Therapists in Shelby Township, MI

My goal is to provide a supportive atmosphere to help assist in navigating and enhancing your ability to overcome problems, strenghten your relationships, build confidence, and develop a healthy sense of self. Therapy is not one size fits all and I believe treatment should be individualized based on the client. The therapy approaches I frequently use are Person-Centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Strength Based.

TELEHEALTH PROVIDER***Problems with your spouse, partner, child, family, friends or job? Feeling depressed, anxious or overwhelmed? Finding a therapist who understands your needs can be very difficult but with my 37+ years experience with mental health and substance abuse treatment can help you live a more satisfying life. I have experience with all age clients with mental health, substance abuse, grief and loss, communication, impulse control, ADH-D, learning disabilities, autism, parenting, school staff and trauma issues.

It would be hard to argue that our lives haven't been a lot more complicated over the last few years. Whether you are a child or teen dealing with peer pressure or the stressors at school, a stay at home parent trying to manage everyones busy schedules, a working professional balancing family life and the stress a job can bring, a single or divorced parent struggling to get through each day, a young adult looking for direction in life, or part of a family trying to raise your kids in this increasingly complex world, I have extensive experience in all of these areas. I am committed to helping you work through these challenges.

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.

Shall we talk about the issues you face? You may not be sure how to deal with them on your own. We could talk them through and consider the best solutions that would ease your mind by removing worrisome thoughts. Learning how to resolve some of these issues with people you relate to all the time will increase their understanding of you.

Working with adolescents, adults, and couples is my passion and primary focus. Therapy will empower you to overcome life's challenges and replace old patterns and beliefs with a new openness to the possibilities of your potential. My therapeutic techniques provide supportive interactions that can replace one's undesirable outcomes with improvement in self-awareness, ability to cope with trauma and grief, as well as personal barriers. Life is a constant balancing act of ongoing work, school, sports or health demands that include building and maintaining relationships that at the same time may require social, personal, and/ or parenting responsibilities.
