25 years offering treatment
I am a therapist licensed in Ohio and Michigan with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges, and substance abuse disorders. I’ve also helped many people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe strongly in authenticity, intuition, and in movement toward self-actualization. I think it’s important to relate to everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, though I also believe in gentle confrontation when it’s needed. I don't rely on stigmatizing labels, as I find them limiting. My approach is eclectic – a mix of cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I believe that you already have the answers to what you need within you; and my role is to help facilitate bringing those answers to the surface by being supportive and helping you to feel empowered to change. It takes a lot of courage to seek a more gratifying and satisfying life and to begin to move toward change. (Nothing changes if nothing changes.) If you feel like you are ready, I am here and excited to join you on your journey! :)
