Hello, I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in the state of Michigan. I graduated from Spring Arbor University with a Masters degree in Counseling. My background consists of working with individuals age 7yrs old and older, family counseling, Severely Impaired disorders, Couples, PTSD, Anxiety and more. Analyzing individuals as a "whole" and not only their mental issues helps the appreciation of the therapy experience for all that engage in my sessions. I believe in asking about your mental and physical health since my teaching has allowed the understanding of medical health has a definite impact on the mental health. I have also worked as a Special Education Teacher for 7yrs prior to gaining a Counseling license. I definitely enjoy what I do for a living because I enjoy helping others.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will go over the main issue that led you to ask for assistance with managing a particular problem. We will also gain an understanding of how my sessions are ran, which is open dialog.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Since I have taught Special Education for 7yrs, worked with families for 10yrs, worked with Michigan hospitals for 5yrs, I have an extensive knowledge for all types of mental illness, triggers and coping skills to help many situations. It's also very unique that every client I have worked with has told me "Thank you for being the 1st Counselor that actually listened to them instead of over talking."
