Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Novi, MI

Hello!

As a licensed therapist, I believe that good mental health is the key to enjoying and thriving in all areas of life. My therapy practice has been built around a mission to support teens and young adults who struggle with anxiety. Life can be a difficult journey. I'm here to do whatever I can to help support you.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, with over 20 years of experience working in the field of psychology. I earned a MS in Behavioral Psychology and a Psy.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy from Alliant International University (formerly California School of Professional Psychology). Over the years I have had experience working with various populations with diverse psychological problems. I have expertise in working with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, substance use problems, grief/loss, and couples and family therapy. Within my work, I have experienced successful outcomes in improving people's lives both individually and relationally- within the most meaningful relationships in their lives.

My priority is to help you find peace and transformation in whatever capacity that means for you. Whether you are looking to manage anxiety or depression, address trauma or self-esteem issues, we will work together to find an outcome that meets your needs, values and highest self.

I’m an Indiana and Michigan Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience helping young adults, adults, and older adults (65+) manage life transitions, emotional stress, and everyday overwhelm. As a fully virtual provider, I offer flexible, confidential online therapy to clients across Michigan.

I have over eighteen years of experience working with a diverse population seeking recovery from a great range of issues and needs. Over this time, I've assisted individuals seeking help with serious mental illness, anxiety, trauma, substance use, and stressors relating to housing and/or income stability, legal issues, divorce, grief, and religious trauma.

I personally know what it is like to struggle with anxiety and despair. I also know what it is like to go to therapy and to get little benefit from it. Many years ago, my emotional life changed dramatically when I stumbled onto resources that addressed my actual needs, and subsequently I devoted myself to a career promoting better mental health practices than I was taught when I was young.

Simply put, I teach people six interrelated psychological skills that you can use to transform your life. If all you want to do is explore the past, I'm not your best option - I focus on the past only enough to get us moving toward the future you want. I love to help people develop psychological superpowers that they can use to get the life they always hoped for, starting from where they are now and moving forward into a future they find worthwhile.

Hi and thank you for your interest. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience. I studied at The University of Akron and received my masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Clinical Counseling. I specialize in working with couples and families and have been known to have a direct, supportive and empowering approach. I have experience in working in outpatient, partial hospitalization, residential and inpatient facilities.

Finding a therapist that is the right fit for you can be daunting. I provide a non-judgmental space for you to be who you are and safely process your hardships. Life can be messy, embarrassing, hurtful and lonely. I'm here to work through it with you. I encourage all of the people I work with to understand that if nothing changes, nothing changes.

I have experience working with adults and teens. The biggest indicator of success in therapy is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. However, I work hard to stay up to date with treatment modalities to support a variety of mental health issues including but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, and codependency.

I obtained by master's degree in 2023 from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I have experience working with diverse populations, including individuals managing anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I specialize in trauma therapy, PTSD treatment, anxiety and OCD treatment, and substance use/addiction. I have additional experience working with survivors of domestic/intimate partner violence and human trafficking. I have recently obtained my credential as a Certified Trauma Professional (CTP).
