About me

I am currently licensed in Michigan with 4 years of professional experience working with all ages, especially adolescents and young adults. I have experience in empowering clients who are struggling with stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, chronic health conditions, self-love, and motivation. I also have experience working with LGBTQIA+ identified clients.

I believe in addressing all parts of a person and being able to adapt to the client’s needs. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. My goal is to create a warm and friendly environment where my clients can grow and heal.

You are in the driver’s seat of this experience; I am here to provide tools and help navigate. I look forward to getting to know you and learning the best ways to support you through some of life's hurdles.
