There is something beautiful and inspiring about participating in another person’s healing journey and growth. I enjoy helping people find new ways of coping with adversity, developing ways to manage intense emotions, build healthier, stronger relationships and participate in activities that make their lives enjoyable and meaningful. Since 2003, I have worked in a variety of clinical treatment settings with adolescents and adults. I have Master’s degrees in Social Work with an emphasis on mental health, and Counseling with an emphasis on career counseling. I am a Certified Advanced Drug and Alcohol Counselor and licensed in the state of Michigan. I have trained extensively and on an ongoing basis in modalities of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Prolonged Exposure, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and Somatic Experiencing.
I take an integrative approach to wellness, recognizing that many strategies people use to cope with traumatic situations and overwhelming feelings developed for understandable reasons. When those coping strategies are no longer useful or in fact start to cause other problems, we all have the capacity to learn new ways of coping. I look forward to discussing how we can collaborate to help you reach your goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
