About me

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, fully licensed by the states of Michigan and Maine, with over 20 years of experience working as a clinical therapist. I have worked with clients of all ages and stages of life with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, grief, relationships, career challenges, trauma, conflict resolution, health and wellness, LGBTQ issues, and more.
My counseling style is positive, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating all clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, without judgement, creating a safe place for you to work on your challenges and struggles. My approach is cognitive-behavioral and solution focused, while also incorporating other techniques such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I also have training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Above all I customize counseling and treatment based on the individual needs of the client.
Change takes courage! If you are ready to take that step, I can help! I am here to support and empower you towards the change you desire.
I am looking forward to working with you!

She has taken the time to really get to know me, so when I talk with her, I know what she says is geared precisely to me. She’s easy to talk to, and she’s a great role model to me too!
