“When we are no longer able to change a situation…we are challenged to change ourselves” -Viktor Frankel I am a mental health therapist and substance use counselor who has dedicated herself to improving the lives of those faced with trauma, hardships and difficulties with overcoming issues of anxiety, stress and depression. Through the use of EMDR, clients will learn new resources and work to reprocess distressful experiences. I am licensed in both Michigan and Ohio. My goal is to build a strong therapeutic relationship in order to assist my clients with making changes to better their lives and facilitate personal growth and empowerment.
*CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* It takes strength to ask for help. Each person lives a life full of unique circumstances and challenges. I believe in partnering with my clients to help them develop their potential and find the path that is right for them. My goal is to empower clients to live their best lives. I enjoy seeing the pride my clients have when they've succeeded in reaching their goals. These goals are often hidden in everyday stressors and the challenges we face, and by exploring challenges in a safe environment, I support my clients in unlocking their goals and fulfilling them. Each person, while having unique psychology and brain chemistry, is an active participant in their environment, whether that be a school, work setting, family, or relationship. We are all influenced by others, and we all have the potential to change our lives. With this in mind, depending on individual needs, I help clients to advocate for positive change. Traditional office hours are often inconvenient. That's why I offer appointments between 8 am and 8 pm on weekdays. Please call or email, and I'll work with you to find the best time for your first appointment.

Many of the students I work with are trying to juggle a lot: school, work, relationships, family, and their own mental health. Some are dealing with anxiety, depression, or ADHD, while others are working through trauma or just feeling stuck and overwhelmed. What they tend to have in common is a desire to feel better and a willingness to take that first step toward support, even if they’re not exactly sure where to start. I work best with students who want someone who will listen without judgment, explain things clearly, and help them find a path that fits their unique goals, whether that includes therapy, medication, or both. You don’t need to have it all figured out before reaching out. We can work through it together.
