Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) Therapists in Mason County, MI

Deciding to seek therapy is a courageous step toward improving your life situation and finding the right therapist is an important part of that process. Since 2013, I have been a Professional Counselor in Michigan and have worked in various settings including clients' homes and schools, crisis stabilization centers, and outpatient mental health offices. I know that a successful experience in therapy begins with the development of a genuine and honest connection between client and therapist, and I work to provide my clients with a non-judgmental, supportive, and safe therapeutic environment.

Are you looking for a non-judgemental space to decompress and process through life's tough stuff? Are you seeking tools and tips for when things just feel too messy? When we are experiencing anxiety, depression, or any other intolerable feeling, it can be difficult to manage on our own. I offer a comfortable, non-assuming space to sort through any of life's complexities you or your family is experiencing.

Currently accepting new clients. I have extensive experience working with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, shame/guilt, trauma, family and relational difficulties, grief/loss and bereavement, school related or social issues. Through cognitive therapy, mindful practices, and skill based coping techniques I can work with you to reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life and relationships.

Have you found yourself in a difficult or complicated relationship that has caused you to feel anxious, helpless, doubt decisions, or feel broken? Are you having difficulty talking to others about your struggles? Fearing that others may not understand you or judge you. I am here to help you and guide you to access your power within you to take control of your life and begin the process of healing to move forward. With a non-judgmental and compassionate presence, I will offer support needed for you to carefully work through challenges and experience healing to begin living a more satisfying life.

My ideal client has a desire to reach their potential. My practice is grounded on a values and strengths based approach to therapy. As a woman of color, cultural sensitivity remains an important aspect of my practice. I have a history of treating individuals from various racial and ethnic backgrounds. A few conditions I have treated include: changing unwanted and harmful behaviors, reducing anxiety, building self- awareness through conflict management or protecting sobriety through harm reduction or pros and cons reflections.

Thank you for taking time to learn how we can partner together. I offer an atmosphere of warmth, encouragement, wellness and 35 years of experience as a marriage & family psychologist. Having raised a son and daughter, married a long time and six grandchildren, I know families, careers and life in general can be very stressful. It is my passion to help you make your journey easier and successful for you. Knowledge is power - the more you learn about yourself, communication skills, and acquire tools to eliminate depression, anxiety, anger, phobias, etc. the happier you will be in all aspects of life!

I am dedicated to providing services to each client with focus on their individual needs and health. My work is client-focused and uses a cognitive behavioral approach. I work to aid individuals in exploring their emotional, relational, social and spiritual goals.

I am a strength based therapist. You are the author of your story. I consider it an honor to help people on their journeys and reframe what keeps people from being their best selves. It isn't about surviving, it is about thriving. I work with many different people from age 16 to 90. At each age and stage, there are changes and transitions. Being able to move through and adjust to these changes is vital to being resilient and emotionally healthy. I will help you understand your strengths when you feel weakest, find hope and feel more in control

Life can be bleak, challenging, and overwhelming at times. Life can also be joyful, life-giving, and hopeful. Holding tensions is a major facet of who we are as human beings. Often feeling in crisis on this journey, trying to balance our approach, and maintaining contradictions of brokenness and wholeness. My own journey has reflected much of this- in many ways I have suffered indescribable trauma; while in others I have experienced life altering joy. Each journey is incredibly unique and complex, and as human beings we have an innate desire to navigate our stories with the love, support, and friendship of others.

Life is a tapestry. It can be something so beautiful, but intricate causing frustration and heartbreak that lies beneath the surface, and sometimes sections can go uncompleted. In my 15 years of experience, my role is to work with you toward addressing the various issues and the complex nature of what can come and does come. My experience working with various populations have allowed me to incorporate multiple approaches and techniques that assist my clients in overcoming their struggles. Areas of specialization include working with children and adolescents, women's issues, blended families, trauma, and academic underachievement.

Thank you for visiting our post! We believe people come to therapy equipped with the tools needed to flourish in life and relationships. Sometimes the trials and tribulations of life get in the way. Unresolved fear(s), the past and loss can become barriers. We hope to assist those with the desire to grow in some area of their personal life and are willing to explore how to reach their potential. Our role is to come alongside and help build solutions that support the individual's best hopes.

Life can be hard, and for many, the last several years have been particularly hard. Sometimes it is traumatic and tragic, other times it's overwhelming and confusing, and sometimes it just feels plain blah. Over the years, counseling has played an important role in my own life, helping me navigate the ups and downs. In turn, I have had the chance to walk with people during some of the darkest and most challenging seasons of their lives. My hope is to continue to journey with others and be a healing presence in their lives.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families in areas relating to anxiety, depression, general relationship concerns, health issues, life transitions, marriage counseling, ADHD/ADD, and faith. I also specialize in psychological assessing for ADHD/ADD, professional/organizational development as well as other areas.

Reaching out for help can be difficult and frightening. You deserve commitment to maintaining a non-judgmental and collaborative therapy environment when the time comes. Our tendency as humans is to avoid any contact with painful emotions and disturbing memories. Unfortunately, during traumatic experiences our minds focus on the worst part; so this remains our experience. Much like our bodies, our minds have the potential to heal if given the opportunity and will move to a more adaptive experience. I look forward to sharing in you journey.

Identity formation, anxiety reduction, and skill building. I work primarily with young adults, women going through life transitions, and women constructing and reconstructing their faith

With 28 years of experience, helping others is not just my job; it is my nature. Life can be stressful at times, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and lost in your own thoughts. In my practice, you will find a warm and empathetic environment so you may share your feelings and your story. I offer coping skills, ways to understand your emotions, and help you find real solutions to daily problems. These tools can help to restore a sense of calm in your life and guide you in finding your way back to yourself.
