warmth and creativity to her sessions by utilizing a combination of Play Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Sand Tray Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), and Narrative Therapy. Kealie specializes in working with children, adolescents, adults, and families through PCIT, providing a nurturing environment for growth and healing.
