Great to meet you!

Some of my background...

After raising a blended family, I decided to go back to school and change careers. Therapy lets me combine two of my lifelong passions: helping others succeed and horses. I now divide my time fairly evenly between working with horses and providing therapy.

I graduated from Oakland University in 2021 with a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I worked with a non-profit group for a year before starting my practice in 2022.

My approach to therapy

I strongly believe that...

You have within you what you need to work through your struggles and heal.

You just need the right atmosphere and guidance to tap into it!

I’m here to be that trusted relationship – to empower you and give you hope for a better tomorrow.

What you can expect from me

And I’m as real as it gets. I’ve experienced some of life’s lowest points and made regrettable decisions, but these tribulations helped shape who I am today.

I found some amazing souls along the way to support me on this journey and inspired me to help people like you.

So, let’s connect, have a conversation and virtual cup of coffee, and let me get to know YOU.

We’ll unpack the events, big and small, that made you the person you are today. As we work to heal the unprocessed pain of your past, you’ll learn new skills to cope better and navigate triggers more easily.

Now is the time to commit to positive change. Take the first step and call me today.
