I am licensed in Michigan with 5 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety & motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

My therapeutic style is laid-back. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you maximize them to overcome obstacles. I'm here to help you sort through the difficult things right now and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment.

Clients can expect a relaxed supportive first session focused on getting to know one another. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you’re hoping to work on and any concerns you may have. There’s no pressure to share everything at once. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, heard and understood while we begin identifying what support will be most helpful for you moving forward.
