I was born and raised in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and after finishing graduate school at the University of Denver and receiving my MSW, I returned to Upper Michigan and began providing therapy for a diverse age population including children, adolescents, adults and couples as well as group therapy in 1995. I then moved to Virginia Beach where I contracted with the Dept of Defense providing family and individual therapy at different Naval Bases. I returned home after that time and set up a private practice where I continued to provide therapy for individuals, couples and families in my community until I started working at the VA Medical Center where I worked with veterans, caregivers and their families as a therapist as well as a case manager both in the hospital as well as on the home based team. I am now retired from the VA although I will be to continuing to use my education and trainings to hopefully work with you in this forum. You have already taken the first step to healing by exploring this site and the next step is taking the leap and scheduling the appointment. I hope that my commitment to taking this journey with you and reading a bit about what I may offer will encourage you to give therapy a try.

My style is client-centered, and my ultimate goal is to create a safe space for my clients to challenge themselves and grow into the best versions of themselves. I have been providing therapy in-person since 2006 and via tele-health since 2020. It's important to me that I can still work with clients even if the format has changed. Using video technology has increased the convenience for me and my clients and allows me to work with people who may be located in another state. I am a first-generation American with a big heart for animal rescue — just ask my dog and four cats. I have moved around a good bit and have lived in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Florida. Over the course of my career, I have worked in multiple settings with people from all walks of life and am comfortable helping people with a variety of concerns. As a mother to two small children, I can fully empathize with the demands and burdens placed on working parents today. It's hard to raise a family and meet obligations, and parents often feel as though they're falling short. I work with clients to help them through these feelings and give them tools they can apply in everyday situations. My professional training is in cognitive behavioral therapy. However, I like to tailor treatment based on each individual's needs, so I consider my approach to be more eclectic than anything else. Each client's situation is unique, and their treatment plan should reflect that. Work with me to become the best person you can be.

Do you seek guidance in your life at this time? Everyone has a story to tell and I'm here to listen to yours. We may not always be able to clearly see our options to manage stress, emotional pain and confusion, so beginning therapy is a great way to process these emotions and thoughts in a safe, caring and non-judgmental way. Perhaps your fears or worries about relationships, career, a sense of inadequacy or the need to be perfect are holding you back. Therapy helps to facilitate healing and growth. I welcome the opportunity to work with you to improve your sense of success and live your life to the fullest. I've been working with teens and adults for 20 years specializing in: trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, loss/grief, chronic illness and self esteem.

I'm a licensed MSW (master social worker) in Michigan. I use solution focused counseling to help you figure out what positive changes you'd like to make and what small changes you can start with. I enjoy working with a wide variety of people and concerns. Solution Focused Therapy is a very practical and effective form of counseling. Most of the clients who gravitate towards my services want to take action and start making changes right away. They don't want to just talk about their problems, they want to get ideas for specific things to do and move on with their lives. They don't want to be in counseling for years and want a counselor who appreciates that too.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Michigan rather than a city like Detroit?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Michigan from Grand Rapids to Warren! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Michigan.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?

Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
