LMSW-C, 12 years of experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Michigan with a little over 10 years of professional work experience. I have obtained my Master of Social Work (MSW) at Chicago State University. I work with clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I also specialize in ways to navigate major life transitions, difficult relationships, anxiety, grief, and depression.
Seeking help can be scary. I am confident that I would be able to support you on your journey of navigating life's challenges. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
Navigating parenting and working with parents I feel that I have developed skills to assist with navigating parenting and difficult family relationships, along with helping individuals navigate life transitions. I feel that I am able to help by assisting you by identifying the root cause of your challenges and create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I also experience in helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, & trauma and abuse. I utilize multiple treatment approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and strength-based practices. I specialize in ways to navigate major life transitions, difficult relationships, anxiety, grief, and depression.
I’ve been using CBT in my practice for over 10 years. I believe that CBT is not only effective in practice but to apply to every day life. It’s helped many clients challenge reoccurring thoughts and manage their anxiety. Together we will use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to assist with changing your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressful life.
