Therapists in Dowagiac, MI

I feel privileged when I am invited into your life to share in your pain and suffering in order to try to help you understand, heal and grow from the emotional wounds and trauma you have experienced. I believe our relationship is one between two equal individuals who will work hard to help heal and understand your wounds. We will be travelers on the journey of healing together and both be changed by our time together. A good therapy experience offers opportunities to learn important things about yourself, to acquire helpful life skills, and to integrate both the past and present to achieve a much better quality of life.

If you've ever found yourself in a situation where you needed support but didn't know where to turn, you're not alone. I recall my initial attempts at seeking therapy in my younger days, where encounters with judgmental counselors deterred me from seeking help for a while. As life unfolded, it became evident that something wasn't right, prompting me to persistently search for a compassionate guide who would listen without judgment and aid me in my healing journey.

Hello and thank you for visiting my page! I am a Limited Licensed Psychologist and have a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Cleveland State University. I completed my practicum with Neurology and Neuroscience Associates, Inc. in Akron, Ohio with a special focus on neuropsychological assessment and diagnostics. I have since worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings as well as correctional facilities. I am specialized in Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnostics and developmental disorders as well as other various psychological testing including ADHD and intellectual assessments.

I am a strong believer in the power of human connection and communication and have witnessed the power of this connection in fostering growth, healing, and reaching one’s goals in life. I strive to provide a warm and nurturing relationship with clients, where they feel safe to explore their experiences and patterns through this connection. I provide thoughtful and effective treatment plans by using evidence-based interventions tailored to each individual. I believe therapy should be collaborative, supportive, and playful!

You will be respected and your story acknowledged. No one has your exact story and circumstance. Together we will work so that the rest of your life's story may be genuine and fulfilling. I practice a predominantly humanistic approach in which you receive unconditional, positive regard. In other words, regardless of what you say, you will be accepted and supported and treated with value. Your healing, progress and strive will be the forefront of our work. Counseling requires work and courage to make healthy changes. I will be honored to work along with you. Let's be courageous together.

I believe in creating a warm and safe place where people can feel comfortable working through their difficulties and emerge with new strength. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families on a wide range of personal and interpersonal issues. Some people have a clear idea of the problem they want to address, and others are simply experiencing too much difficulty and only know that something needs to change. In either case, I explore their individual experiences and perspectives, and what they would like out of the therapeutic process before collaboratively developing the interventions and tools that best meet their needs.

The path to a quality world can be intimidating for people. I understand how it can feel like it is one that you are on alone. My work with diverse groups: adolescents, people that identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples, and people with disabilities (PWDs) informs me of some of these challenges. My experience supporting clients in their path to wellness through anxiety, depression, trauma, disability acceptance, adoption/reunification, incarceration, personality disorders and relationship/intimacy challenges makes me confident in the progress we can achieve in counseling together.

I enjoy working with with families, couples, and individuals from various religious and ethnic backgrounds. I have been married for 45 years and raised five children. My family experiences together with specialized training in relationships, domestic abuse, and parenting have prepared me to work with a variety of family dynamics. I have two Masters degrees in Psychology -clinical and counseling. I have a doctorate in clinical psychology. I also work with PTSD, ADHD and personality assessments, depression, anxiety, various mood disorders, relationship issues, post affair couple counseling, pre-marital counseling, grief & loss

Thank you for visiting my page, I specialize in anxiety, depression and communication, especially about interpersonal, marital, and premarital relationships. My faith is grounded in the Catholic church and many of my clientele appreciate and benefit from a shared belief, but my professional religious framework does welcome and include other faiths. God willing, I will be ordained a Catholic Deacon in April, so this is the lens through which I see and interact with the world.

An ideal client would be someone willing to put in the effort to change for themselves. During my internship experience, I had the opportunity to work with individuals who dealt with issues ranging from anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and much more. As everyone's journey is different, their goals and needs can be similar. Everyone craves a sense of belonging, and the path to finding a place where one belongs can be tough, but with the help of a caring and compassionate clinician, the journey can become clearer.

We are all on a journey together. This world that we live in can be incredibly beautiful, daunting and abysmal at the same time. It can be easy in our current culture to get lost in electronics, work, school, family, trauma, etc. We often begin to define ourselves by our work, car, and endless things. ​This is not the essential self, we were not born to be lost in this suffering. I believe we can work together to create the world that you dream of, and we can have real human heart to heart interactions. Through these encounters we discover ourselves, and begin to heal and live from our heart in an authentic and beautiful way.
