Couples therapists in Kalamazoo, MI

Real change requires more than just talking, it requires intention, insight, and the right support. With over 40 years of experience as a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and clinical leader, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals, families, and adolescents navigate life’s most complex challenges, including trauma, anxiety, stress, grief, depression, and family conflict. My approach is compassionate, structured, and results-driven, grounded in evidence-based practices such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). Clients often experience me as warm, grounded, and direct, someone who creates a safe, nonjudgmental space while also helping them identify patterns, build insight, and take meaningful steps forward. I don’t believe in surface-level conversations; I believe therapy should lead to real, lasting progress. I am fully invested in your growth, meeting you where you are while also gently challenging you toward greater clarity, confidence, and empowerment. If you are ready to do the work, I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way.

I have worked as Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for over 8 years in a variety of settings ranging from trauma, impact of addictions on mental and emotional wellbeing, to relationship issues and more. I tend to be laid back and easily approached with no judgement, no criticism and no assumptions.

Hello, and welcome.

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.

With seven years of experience, I offer a compassionate but direct approach to therapy. I’m here to challenge, empower, and support you—especially when you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed. Together, we’ll focus on real progress in your life and relationships, with clarity, courage, and intention.

Are you finding it hard to navigate everyday life? Are your relationships suffering? If you answered “yes” to these questions, please know you CAN live a different life. Relationship issues, trauma, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, and many other problems are challenging, to say the least. Therapy provides a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings, learn coping strategies, and improve your relationships. You do not have to go it alone when therapy is available.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and a National Board Certified Counselor with more than 20 years experience working with children, adolescents, adults, groups and the criminal justice system.
