Therapists in Michigan

Welcome! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life transitions and challenges. I earned my degree from Western Michigan University and have extensive experience working with children, families, and adults who have experienced trauma. My approach centers on creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their feelings and experiences openly. Drawing on my professional training and life experience, I strive to build genuine connections that empower individuals to heal, grow, and move toward greater wellness.

I work with young adults and adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by life’s challenges. Many of my clients struggle with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, stress, or difficult transitions such as ruptured relationships, parenthood, perimenopause, or grief. They often come to me looking for support, hope, motivation, and ways to feel more grounded and purposeful in daily life. It's important to me to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to feel deeply heard and supported, while also being gently encouraged to grow. While my approach to your care is personalized and collaborative, I draw from evidence-based methods like Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), DBT, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to help you build tools you can actually use beyond our sessions. I bring not only knowledge, but also humility and lived experience to this work. My goal is always to co-create a space where you will feel safe, respected, and empowered. Together, we’ll focus on managing distress, learning about emotions, building resilience, and reconnecting with what matters most to you whether that’s enjoying your relationships, finding balance, or reclaiming joy.

A little bit about me: I was born and raised in Northwest Michigan, I’m an avid animal lover, and sourdough connoisseur! I earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan with a major of Women’s Studies in 2018 and an MSW from Wayne State University in 2020. I have an innate understanding of the complexities of life and the overwhelm that can result. This understanding has created in me a passion for helping individuals learn and obtain the appropriate tools to achieve their full potential and overcome these challenges. I look forward to working with you!
