Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with over a decade of experience and deep roots in my community. My background spans a wide range of clients — from children navigating complex diagnoses like ADHD and autism, to military veterans, to families working through some of life's hardest transitions. I practice via telehealth, which means wherever you are in Michigan, I'm here. I bring a lot of real-world experience to our work together, and I meet you exactly where you are — no judgment, just support.

My approach to therapy

I believe in honest, grounded conversations. I'm not here to tell you what you want to hear — I'm here to help you figure out what you actually need. My approach is practical and collaborative, drawing on my experience across a range of populations and presenting concerns. Whether we're untangling a diagnosis, processing a loss, or just trying to make sense of a hard season, I'll bring both clinical skill and genuine care to every session. You set the pace; I'll help clear the path.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is really just a conversation — a chance for me to understand what brought you here and what you're hoping to get out of this work. I'll ask questions, listen closely, and start to get a sense of what matters most to you. There's no pressure to have it all figured out before you show up. You just have to show up, and we'll take it from there together.
