I have been a counselor for over 35 years and am honored to have been able to assist others during periods of personal growth and challenge. As a strength-based clinician, I foster resilience, courage, and fortitude within clients. I believe life entails a vast continuum of experiences – some joyful and others difficult. I am here for support as you traverse your life experiences.
I use a plethora of tools to assist clients. These interventions include dialectical behavioral techniques, cognitive-behavioral interventions, and mindfulness activities. I help clients integrate past traumatic experiences as well as learn skills to decrease depression and anxiety, increase self-confidence, and grow personally.
I enjoy supporting others and look forward to the opportunity to assist you!

Dr. Tormoen is a good listen as demonstrated by her summaries or our sessions. Part of understanding this therapy for me is that she is affirming what is happening as being a part of a process that is normal and give you thoughts and tools to work through some of it.

I have been with Dr. tormoen for over a month now dealing with a family loss and massive life changes. I have had a few therapists before but she takes the cake absolutely! I appreciate a doctor that listens but also gives input at the right moment and she has mastered this. She is very communicative and also sends worksheets and reflections from our sessions. I feel extremely supported and like I have been given new tools each week to work forward in my life. Extremely grateful for her care.

I've only had 3 sessions so for with Dr. Tormoen, but I feel comfortable with her. I'm not to sure how I feel about the video sessios, I know I would much rather prefer to be in person for my sessions. But overall very useful. I especially like the journal. Being able to write what I'm feeling at any moment.
