COMPREHENSIVE HOME STUDIES

I am an experienced Masters-level licensed social worker who will complete comprehensive and expert home studies and custody studies in an efficient and respectful manner through my company, Comprehensive Home Studies.

Serving communities throughout South Dakota, I offer efficient and well-managed studies that are well-written and easy to understand.

I am willing and able to complete post-adoption home visits, testify in court and provide home study updates.

I attained my bachelor’s degree from Augustana College with a major in Social Work and Psychology. Later, I obtained a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Minnesota.

With more than 20 years’ experience working with children and families, I have child protection experience in Minnesota, extensive experience as a therapist, and a foster parent trainer, and completing home studies at Children’s Home Society in Sioux Falls, SD.

I have vast experience with professional writing and have effectively testified in court on multiple occasions over the past two decades.

I am licensed (#2115) with the South Dakota Board of Social Workers at the CSW level. Additionally, I am a board member of the South Dakota Child Protection Council and a grief counselor with “Sad Isn’t Bad,” a United Way program.
