Therapists in Fenton, MI

Are you sick of feeling unheard and unseen? As a neurodivergent provider in a society that is not always neurodivergency affirming, I feel connected to clients who feel as if they are navigating life without understanding themselves or their experiences. My own experiences and training have drawn me to my passion of working with neurodivergent children and adults utilizing a neurodivergency affirming approach.

Are you looking for assistance with managing stress, relationships, grief, parenting, anxiety, trauma and/or depression? Or, are you interested in help with weight loss, adjustment to illness, or stopping smoking? I am a board certified Health Psychologist specializing in short-term counseling (usually 6-10 visits but could be more/less). I believe that people benefit more from short spurts of counseling over a lifetime (as needed) rather than meeting regularly for long periods of time. I give you the skills. You live life and return as needed. I offer individual, couples, and family therapy.

I've been doing this work for 46 years now, and still love it. And, I'm used to being successful at what I do. The challenge for me is people's "inside" language - what takes place beneath awareness. This is akin to the language of poetry and myth. I then translate between the worlds of "problem reality" and the deeper emergent Self - which is why I find this work rewarding. In working with couples I seek to translate the language (hopes and dreams) of each to that richer place between and behind - where hope becomes real. Go see my website.
