Ypsilanti, MI 48197
I bring an array of knowledge and experience form Child Welfare, Residential Programs, In-Home Counseling and School Social Work.
Throughout life, it is possible to find ourselves on a journey we believe is impossible to complete. Through therapy, we learn that no journey is impossible; however sometimes we must detour...delay...revisit...or speed up! This analogy speaks to the true essence of therapy, helping others to navigate obstacles that present themselves along their journey. I will partner with you to find your path to a healthy existence despite any detours you encounter.

Petoskey, MI 49770
I have a MA from the University of Michigan in child development and a second MA and PhD from Walden University in clinical psychology.
Let my many years of knowledge and experience help you. In these challenging times maybe you feel as though there is no one you can talk to, no one who would understand what you are going through. Perhaps this is a new feeling or one that you have struggled with for years. If you have difficulty coping with daily stresses, managing conflicts, grief, loss, or struggling with relationships, I can help. When experiencing such difficulties a trained professional like myself may be needed to help.

I work with children and teens from ages 5 and up.
Life can definitely present us with challenges. Dealing with major changes in our lives, a chronic illness, the death of a loved one, relationship issues, or a difficult child can be emotionally draining. Psychotherapy can help to put your life back in order so that you can function and enjoy life again. I have been working with individuals and families for over 20 years. Support, guidance, empowerment, and education are key components to making positive changes in life.

I have more than a decade of experience working with children, adolescents and young adults in both clinical and nonclinical settings.
In all of my experience, the issues that we face have not changed but the ways that we address those issues have. I know it can be hard to ask for help, especially when you don't see yourself reflected in the person that is supposed to help you; that ends today. Together we will explore issues, find solutions and get to the root cause of what you feel is holding you back. Let me help you to invest in, learn about and strengthen yourself with no judgment, so that you can grow and develop into your best self.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, teens, and their families, while utilizing a person-centered approach.
As a counselor, my passion is helping people find hope in their healing process. It's about making commitments to healing in order to become your best self with a partner (myself) who provides a warm, safe environment while supporting you in a non-judgmental manner. Counseling can help both children and adults develop or enhance problem-solving skills, and to cope with stress and a variety of emotional as well as behavioral issues. My goal is not to make decisions or solve individuals' problems, but to gently guide them into naturally making choices that are right for them, their children, and family.

Sometimes life is so painful that even remembering reasons to stay alive can be very difficult. Life situations, such as grief or traumatic events, can cause day to day functioning to feel insurmountable. Finding coping skills and solutions happens when you have the freedom to talk about anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and suicide with the help of a skilled clinician who is comfortable working with it all -- and who understands, when working with youth, the importance of coaching parents so that they feel prepared to help their child through an emotionally difficult time.

Ask most kids, and they will straight out say most adults are clueless about how hard it is to deal with the problems they face. If as a parent, you feel like the sweet loving child you have raised has been abducted by "aliens" and your attempts to reach them have been unsuccessful-you're not alone. As a therapist, my focus is on listening to, entering and understanding the private world of young clients and adults. I utilize innovative, interactive and focused-based therapeutic approaches to help support, guide and coach the necessary life skills needed to meet their unique challenges.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Michigan provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.
Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time (likely in fewer than six sessions), the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.
The best child therapists in Michigan build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
