Starting therapy can be a scary thing. For some people they may see it as admitting to being broken or too weak to handle their problems on their own. Others may see therapy as a waste of time or money. In reality we just need help or feel like the world is just too confusing and scary to understand or cope with. That makes total sense if we stop and look at the world around us. Sometimes life hits us so hard that we don't know what to do next. And I am here to help you figure it out along the way.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I have been practicing for over five years as a therapist with individuals who largely have concerns regarding anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, loss, and compound grief. Although my therapeutic approach is largely based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I utilize a combination of other approaches as well. I am a nationally certified therapist in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and I am also a certified Grief Support Specialist. While these are the typical treatment methods I employ, I respect every individual I work with and I am more than willing to tailor my approach in order to meet your needs. I am empathetic, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. Confidentiality is a must and your sessions with me will absolutely maintain this standard. I certainly appreciate the courage it takes to reach out for support. I am happy you have decided to proceed and I am truly excited to meet and work with you!

Hello! I am a Clinical Social Worker in Michigan with more than 10 years of experience in a variety of settings and roles. I’ve worked with individuals and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, ADHD, ASD, relationship and parenting concerns. I think that life is like a river. Sometimes we get trapped by a rock or other obstacle in the river and struggle to get free. Sometimes the current is too fast and we can’t keep our head above water or we have lost connection with our current. We can end up on the side of the river, unable to see the next move or the way ahead. Years of experience in a wide range of settings and roles has taught me that we all have capacity to be the catalyst for change in our life. I look forward to developing a relationship that supports building capacity and competence in navigating the river of YOUR life.
