Therapists in Fenton, MI

You have the diagnosis of Autism, now what? Getting the diagnosis can be emotional. Trying to figure out how to help your child and provide them with the tools they need to be successful can be draining. I assist parents of children with Autism and adults with Autism in getting financial resources, therapies, doctors, alternative medicine, holistic providers, and more, as well as helping parents who are dealing with difficult behaviors. No two children with Autism are the same and therefore no two treatment approaches are the same. **ALL SESSIONS ARE DONE THROUGH HOME VISITS OR TELEHEALTH

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.

My ideal client is any individual or couple that is ready to actively do the work to adjust and rearrange their personal habits in order to more productively move forward in their lives. No matter the issue, counseling is built on the idea that the client is in charge of the progress by dictating the amount of energy and effort they put into the process. Showing someone possible paths is useless if they choose to not walk down it.

My primary specialties include LGBTQIA+, ADHD, & ASD related care. With both lived and hands-on experience, I bring my CBT training and intersectionality-focused perspectives to my sessions. My goal is to help each person I work with develop strong senses of self, self-confidence and self-love.

I strive to create an open and safe environment where emotions can be expressed without judgement. I have experience working with those with severe and persistent mental health disorders (anxiety and depression, trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder), and emotion regulation. I have a passion for working with those who wish to better understand their emotions and learn new coping skills. My goal is to support those going through difficult life changes and help them to see their personal strengths along the way. I aspire to help end the stigma surrounding mental health and show that it should be treated with grace and kindness.

The foundation of every therapeutic relationship is built on empathy, trust and unconditional positive regard. Most often I find that my clients just want a safe person to trust who is able to kindly challenge them when needed while offering a fresh perspective to their own thinking. I am honored to afford my clients both the presence and the space they need to heal from their pain. I believe life is a journey. I believe in the presence and power of God in the healing process as well as the importance of personal choice, responsibility and perspective.

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.

If you are looking for ways to be effective in managing stress and finding balance in your life, cognitive behavioral therapy is likely to empower you with improving your ability to reach your goals. This involves a practical approach in utilizing your strengths and becoming aware of some self defeating patterns with thoughts and behaviors that keep you from moving forward in your life, and perhaps with relationships and career. I have many years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I am not currently offering teletherapy.

I believe that the most important component of therapy is the genuine connection that is formed between a client and their therapist. This connection forms the foundation for emotional growth and is the most important factor in achieving our goals in therapy. I have an innate ability to genuinely connect with people and provide them with unconditional positive acceptance and support.

Through life you may feel as though you are in a constant fight with yourself. Where the history of your battles have not been won, but only suppressed. Overtime they are unknowingly disarmed and you find yourself walking across an unknown terrain that triggers you to fall apart. With this comes the ability to pick up your broken pieces and put them all back together healthily. What is great about being human is the ability to learn and grow.
