I keep it real and relevant. You want your relationship to be better? So do I. Let's work together to make it happen.

I enjoy seeing clients who feel motivated to make changes in their lives, even if they don't know how or where to begin. Working through grief and loss, dealing with anxiety and depression, struggling with employment issues or academic concerns, and so many other parts of life can feel overwhelming and impossible. Motivation for positive, meaningful changes in life is the first step towards making those changes a reality. Let's work together to take those next few steps, and create a structure for positive growth in the future!

I value every encounter with an individual. I am grateful to be in a field, as a Therapist, where I can enjoy divine connections daily - thanks to the incredible courage of people. Specifically, thanks to a “yes” to the journey of growth, healing, and one's readiness to get "unstuck." Although I believe that the therapy office is a place where much of an individual’s healing and recovery from life challenges takes place, I also understand that the real tests happen outside of those four walls. I want to help you to prepare for those tests, cope, build healthy relationships, and affirm yourself in the positive.

Do you feel stuck having the same arguments where you know how things will end before it begins? Everyone experiences periods of difficulties as life changes and turns in unexpected directions. Whatever difficulties you are facing, you do not need to face them alone. As a marriage and family therapist, I will provide you and your family the tools needed to navigate life’s challenges in a safe, warm and understanding environment. Seeking help is not always easy although it can be rewarding.

I am a licensed Clinical Therapist in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I have been in the field for over 10 years. I practice Solution Focused Therapy using Person Centered approach. My goal is not to change you but to help facilitate the change that you desire.

Hello! My role as a therapist is to provide you with a non-judgmental, safe environment, that allows for personal growth. I believe that having a happy, healthy, fulfilling life is not only related to physical health, but is strongly intertwined with mental health as well. I acknowledge that every person is unique in their needs, as well as what is needed from a counseling relationship and adapt to your needs.

If your life has been disrupted by anxiety, anger, depression, an addiction or the crisis of a divorce/break-up, job loss, financial difficulty or parenting challenge, know that you are not alone and that counseling can help you - heal; conquer any type of challenge; establish a workable life plan; repair relationships; renew your faith; and restore your emotional health. If your child is struggling with a behavior problem, ADHD, a learning difficulty or worrisome levels of stress and anxiety, counseling can help them gain self-control, alter disruptive behavior, use effective coping skills and restore their self-confidence.

My goal is to be able to walk along side of the individuals and families, and to help navigate the desired destination of the client. I trust that this will happen by making sure that there is communication and expectations that are attainable and desirable for all involved parties. I use multiple approaches to accomplish this.

You deserve to live a life that leaves you excited to wake up every morning. I believe one of the bravest things you can do to achieve that is to understand your own story. Life is too short for our lives to be consumed by bad relationships, holding grudges, and letting trauma take over our lives. You deserve to be free from emotional pain as well as finding your purpose and meaning in your life. I will walk right next to you to help lift heavy weights and burdens from your shoulders. You do not have to walk this journey alone.

Do you have questions and no answers? Feeling uncertain about what to do next? Do you just feel stuck in your current state? If this describes your inner dialogue to any degree, I'd like to provide the support you are seeking to bring all the pieces of your life's puzzle together.

Choosing the right therapist can be a really difficult decision. One of the biggest barriers to starting therapy may simply be that you don’t know what to expect. My goal as a therapist is to provide you with complete transparency as we work together to reach your goals. My role in our relationship is to support you as you process, grow, and heal.

There are many different reasons to seek therapy and whatever it is, I will create a safe place where you will feel heard and respected and supported. It is my goal to work together to help you better understand yourself, name and address obstacles, and help you work towards the life you want.

Navigating through life can be a rollercoaster ride, with no blueprint telling us what to do. Like a rollercoaster ride, life comes with many ups and downs, and curves in between. At times we may feel stuck or have exhausted all of our options, these thoughts are normal. My goal in counseling is to help you get unstuck and get you back on the ride we call life.

"Why is my life so out of control?" This is a very common question patients ask me when first entering treatment. The real question is what are the underlying root causes that is generating these challenging behaviors. Through a thorough assessment I will help you identify such areas as depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder, life stressors, etc. that may actually be driving the dysfunctional behaviors of alcoholism and/or drug abuse, marital distress, poor anger management and overall stressful interpersonal conflicts. Let me help you develop a plan of action to get your life back today.

If you are looking for someone to talk to, who will listen, without judgment, and help you work toward your goals and become your true self, you've come to the right place. I have experience working with people dealing with a variety of issues. I will take the time to understand you, challenge you, and work together toward positive growth and change.
