Great to meet you!

Whether you're navigating the pressures of growing up, exploring your identity, entering young adulthood, or moving through pregnancy and parenthood, what you're feeling deserves a supportive space. I'm Nike, a Michigan therapist who works with tweens, adolescents, young adults, and individuals navigating the perinatal and postpartum period. I support clients through mood changes, identity development, life transitions, relationships, and the many joys and challenges that come with becoming, and finding yourself. It is my honor, joy, and privilege to walk alongside people through these meaningful seasons of life.

My approach to therapy

I see therapy as an essential part of mind-body-spirit health and wellbeing, and I bring that perspective into every session. My work includes mood and adjustment disorders, OCD, ADHD, postpartum adjustment, some eating disorders, and high achievers who are used to holding everything together. Sessions are warm, collaborative, and paced by what you need.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is just a conversation, not an evaluation. I'll ask about what brings you in and what you hope to find on the other side. You'll have space to ask your own questions too. I believe in the healing power of therapy, and by the end of our first session, my goal is for you to feel heard and clear on what we're working toward together.
