Therapy is a space that allows you to identify what is getting in your way and learn how to move towards where you want to be. I focus on helping you build insight around your experiences so you can identify what changes can be made as well as what skill building can be done to create the outcomes you are looking for. I work with people who have symptoms from anxiety, depression, trauma or addiction by using a person centered approach that both validates your experience and supports you in the change you are working towards.
I am offering reduced rates to MSU students, I offer short term, long term and crisis counseling to MSU students. I can work with any students that are Michigan residents and I will do all sessions via teletherapy. The first step is always the most difficult. It takes courage to recognize the need for help, make the phone call and attend your first appointment. My initial goal of therapy is to establish trust with my patients. I accept them for who they are without judgement or bias, seek to understand them and move at their pace. I practice with a wide range of psychotherapy modalities and adjust my style and techniques based on your individual need. It is my goal to help you overcome your struggles and flourish. Therapy is not a quick fix, it takes time, effort and determination and I will be there supporting you during your journey. I provide treatment to those struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, eating disorders/obesity, self-esteem struggles, stress, family issues, and spirituality. I help my patients become aware of past patterns of behavior, thought processes and emotions that will have a lasting impact on the changes they make in their lives. These changes can affect many area’s in life including increased confidence, self-esteem, positive interpersonal relationships, and lasting change. I am a fully licenced Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience.
Deciding to try therapy for the first time or restarting with a new therapist can be challenging and intimidating. We will go at your pace and comfort level especially at the beginning of the counseling relationship. To feel comfortable sharing personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences even to a licensed therapist can take time. We want to provide that space to build trust in order to see real change and growth in your life.
I can help you navigate concerns with drug and alcohol addictions. I can also help with anxiety.

We all have a way of maintaining safety in relationships and making the world "work." However, from time to time, we realize that these strategies may or may not be leading us to the life we've wanted. I greatly enjoy working with women experiencing anxiety and relationship difficulties - often manifesting as high achievement and/or perfectionism. Many of my current clients are in the helping professions - mental health, medicine, faith-based ministry. Together, we begin to explore interpersonal patterns and tendencies as well as core beliefs and narratives, with the goal of creating a new story. Please see my Psychology Today profile for additional info.
I have 15+ years of experience in counseling youth, adults and the elderly in areas of Crisis Intervention, Medical Social Work, Child Welfare services and Family Dynamics. Regardless of where you are in your journey in life, I believe it's never too early or late to course-correct. I operate with core values of humility and integrity, providing a therapeutic environment that cultivates trust and respect. I'm happy to guide you through life's challenges with the attention and care you deserve.

One of my passions about my role as a therapist is to normalize therapy, why else would I do this! I think that this is something that my clients can bring away from their sessions. (Que cliche sunshine and rainbows that can be very real when you choose therapy, a very big and hard step). Everyone needs a little support every now and then, but sometimes, events happen that make you feel like you need a little more support, or college feels a little more overwhelming that you expected. I get it, because I've been there. Trauma and negative thinking patterns are treatable and can be managed and I often find that with the use of EMDR and other techniques that I engage in, my clients often feel much better. I work with individuals to manage significant life stressors or traumatic events or histories that continue to impact or trigger you and decide to pop up and cause trouble in unexpected moments. I also work with pregnancy and postpartum concerns!
I believe life is a process. Many things occur during this process. The challenge is our perspective and how we chose to look at life. There are times when the lenses through which we use to view life are clouded, but with the proper adjustments our vision can be much clearer. My goal is not to change you but to help facilitate the change that you desire. For some, this may take a few sessions and for others it may take longer. I am willing to get down in the trenches with you and bring you to the place where you desire to be. I am dedicated to bringing out the best in you.

Prior to Covid-19 I began working with telehealth and moved towards seeing everyone from their own home to remove the barrier of the commute. Additionally I see people living in rural areas for specific needs such as gender dysphoria. My experience includes addressing trauma/PTSD, substance use/abuse and recovery, anxiety, depression, transgender and gender dysphoria, and LGBTQ+ issues for adolescents and adults as an ally. You can easily request and schedule our first appointment or phone consultation by reaching out today - preferably by email.
