Asking for help is a sign of strength

If you are seeking support, please know that it takes true courage to reach out. Recognizing that you don’t have to face everything alone is a powerful and hopeful first step toward healing in today’s fast-paced, demanding world.

It’s completely natural for asking for help to feel difficult at first—but with time and practice, it becomes more comfortable. How we experience the world deeply shapes how we manage its challenges. Opening yourself to support and new perspectives can be a transformative beginning.

Through compassionate guidance and connection, you can build the inner strength needed to navigate life’s difficulties more confidently. Each step you take with support brings you closer to greater resilience and success in your journey toward wellness. You don’t have to do this alone—we are here to walk alongside you.

Please contact me to schedule a free initial consultation.

I look forward to helping you make the first step toward your well being.

“If you summon your courage to challenge something, you’ll never be left with regret”

Areas of Expertise

  • Anxiety can feel overwhelming. I work with you to develop practical strategies that soothe your nervous system and effectively manage both general and social anxiety.

  • Setting boundaries is essential for maintaining healthy relationships with others and yourself. Boundaries define where you end and others begin. I work with you to identify and establish boundaries that support your well-being and fit your life.

  • Communication is a skill we rarely learn, yet it is essential for healthy relationships and personal well-being. I guide you in discovering the most effective ways to express your needs and feelings clearly and confidently. Together, we work on building communication strategies tailored to your unique experiences, helping you connect with others authentically and improve your overall quality of life.

  • We often lose sight of our unique strengths and abilities, which can significantly weigh on our overall confidence and sense of self-worth. I provide personalized counseling and compassionate, supportive guidance tailored to your individual needs to help you build, restore, and strengthen your self-confidence over time.

  • Depression occurs when your mind and body signal that they can no longer continue as they are. It goes beyond feeling sad or “off.” I work with you to identify your personal triggers and develop practical strategies to manage and overcome depression.

  • Experiencing life transitions as an adult can feel overwhelming and uncertain. There is no manual to guide us through these changes, but you don’t have to face them alone. I am here to listen and support you every step of the way.

  • We engage in therapy not only for ourselves but often for those who aren’t able (or unwilling) to seek support. Therapy provides a space to explore and understand our current and past relationships. Through this reflection, we gain the tools to create and nurture healthier connections moving forward.

  • Trauma is an experience that overwhelms your ability to cope and leads to significant emotional and psychological pain. I use two specialized approaches, EMDR and IFS, to help you work through your trauma and reduce the distress it causes, guiding you toward healing and relief.

About Me

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
— – Ralph Waldo Emerson

I’m a therapist who believes in cutting through the noise to get to what’s real. I work with people who are tired of feeling stuck—whether that’s in anxiety, grief, self-doubt, people-pleasing, or the weight of never feeling “good enough.” My approach is grounded, compassionate, and direct. I don’t sugar-coat, but I do sit with you in the hard moments without judgment, without shame.

I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can breathe, feel your feelings without shame, and explore the truth of who you are—not just who you think you should be. Together, we work toward meaningful change, not quick fixes. That means exploring patterns, challenging unhelpful beliefs, and building a life that actually fits you.

Whether you’re coming in overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure where to begin, I meet you where you are—and walk with you from there.

I offer therapy sessions via telehealth in Michigan. I'd love to hear from you. Contact me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
