Below you will find information about my experience and my approach in therapy to better assist you in your decision. I am a clinical social worker licensed in Michigan. In 2015, I started providing counseling in outpatient settings and more recently with online platforms. I have worked with a variety of people from children to older adults in both rural and urban settings. My clients have identified various concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, chronic illness, and grief and loss. Prior to working as a therapist, I worked as a case manager for seven years with older adults, people with disabilities, and veterans. My approach with clients is both understanding and interactive. I believe that therapy is a partnership between the therapist and client. The therapeutic perspectives that I work from include person-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I also utilize mindfulness and relaxation exercises during therapy. Together, we will create a treatment plan that is best suited to you and your situation. I would be honored to assist you on your journey through the current struggles in your life. I look forward to working with you!

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor working in the field with adults and couples for the last 6 years. I have worked with clients who suffer from depression, anxiety, trauma, sexual identity issues, and addiction. There is not a population of people I feel uncomfortable working with. My therapeutic approach is a combination of psychodynamic, humanistic, and reality therapy. My goal as a therapist is to help you meet your goals, while becoming obsolete. I want you to be able to live your life as free as possible and no longer have a need for me. I am an EMDR trained therapist, which has been an instrumental tool in working with individuals suffering from trauma such as loss of a loved one or rape. For more information on EMDR follow this link: https://www.emdr.com/what-is-emdr/ I would describe my counseling style as non-judgmental, genuine, warm, and solution-focused. I will help you get to wherever you need to go, whether that's a better sense of self, better work ethic, or lower depressive or anxious levels. I am also here if you just need an unbiased 3rd party listen to your issues in a confidential setting.

I have had two careers which run concurrently: many years as a parish pastor and at the same time a mental health counselor. I am strongly invested in the LGBTQ issues because of my transgender grandson's amazing journey. As a hospice chaplain, I have provided bereavement support counseling to families. As a divorce mediator employing dispute management skills, I have guided couples in making parenting decisions that are in the best interests of their children. My passion is not to be a sage on the stage but a guide by the side with individuals and couples seeking solutions that are practical. I have expertise in cognitive -behavioral counseling, rational emotive psychotherapy, anger management (especially with men who abuse), and Life Work Planning and Career Development. I have modest experience with Ericksonian Hypnotherapy and Healing Story Telling. I endeavor to blend theory and practice, while affirming growth and risk-taking. I am a non-judgmental listener. I employ humor and unconditional support routinely to neutralize resistance to change. I am old fashioned person who still believes in unconditional positive regard and seeking a truth that sets people free.
