I often help couples who are struggling with heavy relationship issues that break their emotional bond. I have helped couples overcome issues with infidelity and communication, and begin the work to reconnect and build a stronger version of themselves and their relationship. I see couples (and all clients!) as composers of their own music, and I am just the conductor helping them play it.

Each person's narrative is so unique and important, and I consider it a great privilege to help folks shift their narratives from ones of struggle & hurt to ones of strength & growth.

Your story matters. Sometimes that can be hard to fathom in a world of so many but it’s true. Everything that you have been through- your experiences in life, your relationships and your point of view - all matter. They are just elements of what has shaped you into who you are today, how you move through each day, and how you might envision your future.

Seeking out a counselor can be confusing, scary and challenging! Whether this is your first time in therapy or you have had many experiences with a mental health provider throughout your life, know that you are welcome. You deserve a genuine listening ear and individualized treatment. I am especially passionate about religious trauma and working with individuals who are figuring out their beliefs and values. In all honesty, I just desire for anybody who is coming into my office to feel truly seen, heard, and that they are actually getting something out of therapy.

Hello, I’m Savannah (she/her). I am a Native (Ojibwa) woman originally from Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

I appreciate the strength and vulnerability it takes to open up and speak about your challenges, and would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey.

Concerned about your child? It's difficult when the feedback from teachers, doctors, or even your own instincts, point to something being “wrong” with your child. Remember, seeking help isn't a failure; avoiding it can lead to real problems down the road. An important part of child therapy is empowering kids throughout the process, fostering a sense of strength rather than shame.
