Hello,
I have dedicated more than 15 years of my life serving children, adolescents, adults & families across several counties in the State of Michigan. Throughout my journey I have served in many roles including frontline practitioner, therapist, program coordinator, mid/high level director, & Chief Executive Officer.
I have done this work across several systems including Juvenile Justice, Child Welfare, Mental Health, Substance Abuse, & Crisis Intervention. The experience of serving across these several systems has always led me back to my primary passion which is to work with resilient individuals. My therapeutic approach adheres to a focus in cognitive behavioral therapy rooted in strength based methods utilizing reality therapy & the recovery model to acquire a productive meaningful life.
I have provided extensive therapy and training/coaching with countless individuals with the focus being on obtaining emotional intelligence, adequate life coping skills, defeating situational depression, anger management & de-escalation, & internal/external conflict resolution.
My counseling style is eclectic & versatile, & I adapt to the individual needs & desires of the person that I am working with. If you are looking for a inviting, nurturing & safe place to be empowered then I am the counselor for you.
Take the 1st step & I look forward to working with you!

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.
