I provide a compassionate, yet direct approach to therapy which helps my clients feel supported on their journey.

You want to feel better, increase self confidence and gain more coping skills. Life gets overwhelming, and you are tired of feeling stuck or living in survival mode. You desire support to help process emotions, parenting, family relationships or life changes. Talking with someone who will validate your experiences is important to you. Having a safe space to explore your emotions and strengthen coping skills matters, you want to prioritize yourself in this space. It’s time to feel confident again and challenge those thoughts keeping you stuck to help move you forward into the life that you want. The life that you deserve!

Let’s be real. Like really real... Life can be more than hard at times, relentless even! When life happens, it can feel unbearable. Life can also feel very lonely and isolating. I am here to tell you that you are not alone because that is where I come in! I hold a Master's Degree in Social Work from Western Michigan University. I have personal and professional experience working with youth in foster care, adoption, neurodivergence, people experiencing homelessness, and concerns related to intergenerational trauma, spiritual confusion, depression, anxiety, and self-esteem.

You're wondering what you could do to improve your life your relationships. You need a safe place to unload everything and have someone guide you to a better place with real communication skills and a new direction. Someone that has 'been there' and guided others in their journey. I will listen to you. Then together we will move forward with options, a plan, and goals for uniquely you. We will figure things out and look for options to improve your life, your relationships, and issues you have.

To say that life is hard is an understatement. There is no shortage of challenges that often lead to us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, down, anxious, or hopeless. When these difficult emotions occur, we are often vulnerable to engaging in behaviors or making decisions that are not in line with the person we wish to be. Therapy helps provide the tools you need to thrive (or, in some circumstances, survive) and offers a space where you will be accepted, supported, and empowered. Therapy also aids in better self-understanding, enabling you to remain present amidst tough emotions while fostering more positive ones.

My imagination is captivated by how intricate and interconnected our stories are with the world around us, both in our intimate relationships and in the culture and society in which we live. Oftentimes these stories can weave patterns of disconnection between oneself and others, leaving us feeling stuck, and in need of care and tending. In my work, I offer a heartfelt and empathic space to explore your experience in the world. Whether it’s finding self-acceptance, moving through anxiety or depression, or navigating relationship challenges, I meet you where you’re at and help you find your inner resources for healing.
