My aim is to help others improve their overall well-being by assisting clients with enhancing their emotional intelligence, developing effective communication patterns, facilitating positive behavioral changes, and identifying healthy coping strategies.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, angry or stuck? Are you experiencing issues with your relationships: marriage, family, friends, or career? Are you having difficulty making decisions? Is fear, lack of motivation or sabotaging behaviors getting in the way of your true potential? Does the fear of letting go and creating something new feel uncomfortable or impossible? If you have answered "Yes" to any of the above questions, I can help!

I treat depression, anxiety, and trauma. I provide guidance with regards to interpersonal and marriage/partnership issues as well. My approach is to address underlying issues and provide treatment that heals the person as a whole. I utilize evidence-based and self-empowering modalities and create a safe space for you to work towards gaining insight into your choices and behaviors. I guide you to set your own goals and arrive at your own solutions as I believe you have the answers and need a supportive space to see them. It takes a lot of courage and humility to ask for help and I make every effort to make your investment count.

You are one step closer to feeling more in control of your life. Reaching out for help is a brave, and sometimes scary, thing to do. My goal is to help you through the immediate problems that have led you here, and to also teach the skills needed to have better control of your emotions in the future. You can find peace within yourself and your relationships through a process of self-reflection, effective communication, and healthy boundaries.

This has equipped me with the wisdom and compassion to approach therapy and coaching through the lenses of empathy, care, non-judgment. I have additional experience with couples, adolescents, trauma, addictions, relationships, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychotherapist who studied at Western Michigan University. I am a Master’s Certified Addiction Counselor, EMDR & Gotman level I trained. I have been in practice since 2012. My goal is to utilize evidence-based techniques to help clients achieve their wellness goals. I am devoted to helping couples restore intimacy, passion, and commitment, to helping individuals with mental health and addiction concerns to better cope and achieve some level of homeostasis. One of my strengths is the ability to break down complex issues into smaller segments so that clients can get unstuck and move toward healing/recovery.

I enjoy helping both individuals and couples to ask important questions, to look at themselves, their issues and their emotions without judgment, and to be curious about new ways of relating to life. I value collaboration, respect, kindness, and humor in our work together. From this foundation, we explore core beliefs and past experiences that shape who clients are and how they react. We work on noticing and transforming current patterns. As clients gain a deeper connection to themselves and greater insight into their stories and their loved ones, they find new ways to create peace and fulfillment in their lives.

Life is complicated under the best of circumstances and during periods of change it can be particularly stressful. Perhaps you are dealing with anxiety, depression, substance use, or other challenges. Many people struggle with transition in adolescence, adulthood, marriage, divorce, retirement, chronic illness, or injury. My goal is to help develop skills and abilities to meet these challenges and experience the best life possible. As a certified Middle / High School teacher and School Social Worker I have specialized experience to assist teens.

We all want to feel connected, right? To feel we belong and are seen, understood, valued and accepted for who we are. Often, how we protect ourselves from our own fears and vulnerabilities keeps us from allowing others to really know who we are. We hide our tender hearts and limit our true selves, for fear of being hurt. However, in doing so, we live "small;" our lives and our relationships can become diminished, unsatisfying, and hopeless. Wouldn't you rather live in truth, shining your brightest light?

Whether struggling with a specific challenge in life or relationship, or continuing your growth on the ever-expanding spiritual path of life, it is my passion to share this journey with you. I believe strongly in the mind-body connection and utilize mindfulness-based techniques (such as meditation, visualization and body awareness) united with elements of more traditional modalities. Encompassing a holistic approach to therapy, all aspects of the client's life are included to increase balance and self-awareness, identify personal therapeutic goals, and then to co-create the most enriching path toward optimal health.

It's common to feel a lack of focus, become stressed, feel down and not as happy as we once were. We can experience a loss due to death, loss of a marriage or friend and need to go through the grief process. In our current world, often, this can cause anxiety, depression, pain issues or even lead to family difficulties. If you've tried a variety of approaches, yet they have not worked, please try a different approach. If seeking counseling I will help you with suggestions on how to get back to HAPPY again! We have much to offer.
