We all have meaningful stories to tell, and I look forward to learning how I can be of service to you, whether it’s easing stress, improving communication, getting your relationship (with others and yourself) back on track or helping you develop healthy thinking patterns. My goal is for you to feel valued, safe, and heard while building a relationship of trust and understanding. I will walk alongside you and provide collaborative, action-oriented and honest feedback to shape your journey towards a greater sense of freedom, meaning & purpose.
I grew up in West Michigan and attended GVSU and WMU for my education in psychology and counseling. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years & can help with a wide range of issues, including self-esteem, spirituality, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationships. I am LGBTQ affirming.
Counseling is a unique experience for each person. Finding someone who makes you feel comfortable and listened to is one of the most important pieces of your journey. I would be honored to help you move towards a happier and more fulfilling life. I look forward to meeting and working with you!
