Life Transitions Therapists in Clare County, MI
I have been working in the field of Social Work/Mental Health since 2011. I am passionate about supporting individuals in learning about and processing through the ways life experiences and traumas have impacted them. I find that often times (not always) people develop symptoms related to anxiety, depression & other mental/behavioral health issues because of how they have learned to respond to and survive through traumas and adverse life experiences.

You’ve maintained this far. You keep pushing: just one more dish, one more email, one more day until the weekend. You’re holding on by a thread and you feel ready to unravel. The typical things you do to ‘reboot’ aren’t working. You feel disconnected, off, worn incredibly thin, and are very aware that this feeling is just lurking under the surface. With years of experience in mental health and a passion for helping people regain their inner strength, you can escape that slow drowning feeling you are currently experiencing. You are the expert of your life, even if right now you feel anything but, and I can help you find that path.

All of us need to feel a sense of worth; that life has purpose. It is often hard to deal with difficult life events and experiences without the support of a trusted, trained counselor. I believe in creating safety and trust for the change process. I have worked with individuals, couples and families for over 25 years. I know that change often means examining our physical and emotional well being and developing strategies to unlock patterns of coping that are not helpful. I offer an approach based on training, trust and a resolve to help others find better ways to live.

The effects of trauma on young hearts can leave wounds that linger. For teens and young adults especially, trauma shows up in ways that are deeply felt in the body: feeling constantly on edge, shutting down when overwhelmed, struggling to feel trust, or carrying an unshakable sense of not feeling safe. You might notice a teen becoming more withdrawn, reactive, or emotionally unpredictable. For young adults, it may look like difficulty maintaining relationships, persistent self-doubt, feeling stuck in survival mode, or working hard to make sure everyone around you is taken care of.

I believe that most mental health struggles are the result of the places we come from, the identities we have, and the way we were raised. Whether anxiety, disordered eating, posttraumatic stress, or gender dysphoria, mental health issues are most often adaptive responses to dysfunctional situations. Together, my goal is to help build insight into the reasons why you're feeling the way you do and find new ways to navigate the world.

As a counselor, my goal is to help people of all ages reach their full potential. I know that people pursue counseling for many different reasons and because no two individuals are the same, each person is as unique as the situations they encounter. Because there are many variables that affect people individually, strategies for the therapeutic relationship will differ on a case by case basis. I will use a variety of evidence-based counseling techniques and principles to help you in your counseling journey.
