In Person

I am licensed in Michigan with 10 years of professional work experience. I obtained a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Phoenix. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety & depression. I am passionate about learning, listening and bringing balance and wellness to the lives of my clients. As a therapist, my aim is to help you better understand your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, what they mean and how they relate to your present day struggles and challenges. My role is to guide you as you take steps toward positive life changes, healing and a healthy mind. Together we will work to uncover and better understand the life challenges and day to day stressors that detract from your life and focus, by identifying and practicing coping skills that will make you stronger. You have made an important choice for your self-starting the process of exploring what brings you distress and wanting relief. We all have benefit from having someone to share our feelings with and help us make sense of the stresses we face. The treatment approaches that I use are evidence based treatments such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength Based Solution Focused Therapy, and Client Centered Therapy. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
