Empowering

I have over 20 years of experience in helping clients unlearn emotional and physical pain to make it possible to reconnect with yourself and others in a safe and empowering way. I create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere to help make therapy approachable and encourage feedback from clients as to what will help them feel most with the process of therapy. After discussing together your goal, we will decide on a the right treatment plan. I use Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques to address each client's unique perspectives.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Clients often tell me they feel deeply seen and validated in our work together. If you're looking for support and answers for your distress, I’d be honored to support your healing. Virtual video sessions are available throughout Michigan.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Review from Client: "She is a phenomenal therapist. She's easy to talk to and open up. She lets me get things off my chest and then helps me to understand why I feel the way I do and how to change some of those feelings. It is a true blessing to have found a therapist that I can connect to and open up to." Verified client, age 45-54 Review shared after session 6 with Millicent

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My techniques work best for clients that are ready for active change with their situations, willing to take the risk to try to understand why it has been so hard to change in the past and invest the time and energy that it take for real transformation. Also, we have fun and laugh along the way!

My treatment methods

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. The goal is to desensitize the memory, reducing its emotional intensity and negative impact. The therapist also guides the individual in reprocessing the memory, allowing them to develop new insights and perspectives.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is an approach that focuses on building solutions rather than dwelling on problems. It's goal-oriented and collaborative, emphasizing positive change by encouraging clients to focus on their strengths and identify past successes. Instead of exploring all the root causes of issues, SFBT helps clients envision their desired future and develop strategies to achieve it.

I love how she uses the talk therapy like a challenging conversation. She helps untangle the problems that be with the back and forth conversation. She is very personable and she makes it feel like two friends just having a conversation. So happy to have her!

I felt I was well matched with my provider based on their experience and expertise in relation to what I was needing help with. After my first session, I could tell they were authentic and helpful. Millicent listened, and really was driven to help me find mechanisms and tools to improve my mental health.
