Therapists in Saint Louis, MI

Prior to working at Michigan Psychological Care, I worked for several years at St. Vincent Catholic Charities Children's Home in Lansing, MI as a residential therapist providing individual, group, and family therapy.

Outside the office I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also like to spend time reading, watching movies, painting or drawing, and being outside.

When life becomes overwhelming, it's natural to feel lost. Whether you're a teen, in your 20s, or navigating your 40s, 50s and 60s, life's twists and turns can be daunting. From significant life transitions to relationship struggles, loss, anxiety, or simply finding your place in the world, you're not alone.

My goal is to help you work through challenges in your life by encouraging you to explore and discuss these concerns. We will develop goals to work towards change in this process. I work with adults, children, families, and couples. We can process a range of problems including career struggles, depression, anxiety, grief, ineffective coping skills, and relationship problems to name a few.

A few daytime openings are available! It's so hard on our bodies and minds to be pregnant, give birth or endure loss yet we're expected to carry on with our lives like usual. People that haven't experienced the physical complications and distressing symptoms can't relate. Talking about our "stuff" is uncomfortable because we often feel shame or guilt as we think we should be grateful or we're not feeling good enough. Pregnancy and postpartum is unlike any other journey; sharing our bodies with another human is hard, being a new mom is hard, loss/change is hard! Remember, you are not alone and with help you can be well.

Are you frustrated with the chaos, but don't know how to change it? Does your child need help? Is your family stuck in a rut? Are your kids hurting inside or struggling with life's challenges? I offer specialized therapy services to children and families, combining traditional talk therapy with the latest developments in play therapy. Because play is one of the fundamental building blocks of all communication; it works, even with very young children.

Is your family going through a major life change or stressor? Perhaps a parent or child is sick? Maybe there has been a loss, a move, or another big event? As a parent, you want so badly to support your child when they are dealing with changes, but sometimes you just don't know how. You might feel guilty, sad or frustrated that you don't know how to help. Your child may need their own space to process what is going on for them, as well as a safe space where you can work through these adjustments together. Therapy can be that space.

My goal as your therapist is to support and empower you toward your goals and promote healing.
