Optum Therapists in Ann Arbor, MI

Are you ready to move forward in your life, free from circumstances and emotions that have held you back? Making the investment in your wellbeing can help you become the person you want to be, living the life you hoped for. Risk and change are scary ideas, but together we can examine what is holding you back and develop a plan that will lead to positive, lasting life changes. So often people live a compromised life that leaves them feeling unfulfilled and unhappy. At RWCC our passion is to help you overcome barriers and make changes towards a more satisfying life for you and your family.

For anyone searching for an ally in approaching the challenges of life, choosing therapy can be a great option. In particular, I help folks who are coping with trauma, depression, anxiety, and ADHD. I specialize in working with individual adults, adolescents, and with families (parent-child focus). Another area of experience is helping individuals and families from adolescence to adulthood in understanding and navigating neurodivergence, especially as related to Autism. I welcome folks from any walk of life, though my practice is explicitly anti-racist, LGBTQQ+ positive, disability-conscious, and cognizant of systemic harm.

Deciding to take the step to reach out for support can be scary, and I know how that feels, but I’m glad you are looking to see who, and what kind of help, is available. Establishing a strong therapeutic relationship is a big deal, so it’s important to search for a counselor who will be able to help you feel comfortable enough to engage in the therapeutic process. I strive to provide a safe and comfortable environment to you as you embark on a journey that can help reach your goals no matter how big or small they may feel. I am dedicated to helping you face life’s challenges with healthy coping tools to achieve a balanced life.

I am passionate about creating an open/healing space for clients to share and their own unique story. I have 2 years of practice history with teens and young adults but love to see all ages. A specific passion of mine is assisting LGBTQIA+ individuals explore gender and sexuality as it pertains to their own identity as well as processing the lived, social experience of being queer. My goal is to help all of my clients find moments to express and celebrate their own joy while also processing the unique obstacles and emotions of their unique experience.

I am an experienced eclectic psychologist. I have been trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches: family systems, strategic, psychodynamic, EMDR, Jungian, cognitive behavioral, hypnosis, Gestalt, humanistic existential. and I can custom tailor my therapy to the best interests of my client. I enjoy working with, and have been successful with, adult clients of all ages, and with individuals, couples, and families. I'm particularly well known in my local area for work to halt domestic violence and child abuse, for helping people recover from abuse and other trauma, and for working with people with depression and/or bipolar disorder.
