* Now offering virtual individual and group sessions*. Do you or your employees need help coping with the challenges that come with working virtually or returning to on-site employment? Has your work-life balance, wellness or working environment become more challenging? As an Industrial and Organizational (I/O) Psychology Practitioner I work with individuals and groups to assist in discovering personal strengths and possible areas for development in order to create a path and plan for personal and professional success.

I have a lifelong interest in collaborating with people wanting to grow toward greater engagement with relationship, optimum expression of life purpose, and balancing aspects of Self. Together, we build a safe space for curiosity about self, beginning where you are, and proceeding at your pace. I see a wide range of people including trauma survivors, artists, and LGBTQ+ people. I have experience working with depression/anxiety; grief; PTSD, dissociation; and life transitions. I don't treat substance abuse. Daily pot use stifles growth/change capacity, so I have found that therapy is not very useful until you have quit.

I believe that working together to create a collaborative approach is vital to a therapeutic relationship. I recognize that it takes courage to seek help--with that in mind, I treat my clients with respect, an open mind, and dignity. The truth is, we all have our own story to tell, and we all need help at least once in our lives, whether we want to admit it or not. To achieve their full potential, I provide a strengths-based approach with support, assistance, a listening ear, and guidance.

Life is full of transitions that often require support, guidance and trusted people to help. My experience connecting with many people to meet them where they are has contributed to my success as a therapist over the years in their times of need and celebrations.

“There are things about ourselves that we need to get rid of; there are things we need to change... The first thing we need to do is recognize and trust our own Inner Nature, and not lose sight of it." ~The Tao of Pooh. I find that through my clinical framework I look at the whole person, consider the factors leading into the distress or dysfunction, and come back to what matters most to you.

“You are Braver than you Believe, Stronger than you Seem, Smarter than you Think” -- A.A. Milne. I believe everybody has strengths and talents as well as a place to fit in among this world as well as a purpose. However, at times we all need help to find our strength as life challenges get in the way and we get stuck. “What is some wisdom you have gained through your experiences?” is a question I will ask you when you choose to work with me.

Growing up fatherless is a struggle far too many of our young boys face today. Angry, resentful, confused, uncertain and often unmotivated, the youth of Metro Detroit are desperate for guidance. Odis Bellinger was once one of those children. He credits his success to two people who refused to give up on him, no matter how hard he pushed them away. I UNDERSTAND what it is like to have that "absent father void".
