Teletherapy for West Bloomfield, MI

I believe in meeting my clients where they are today with a strong sense of empathy and compassion. I have been working with families, teens and adults since 2001; treating a variety of struggles such as anxiety, depression, relationships issues, parenting concerns, sexual dysfunction/health and more. I find that building a strong connection with my clients is essential in making progress in the therapeutic relationship. If you are struggling with work, life stress, relationships, and other transitional issues this is your first step. These roadblocks that keep you from living your best life can be overcome!

Sometimes when it seems like things are falling apart, they really are falling into place. Hand in hand, I walk with my clients to help them discover improved coping skills and to process major life events. My style of therapy is client centered - I believe in non judgmental positive regard and processing issues together instead of the stereotypical therapist who asks "how does that make you feel?"

I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, conflicts in relationships, and uncertainty in overcoming life’s many challenges. I place equal emphasis on developing a warm, trusting therapeutic relationship and on the practice of intense listening. This allows us to discover and explore aspects of your self that have been hidden away as a means of coping with distress. At present I am able to bill for Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS) or work with you to establish a fee based on a sliding scale.

I specialize in students of all ages who are not working at their potential. These include individuals with Learning Disabilities, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Aspergers Syndrome, Work or School-related Anxiety, Gifted Learning Challenges, or Unconventional Learning Styles. Thirty years in public education has provided me with the experience to teach strategies to the student, and to recommend individualized accommodations and modifications to parents and educators. I also provide short-term counseling to rebuild self-esteem and motivation. I focus on the student's inherent gifts and am an advocate for the student.

My clients are busy professionals in a variety of careers who are struggling with stress, grief, and anxiety and want more peace and fulfillment in their life. They are looking for a therapist who is empathetic, culturally sensitive, and an expert at helping clients navigate stressors.

I have been in practice for over 40 years and I believe that I am successful in making most clients feel comfortable and listened to. I have extensive training in psychotherapy and my therapeutic approach is practical and supportive; I am active, compassionate and able to engage the client in the therapeutic process. I try to meet the person where they are at and tailor a therapeutic approach that meets their needs. I have found that deep and genuine emotional understanding and insight translates into real and lasting behavioral change.

At times life's struggles can lead to a need to adjust to things thrown your way unexpectedly. In these cases, feelings of anxiety, sadness or adjustments can become overwhelming and require some outside assistance to help us think things through and sort out our choices. Individuals with these concerns may want to find a place to assist them while maintaining their privacy, dignity and respect.

I enjoy helping individuals who need guidance with discovering the area's of their life personal or professional that are creating challenges and causing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma or relationship issues. I create an environment where I assist my clients with finding solutions to help resolve these areas of concern.

I work with individuals, couples, and families facing challenges of aging. Presenting issues include one or more of the following: caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, depression, anxiety, loneliness, diagnosis/prognosis, end-of-life, improved communication skills among family members. Guidance and support is provided to address short and long term needs.

Clients wanting change, a non-judgmental listening ear, encouragement, and tools to improve their personal situation are welcome. Whether you have lost yourself, are uncertain about the future, unsettled due to life challenges, depressed, anxious, having relationship/parenting troubles, experiencing boundary issues, or just simply feel stuck and do not know what to do, you have taken the first step towards getting help. We will explore what changes or improvements you are looking for and you will learn more about yourself and others around you and will have strategies that will assist you in creating a better future.

I enjoy working with individuals of different ages, ethnicity, in need of individual, couples or family sessions. I believe that life is a journey, which at times, can be very challenging. Sometimes we find ourselves at a crossroads, trying to decide our direction. Staying on familiar paths can be easier yet repetitive and stagnant. Growth means change and following new paths, though unfamiliar and with unseen risks. Therapy can help one believe in themselves and try new paths, with the therapist lighting the way.

I have extensive experience in both the social work and education fields for the past 27 years. I have had the privilege of working with young and old adults, families, children, adolescents, individuals in recovery, and the homeless. Meeting people where they are and assisting them with loving themselves first on their journey of self-fulfillment while using their unique gifts to help others has always been my goal. I have a vested interest in working with individuals who are experiencing the challenges of life particularly in the areas of personal growth, premarital, and marital matters.
