Tired of feeling overwhelmed, stressed out or anxious? Do you find yourself overthinking or worrying about any and everything? Do you experience a rapid heart beat, sweaty palms, dry mouth and shaking? Feeling on edge, irritable or tense? All these things keep you from enjoying your life. They hold you back in your career or in relationships or other areas of life. You want to feel at ease and less stressed out. You want to go after what you want without second guessing yourself.


I help client's develop life-changing habits that allow them to cope with any of life’s various obstacles that provokes anxiety. During therapy sessions we will work together to identify goals and map out a plan to reach those goals. You'll receive tools that you can start using today and the validation and care that you deserve.


You will find a supportive, non judgmental, safe space to share. Contact me to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation so I can answer any questions you have before we get started.

Welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in PA and MI. I believe in providing a non-judgmental space and personal connection to open up the opportunity for you to explore what's causing strain in your life: grief, anxiety, depression, past trauma, or other challenges. I offer practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Michigan

Finding the right therapist in Michigan starts with getting clear on what you need. Think about the concerns you want to address — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions — and whether you'd prefer talk therapy, medication management, or both. From there, look for a licensed provider (such as an LMSW, LPC, LMFT, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your specific situation. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and approach before you commit.

Michigan is home to thousands of mental health providers, with concentrations in metro areas like Detroit, Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, and Lansing. If you live in a more rural part of the state, virtual sessions can expand your options significantly. Many providers on Headway offer both in-person and virtual appointments, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and preferences.

Therapy in Michigan can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book — and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and your budget.
