Teletherapy for Michigan

While I am full, we have other therapists within the practice who have some availability. Sometimes life throws challenges at us and it is hard to know how to keep moving forward. I see myself as a collaborator in the messiness of life, coming alongside you to help maneuver through challenges and obstacles. I meet you exactly where you are, serving as a supportive person that helps you identify and accomplish your goals. I treat each client as a unique person and do not employ a one size fits all approach. I am direct and non-judgmental and see an equal amount of individuals and couples/groups.

As a counselor, I am a strong believer in the power of finding healing through creative expression, both internally and externally. I work from an integrative mind/body perspective to journey with you in order to better understand what can best support you in your healing. Depending on what fits best for you, I am a Registered Art Therapist and have extensive training in complex trauma. I am also a level 1 graduate in Somatic Experiencing and am trained in EMDR and DBT. I also integrate approaches from Internal Family Systems and other modalities that support the untangling of generational, systemic and environmental trauma.

Please note I do not take insurance. I feel most useful when I am working with folks navigating LGBTQ, Addiction, PTSD/trauma, and disordered eating. If you have been in therapy before and feel like something has been missing or something feels stuck. I may be a great fit to support you in getting "unstuck".

Making the decision to create change in your life takes courage and strength.

Are you seeking a life that is full of acceptance, abundance, and safety? Do you crave fullness and vibrance in your life, but you’re unsure of how to get there? Are you feeling stuck or confused? One of my main goals as a therapist is to help you align with your values & live a life that’s fulfilling to you while working through tough emotions that you feel are holding you back. I often work with clients who identify as LGBTQ+ or are struggling with depression, anxiety, shame, trauma, and people-pleasing. All identities are welcome here, especially those who have ever felt like an “outsider" in their community.

“Self-care is the constant practice of not letting more pain accumulate.” -Susan Raffo. I have a special interest in the wellness and wholeness of QTPOC, and helping each person uncover the underlying foundations of their discomforts. I believe in treating the intersections of the mind, body, and spirit. Listening, witnessing, empathizing, and being present are tenets of my therapeutic framework.

As an openly polyamorous-queer-gender nonconforming person, I’ve spent most of my life experiencing microaggressions & unlearning the cisnormative & hetronormative messages that constantly tell us we are defective, broken, or unwanted. They are wrong! We are fabulous, vibrant & deserving, of all the gifts the world has to offer. I became a therapist to share what I’ve learned, bring healing, & advocate for queer/trans youth, young adults & their families while working for social justice & full inclusion into society. Our work will be in a safe, affirming space so we can collaborate to create & implement a road map to your recovery.

Seeking therapy is an invaluable investment in oneself, and I believe it is my job as a therapist to empower clients to find and live their own paths and truths. The path to healing begins with a trusting and accepting therapist-client relationship; I provide a space that recognizes and centers the unique strengths, values, and lived experiences of each individual, and I seek to partner with clients to best meet their needs. Respecting client self-determination is fundamental to my practice, which is grounded in cultural humility and recognizing the ways in which our values and identities form the many facets of who we are.
