About
We all need a balance between body, mind, and spirit. As people, we need wellness strategies that
shift and evolve as we grow. My first goal is to be present with you and listen without an agenda to
give you the attention and understanding that I believe we all need.
After listening, I follow a person-Âcentered/strength-Âbased approach to therapy, which means that I
focus on your needs and tailor our therapeutic goals to move you where you want to go within our
treatment plan. Your needs are the points on the compass, and my job is to help you move where
you need to be. I guide through questions, encouragement, and brainstorming options for clients to
begin to make necessary change.
I am a licensed counselor with the State of Michigan with a Master’s degree from Central Michigan
University and special training in EMDR and Anxiety Based Disorders. My specialties also include
mindfulness, cognitive behavior therapy ÂÂincluding exposure with response prevention ÂÂas well as
motivational interviewing and family and parenting issues.
