Hi! I’m Neil and I want to be your new therapist. I’m currently accepting new clients aged 18+ up for virtual sessions. My background is in Social Work where I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Michigan. While there, I was a HRSA Scholar in which I received specialized training in integrated healthcare. I have previous experience working in acute care at a partial hospitalization setting in which I was exposed to a variety of diagnoses and mental health concerns, working with all ages. Currently I work as an outpatient therapist focused more on long term growth for the populations I work with.

Do you feel alone, misunderstood, damaged, insecure, or hurt? Do you desire a safe and brave space to be heard and to confront the internal conflict you feel inside? Do you just need someone to listen to you? This is the place for you. You belong here. Take off the mask, and take the first step of your journey! Here are some common reasons people contact me: Depression, General and Social Anxiety, Childhood Trauma, Unhealthy Relationship with Self, Grief (due to divorce, recent breakup, empty nester, death of a loved one). Special focus on high school aged teenage girls and women of color.

Immediate openings! I am a passionate therapist specializing in eating disorders for children, teens and young adults and a member of International Eating Disorder Association. Are you feeling unheard or alone? We all have different stories to tell, while these stories may be beautiful in each and every way. There may be bumps in the road where people need a helping hand to assist in guiding your way through the deep and sometimes dark treacherous road called life. I want to be that helping hand that walks alongside you throughout your journey providing skills and an individual treatment plan to reach YOUR life worth living.

As a behaviorist, I believe that the environments in which we develop ultimately play the most significant role in our actions, decisions, and outcomes. Without the proper space for growth, healing, and self-development, one may face difficulties in achieving self-realization and self-actualization. Human-beings are social creatures – genetically designed, behaviorally conditioned, and evolutionarily driven. We possess certain intrinsic, natural needs and adaptations that have developed over millions of years. If these dualistically basic and complex needs remain unfulfilled, we will struggle to attain this self-actualization.

I enjoy working with clients on healing childhood trauma, processing and integrating past experiences, boundaries, communication, learning to trust yourself and honor your needs, quieting the inner critic, and finding ways to tap into joy and play again. I proudly offer services that honor the needs and experiences of individuals of all gender and sexual identities, race and ethnicities, abilities, and lifestyles including the kink, sex work, and ENM/polyamory communities.

Have recent life changes left you feeling anxious and overwhelmed? Whether you are struggling with the demands of adulthood, a fallout with a sibling, grief/loss, or other life transition, I get that you want to feel more calm and grounded. Through therapy with me, you can get back to feeling like your old self again, or even better!

Welcoming couples clients! Relationship problems are common, and you have taken a courageous step by seeking therapy. As one of the few psychologists specializing in couple therapy, I've supported hundreds of couples by providing effective, evidence-based treatments that scientific research has shown to bring significant and lasting improvement. My own research on relationships has been published in peer-reviewed journals, and featured here in Psychology Today, international media outlets such as Business Insider Germany, and New York Times Best Seller Atlas of the Heart by Brené Brown.

Throughout our lifetime we encounter various challenges and transitions, and I believe these experiences hold opportunity for transformation. I believe that each person's journey is unique, and I strive to help people achieve their highest potential for fulfillment and wellbeing by facilitating insight and understanding about the impact their experiences have on their life. My goal is to provide a compassionate, trusting, and nurturing therapeutic environment where you feel safe engaging in self-discovery and problem solving.

Feeling stuck or looking for something different? I offer in office traditional therapy sessions in a peaceful, private, country setting, focusing on CBT, DBT, and soultion focused methods. I also offer Equine Assisted Psychotherapy and Learning opportunities for individuals and groups. I specialize in helping people identify their strengths and unhelpful thought patterns to find solutions to their problems. Equine assisted work is a great option for people not interested in traditional therapy and others who have not been "successful" in other therapy settings. In addition to psychotherapy, we offer several group opportunities for children, adolescents, and adults.

I am currently accepting new clients! Children and adolescents often develop challenging behaviors as a way of expressing their inner thoughts and feelings that they don't have the words to explain. I help give youth a voice through creating a trusting environment where they feel safe to explore emotions, share thoughts, and develop solutions. I use unique interventions tailored to your child's strengths in order to foster a space where they feel supported and motivated to change.

Motherhood just got a lot harder during this unprecedented time of crisis. Anxiety looms as we sit with the uncertainty about when COVID-19 limitations will end. If you are pregnant or just had a baby there is an extra layer of concern about what you can do during your precious postpartum time. If you are managing schooling at home, or have a child with high needs, you're probably feeling burnt out. Taking care of yourself through talk-therapy can help you ride out this turbulent time.

I have worked extensively with adolescents and young adults who are struggling with school-based behavioral and academic problems. My work has included working with adolescents and young adults who are on the spectrum, gifted students, those who struggle socially and academically, and students who have experienced trauma or upheaval in their family.

My practice spans working with individuals, couples and families, as well as teaching courses in Family Systems, Relationship Conflicts and Parenting. I am specialized in family and marital therapy, managing anxiety and depression, chemical dependency and addictions. I also provide supervision to clinicians to benefit their practice of psychotherapy.
