Choosing to see a therapist is not always an easy decision. It is often hard to imagine sharing difficult, painful or shameful feelings with a stranger. Choosing to see a therapist is also a brave decision, filled with possibility. As an experienced clinical psychologist, licensed in Michigan and Indiana, I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative effort, in which client and therapist work together to know and understand the strengths and challenges that confront the client every day. Therapy is the work of knowing oneself and then setting out to manage these discoveries effectively.

I'm passionate about serving communities of people who have been underserved, and possibly harmed, by the fields of counseling and psychology in the past including: the LGBTQ+ population, those with non-traditional relationship structures such as polyamory, the kink community, and neurodivergent individuals. I strive to make therapy a comfortable and safe environment for people of all cultures, gender expressions, and sexual orientations. I am trauma-informed, sex and kink- positive, and body-neutral. I value social justice and hold anti-racist, disability-informed, feminist values, that I carry through my work.

Being a human is hard work! In therapy, we can learn, grow, and play with our experiences as a team. Together, we can learn to accept and value both the amazing and difficult things that come with a rich, meaningful life. Sometimes the challenges of life get in the way of our ability to access our individual and collective power to heal. Therapy offers a space to discover the parts of us that have become burdened and lovingly invite them to reconnect with our truest selves.

Are you tired from living in a world that doesn't make room for you to be your authentic self? Have experiences of oppression left you feeling hurt and hopeless? It is a radical act of rebellion to decide to love yourself in a system that wants you to hate yourself. Through engaging in authentic relationship in our sessions, we can begin to say NO to a society that wants us to be something we are not, and begin to embrace our honest, true, genuine selves. I’m here to support you with mental healthcare that addresses both individual symptoms AND the broader systems (sexism, ableism, homophobia, etc.) that often affect these symptoms

Are you and your partner in conflict about sex? Maybe you disagree about how much sex is "enough;" maybe you are feeling rejected or misunderstood by your partner. And now that you have fought about the topic, which is a vulnerable one, solving the problem feels all the more tender and insurmountable. Many life changes can impact our sex lives, and partners can struggle to navigate these changes when they impact our sense of connection, intimacy, and validation. Engaging in sex therapy with your partner can help.

We live in a world notoriously seeking conformity and suppression. How do we begin to unravel these layers to discover our own uniqueness and find the courage to show up? Conditioning and societal expectation often leave us feeling as though we are falling behind like we are supposed to have more figured out by now. Through a lens of compassionate curiosity I seek to help people in taking a deeper look beyond shame and explore preconceived notions about childhood wounds, sexuality, religion, relationships, career, and more. My goal is to empower you to discover and discern your own value system which may differ from your upbringing.

My goal as your therapist is to help you deeply know yourself and build meaningful connections with others. Many people come to therapy because they feel afraid to show the world their true selves, feel intense pressure to succeed, or have internalized messages that they are unloveable or unworthy. Many struggle with an inner critic and "irrational" fears. You might also use defensiveness, fear of intimacy, and shutting down to protect yourself from others when you feel unsafe. Instead of fighting internal battles and living in cycles of avoidance, I help you approach yourself and your patterns with curiosity and compassion.
