Blue Shield Therapists in Ann Arbor, MI

Are you experiencing challenges with feeling stuck and uncertain of your future? Do you often feel overwhelmed in achieving your desired goals? Are you finding yourself possibly taking the path of most resistance? Do you feel like you have been struggling through your journey alone? You are a high performer with perfectionism tendencies however, it feels like the more you try, the more difficult it is to achieve acceptance, healing and forgiveness.

Asking for help feels like stepping into the unknown, but you're tired of feeling this way. You're ready for a shift in how you experience life.

Coming to therapy can be a huge step in someone's life. People come to therapy to improve their lives from many different and difficult experiences. Trauma can affect people in many different ways. Using different methods and teaching tools can help improve someone's life. Trauma can be from bullying, car accidents, spousal abuse, child abuse, and other life experiences. Therapy and training give you back the inner peace you need. My approach is humbly understanding what you are going through.

Sometimes we need help with how we our feeling, changing a behavior, or the thoughts running through our heads. Individuals and families can be helped by sorting through how their feelings and behaviors affect each other. Seeking therapy can be the answer to these and other concerns. I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues and the affects on families. Entering therapy can be a big step and commitment but well worth the life investment.

Immediate openings! Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation, with little opportunity for interaction or getting to experience each other as real people. I can promise you that I am as real as it gets! I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible and experiencing yourself in new ways. Simply put, I don't believe therapy has to always be a painful thing. Calling a therapist can be super intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) to schedule a session and see how I can help.
