Therapists in Ferndale, MI

My intention as a psychologist is to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental atmosphere to empower clients in order to facilitate change that is congruent with living an authentic life. Through a collaborative approach which invites self-exploration, clients have an opportunity to reach their full potential. I strive to help my clients uncover meaning in the midst of pain and suffering inherent in the human experience through a humanistic and existential methodology.

Most people will experience emotional and psychological distress at some point in their lives. And, most people will go through it without seeking help, thereby prolonging their suffering unnecessarily. Some people choose to do this because they are unsure about what therapy can provide. Therapy helps by trying to make sense out of our experiences, by trying to figure out why we feel and do the things that we feel and do. By making sense of our experiences, it helps us to understand ourselves, to change and to live a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

Accepting new clients for day time appointments... Lets face it: seeking out a therapist can be a daunting task. One of the most important parts of therapy is the therapeutic relationship.

We will work together to come up with solutions and skills to help you feel better and find balance, and hope. It is my belief that everyone can find meaning and fulfillment in their lives, no matter how difficult it may seem.

For 20 years I have been helping people through difficult times in their lives. Difficulties like anxiety, depression, stressful life changes, and issues with relationships and sexuality. I have seen hundreds of clients and helped them recognize what's really holding them back. My practice is grounded in these core beliefs: We all can change; all people are worthy of dignity and respect; everyone is deserving of love; the answers to our struggles are inside us.
