Hey there,
I BECAME A THERAPIST BECAUSE EVERYONE DESERVES A SPACE TO BE HEARD AND TO HEAL IN ALL SEASONS OF LIFE.
My goal as a therapist is to provide you a non-judgemental space for healing. I strive to provide a space that is laid back for clients to delve into any life struggles, learn new ways of coping, and laugh along the way.
I have over 6 years post- graduate experience as a therapist, having worked with diverse populations in settings in both Michigan and Florida.
I specialize in supporting children, teens, and young adults who are navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, PTSD, and more. My approach is strength-based, integrating evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Assessing and Managing Suicide Risk (AMSR), among others. I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet each individual’s unique needs. It would be my honor to walk alongside you in your therapeutic journey.
When not working, I love to travel near and far, whether it is somewhere on a cruise ship in the middle of nowhere or camping up north! I enjoy cooking, gardening, being in nature, and re-watching The Office over, and over again. I also love to spend time with family, friends and my best fur friend, Frankie. Frankie is a maltipoo and you can almost always find her right by my side
Education: I received my BAA in Human Development and Family Studies at Central Michigan University in 2015. Additionally, I graduated from Michigan State University in 2019 with honors with my Masters in Clinical Social Work (MSW).
