Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Charlevoix County, MI

Struggling with anxiety, depression, or coping with life stressors? Life can often catch us off guard and looking for ways to get back to a place of peace and healing. Together we can create a plan to assist you in regaining your ability to live a productive and meaningful life.

We will explore your current situation/presenting problem(s) in the initial session(s) to define your counseling goals. Then we will develop a plan to work toward those goals as we identify your strengths, any obstacles you might encounter along the way, and how you will know when those goals have been attained. I am confident that you will reach your desired healing and growth in this collaborative process. After achieving your goal(s) we may decide to set more goals or you may choose to end your counseling for now.

I love empowering individuals ; helping them to heal, rise above their challenges, take personal ownership over their life, and learn to thrive in every circumstance. I take a strengths based approach to therapy. "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it" - Helen Keller.

My goal is to empower individuals to navigate life's challenges, develop resilience, and cultivate healthy coping mechanisms. I primarily work with teen girls and women dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues and life transitions. Through active listening, empathy, and evidence-based therapeutic techniques, I aim to help my clients gain insight into their experiences, identify personal strengths, and explore solutions to their struggles. I strive to promote self-awareness and self-acceptance, enabling clients to develop a positive sense of self and build fulfilling relationships.

My ideal client is inspired to be curious together and work together to identify and remove blockages that prevent a life of clarity and abundance. Whether relationship issues, parenting challenges, grief, unresolved trauma, addiction, career matters, or even the most deeply-stuck moods (anxiety, depression, etc.), we all possess within us the capacity to instinctively heal and thrive with sustained connection, vibrancy and aliveness. It’s likely a simple solution, in need of the right "non-pathological" and rigorously client-centered approach is all. My clients are empowered to reconnect with and regain trust in themselves.

Welcome. I am so happy you are here. As humans we are extremely resilient and adaptive to our surroundings. At times, this can be a gift and it can also lead us on a path that is no longer serving us. Therapy has the potential to change the quality of our lives, as well as for those around us, for generations to come. I specialize in guiding people back to themselves, while setting the conditions for healing to take place. Given the right conditions our bodies and minds can heal. You already carry everything you need from within. My approach is rooted in authenticity, compassion, and client empowerment.

My goal is to walk alongside clients giving them the skills and healing they are looking for. I do this with a specialized treatment modality using EMDR. The feedback from this form of therapy continues to be my passion to help individuals who struggle in life.
