Therapists for Teens and Adolescents in Southgate, MI
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or just not like yourself lately, you’re not alone. A lot of people come to therapy unsure of where to start—they just know something isn’t working anymore. That’s okay. We can figure it out together.
When we meet, my goal is for you to feel comfortable being real. You don’t have to have the “right words” or explain everything perfectly. We’ll take things at your pace and focus on what’s been weighing on you, whether that’s anxiety, stress, or things from your past that still feel present.

I believe an effective component of therapy is knowing that you have someone who is truly in your corner. This is why I strive to create a supportive space where you feel seen and understood—a place to safely wrestle with feelings, explore options, and gain clarity. I use a comprehensive approach borrowing from various therapeutic modalities to ensure that we keep in mind where you come from as we try and remove the obstacles standing in the way of who you want to become.

Being human is challenging at every stage of life. From our earliest years through adulthood, we all navigate big feelings, challenges, transitions, and the experiences that shape who we are. My ideal clients are highly sensitive children, caring adults, and families seeking a deeper understanding of emotions, behaviors, and relationships. They often come to my practice when feelings become overwhelming or past experiences are influencing the present. I provide a warm, supportive space where clients can explore their inner worlds through attachment-based care, emotional skill-building, and inner child work.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re juggling anxiety, relationships, work, family responsibilities, or major life changes. You may be so focused on caring for others that you’ve lost sight of your own needs. If you’re feeling exhausted, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you’re not alone.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, accepted, and truly heard. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build effective coping strategies, strengthen emotional resilience, and work toward the life you want to create. I am trauma trained in EMDR also.

I became a psychologist to help individuals learn to appreciate their individuality and understand that not everyone learns, processes, and thinks the same way; but rather everyone is unique and can benefit from therapy. I enjoy teaching coping skills to people so they can feel more empowered and take control of their own lives. I find this especially important when working with clients that have had a past diagnosis of a learning disorder. I feel everyone has the potential for growth but the path to growth is not the same for everyone.
