Being human is not always easy and life can be quite difficult. There may be times when you worry about the future, feel angry or sad; guilty or ashamed; feel upset about the emotional pain you are experiencing; or feel overwhelmed, anxious and stressed. Therapy can help by providing you with the tools and insights to help you navigate through the most difficult of life's experiences. I believe our most challenging times in life can also be our greatest opportunity for change and growth-therapy is the place to nurture that process.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples struggling with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, and addiction. My areas of expertise include couples therapy, men's issues, sexual issues, and parenting issues. My approach to therapy is engaging and interactive.

I take a collaborative, holistic, and relational approach to therapy that allows for the client to be the expert in their own experience. I try to create a non-judgmental space for clients to process and contextualize their experiences within the systems, relationships and positions in which we operate. I tend to be emotionally-focused and person-centered, meaning therapy will be a dynamic space that feels most aligned with what you may need or want on any given day.

It is my privilege and pleasure to work with adults in navigating life's challenges. Changes in relationships, family status, income, job status, children at home, health and more, create special challenges. It can really help to speak with a sympathetic, caring counselor who has been through it all. I specialize in helping clients work through empty nest transitions.

An important aspect of any therapeutic relationship is the rapport and ease you have in discussing your issues and concerns with your therapist.
I believe the right fit between the client and therapist is in large part a function of the flexibility in approach and ways of intervening with you as an individual client.
I see the therapeutic relationship as being a collaborative partnership that is outcome focused in addressing your issues and concerns.
The emphasis is on doing what is most effective in moving you toward your desired outcomes in the least amount of time possible.

My approach is caring, collaborative, and practical, helping clients clearly articulate goals and then work to accomplish them. I have a strong belief in everyone's innate capacity for growth and healing and my intention is always to help people access and draw wisdom from this inner capacity. In addition to working with individuals in this way, I also have training in family/couples therapy, and work extensively with adolescents, couples, and families. I was a Lecturer for 19 years at the University of Michigan School of Social work and taught courses in Family/Couples Therapy, Adolescent Development and Mental Health.

I see therapy as a gateway to strengthening our authentic self through healing, learning, acceptance and growth. It is often through our self-proclaimed imperfections that we find the greatest gifts, insights and points of focus that help us understand and become clear about the path we are walking and the possibilities that are before us. We have all known suffering, loss, trauma and despair. These experiences may shape us but they do not have to define us.

As a behaviorist, I believe that the environments in which we develop ultimately play the most significant role in our actions, decisions, and outcomes. Without the proper space for growth, healing, and self-development, one may face difficulties in achieving self-realization and self-actualization. Human-beings are social creatures – genetically designed, behaviorally conditioned, and evolutionarily driven. We possess certain intrinsic, natural needs and adaptations that have developed over millions of years. If these dualistically basic and complex needs remain unfulfilled, we will struggle to attain this self-actualization.

Due to telehealth, I can take clients from anywhere in Michigan. I enjoy working with clients who are up for a little work and challenge. I have a strong belief in the idea that therapy isn't something that is done to us, but rather something we must take an active role in to see any true progress. I view therapy as another way to add more tools to our toolbox in an effort to better ourselves. My goal is that by working together, you will learn things in a manner that allows you to function at your best regardless of what life throws at you.
