I am a licensed psychologist and the clinical director of Sollars and Associates Integrative Counseling and Psychological Services.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS via Telehealth! Life can be full of ups and downs, but I am here to help. Do you have a teen that is struggling with daily life stressors? Would you like to improve your relationships? Are you struggling with transitioning into a new role like parenthood or starting high school, college, or a new job? Let us work together to address anxiety, depression, broken relationships, and past hurts so that you can reach your full potential.

The ideal client is a motivated individual seeking personal growth, self-empowerment, and a sense of purpose. They are open to guidance, support, and new perspectives, and they strive to align their goals and actions with their authentic selves. By investing in their personal development, they aim to cultivate meaningful relationships, achieve work-life balance, and live a fulfilling and purposeful life.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Life is full of challenges and setbacks and we sometimes need assistance. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation. I work with you to help you identify your desires and empower you to make those positive changes in your life. I recognize that making the choice to seek help can be difficult, so I use an approach that is compassionate, direct, and non-judgmental to help create an environment where you feel supported in your counseling journey.

Do you at times struggle with self-esteem, confidence or self-acceptance? The reasons why can vary, such as life experiences that has negatively impacted how you view yourself, fear of not being good enough, or peer rejection for being your authentic self. Whatever the reasons are often times you may feel hurt, sad and alone, which causes you stress, anxiety or depression. These negative emotions would impact your day to day living with school, work and in personal relationships. If this resonates with you and you want the skills to building your self-esteem and confidence, while relieving anxiety or depression, I welcome you.!

As a PHD candidate in International Psychology and Applied Behavior Analysis my goal is to expand mental and behavioral services in a cultural inclusive and relevant paradigm. Holding a BCBA certification (BCBA), a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology, and a BA in Counseling Psychology helps me empathize with individuals from various backgrounds. I have over 25 years of experience working with families in various facets including education, assisted living and community services. Particular specializations include but are not limited to ABA, developmental and cognitive impairment, diversity, cultural and international studies.

I feel a client deserves to be treated with dignity and respect regardless of what life challenges causes an individual to seek counseling. I am a compassionate and patient person which has caused my clients to feel very comfortable with me as a Clinician. I believe a person can benefit from guidance in all areas which is why I seek to treat the "whole person": body, mind and spirit.I attempt to bring a person to a place of healing from their struggles by allowing the client to have an input in the therapeutic process.

My private practice includes work with adults, adolescents and couples, with a specialty in adolescence and young adulthood. I have particular experience in treating depression, eating disorders, relationship and divorce issues, dissociative disorders, and childhood abuse issues. My primary goals include helping people deepen their understanding of themselves and their current difficulties, identify problematic patterns in their lives, and work through old hurts within a safe, understanding therapeutic relationship. I have given several talks to parents in the metro Detroit area preparing for and parenting their adolescent children.

My approach to therapy is based on the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy perspective, which focuses on the automatic thoughts one is having about oneself, others, or the world while addressing unwanted behavior patterns. I will facilitate conversation to work alongside you in your therapeutic journey, and I use reframing of negative thoughts, homework assignments, and genuine empathy. I earned a Master's of Social Work and a Bachelor's of Social Work from Wayne State University. I hold a limited license in social work and will be fully licensed in a couple of years.

Accepting new clients. If you are experiencing anxiety or depression, I can help you assess your circumstances, identify your stressors, and help you develop effective coping strategies. If you are experiencing problems in your relationships, I can help mediate resolutions, teach you effective communication skills, and put you on a path to healthier relationships. I look forward to treating people of all ages, ethnicities, sexual orientations, and gender identities. Everyone can expect to be treated with dignity and respect.

Hello and welcome! I am a fully licensed clinically trained social worker and the owner and founder of Apricity Therapy Services! I am eager to help you on whatever your individual journey may be. My goal is not to keep you in therapy, but to help you gain life-long tools that you can use on your own outside of therapy. I truly believe that each person has what it takes to heal and succeed, sometimes they just need a little guidance to get there. I am accepting telehealth clients all weekdays and in-person clients on Tuesdays and Fridays!

My professional journey as a therapist has been informed by trauma and the cycles we find ourselves within generationally, within our lifetime, and how we see them live out in relationships. I focus on assisting with acknowledging what you have navigated on your journey thus far and how these events and experiences have shaped you into the current version of yourself. This process is client led to assist clients with a natural balance of processing that isn’t difficult or jolting to your nervous system. My goal is to let your body and mind help lead us on the healing journey that makes sense to you.
