Life can be chaotic and unpredictable with unexpected twists and turns that can leave us feeling like we’re barely hanging on. Most, if not all of us, come to a point in life where we need help from someone outside of our family and friends. Whether you are struggling with past traumas or current anxieties and stress, I am looking forward to meeting you to begin this journey of healing, restoring hope, and building resilience so you can thrive rather than just survive.

Is your child's behavior out of control? Would you like better control or a closer relationship with your child? I take a family approach that works with the child to learn impulse control and calming and coping skills.
Is your life not working the way that you want? Do you want change in your life but you don't know how to get there? I can help you! As a therapist I believe that you hold your own answers and just need guidance and help getting to where you want to be. My sessions are relaxed and comfortable and you get to control your own healing process. I offer video sessions to Michigan clients, from the comfort of your own home. They are private and on a HIPPA approved platform. I use an eclectic theoretical treatment plan ( a variety of different treatments) as no two people are alike and one size never fits all.

As a counselor for over 20 years, I get how overwhelming life can be. You might be wondering, "How can I go forward? Who am I now?" It might be hard to imagine you'll ever feel normal or happy again. You might wonder if it is even worth it. We'll look at your history to make sense of what happened, and how you got through it. Looking at how you've changed, and what you want now can be overwhelming. Together we can sort it out. As a cancer survivor I offer insight into navigating significant life changes, and options for growth. Figuring out who to lean on, and options to strengthen your spirituality can help with trauma, as well.

Family Therapy

What do family therapists do?

A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.

How long does therapy for families take to work?

Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.

How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?

You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.

Is therapy for families effective?

Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
