When asked “What is my ideal client”? My response will always be you! I have an innate passion for people and feel that one’s healing journey should be customized to suit their individual need(s). I take a strength-based person-centered approach to help each client begin to identify/build upon their abilities to overcome obstacles at every stage of life. Upon working together, we will focus on healing holistically, integrating techniques suited for the whole person aligning spirit, mind, body, soul, and goals.

I believe that therapy can be beneficial to most people during this journey we call life. There are various obstacles and challenges that can make it difficult, and at times very overwhelming for us to deal with. You are not alone! Many individuals that I have worked with over the years find it comforting to be able to confide in someone kind, empathetic, and objective; who can work collaboratively toward their goals. You are an expert in your life, so it's important to note that therapy is a collaborative experience where we work toward your identified goals.

My approach to therapy is rooted in understanding, compassion, and evidence-based techniques. Being with me feels relaxed, approachable, and genuine, much like a comforting chat over coffee. I firmly believe that therapy is a collaborative journey where the therapist and client work hand in hand to navigate challenges and seek growth. My style is both empathetic and proactive, aiming to help individuals reframe unhelpful thought patterns and build effective coping mechanisms.

Each person has a unique life experience; the challenges they face and strengths they draw from are wholly their own. My aim as a therapist is to help clients see things from a new perspective, and tap into their strengths and resilience to meet their goals. I see each client as a person, rather than a diagnosis, and try to meet them where they are at in life’s journey. Together, we collaborate to form a person-centered treatment plan that reflects the client’s needs and goals.

When it comes to therapy, I engage each person, focusing on their uniqueness and the reason they are seeking therapy. I applaud everyone that has made the decision to be proactive regarding their mental health and to put forth the effort to address circumstances, either past or present, that have caused disruptions and undesired outcomes in their lives. I would like to support you in any way I can to produce positive outcomes in the most ethical, professional, and compassion filled way possible.

My counseling goals are to facilitate self-awareness, self-acceptance, and responsibility for one's own actions and growth, as I believe this leads to empowerment, healing, and wellness. Encompassed in the idea of growth is interacting successfully with others. Respect is the underpinning of the counselor's relationship with the client and inherent in the counseling techniques I use. Techniques employed in my practice include: establishing open communication, behavioral and cognitive behavioral techniques, and psycho-educational techniques involving social skills and occasionally career development.

When faced with difficult challenges our emotional, physical, and mental health is impacted. The impacts of life transitions, past traumas, and stress can show up in our lives as anger, depression, anxiety, behavioral concerns, and relationship issues. Therapy can be helpful to individuals by allowing space to learn to identify emotions as well as learn tools to manage symptoms. If you're struggling to manage unhelpful thoughts or behaviors centering around anxiety, body image, depression, life changes, self-esteem, self-harm, and stress management I would urge you to consider therapy.

People are sometimes challenged by turbulent emotions, transitions, losses or chronic mood issues. The day to day experience of emotional distress or an underlying sense of uneasiness affect vitality and are difficult to endure over time. Verbal dialogue within a relationship designed for you to freely express yourself, explore feelings and discover unconscious factors impacting you describes the change process of psychotherapy. I have seen many individuals over the years not only have symptom relief but find new paths while shedding patterns of disabling emotions, thoughts and behavior.

Collaborating with adolescents, adults, and families to work toward improving mental health and general wellbeing is of great importance. While transparency is encouraged, building a strong therapeutic relationship takes time and is crucial for successful treatment. Regarding barriers, it is essential to meet individuals where they're at to avoid setting unrealistic expectations.

I am passionate about helping women, & adolescents who are going through the hardships life can bring us. Living in today's society brings challenges that can feel suffocating on top of daily life tasks and hardships. Avoiding painful areas of our lives can lead to addictions to cover up those feelings, however dulling the pain with harmful addictive behaviors can further add hurt to ourselves and the ones around us. We each have strengths and assets, instead of avoiding the challenging areas, I encourage clients to engage in personal growth and exploration, to dig in and discover the areas they can evolve and grow.

If you are experiencing high anxiety, or just not feeling like yourself or maybe you can't even label the uncomfortable feelings, you're not alone. You know you want to get rid of those feelings but talking to friends, aimlessly scrolling social media, ignoring it or maybe even using substances haven't been quite effective.

I earned my B.S. in Psychology in 2005 and M.A. in Professional Counseling in 2008 from Central Michigan University.

I work to create a nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space for all to work on their desired goals.

I have been in private clinical practice for 22 years. I have specifically trained to work with children, adolescents, young adults and older adults. My time is spent fairly equally working with mental health and substance abuse issues. Likewise, I have chosen to not focus on one specific age group, finding it to be more satisfying to see various aged people. I spend the most time with young adults, from ages of 16-26. I enjoy working with couples; though challenging, I can often offer a safe place for them to listen to one another.

I believe that everyone needs some extra support at times. My goal as a therapist is to work collaboratively with clients to help them find their way through life’s challenges. I focus on encouraging the client as the expert on their own life.
