Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a Michigan Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and nationally Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC). I have had clinical experience working with clients who experience trauma, loss and grief, disability, family issues, and body image challenges. I am a youth mental health first aid provider and trainer in adult mental health first aid response. I offer individual, child, and family counseling. I provide a holistic approach to counseling by addressing physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual needs. I ensure the highest quality care is provided through an integrative, client-centered approach. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques to include cognitive-behavioral, psychoeducational, trauma-informed, mindfulness, and solution-focused. I promote personal growth by providing an atmosphere that is safe, accepting, and direct. I will hear you, validate your experience, and strive for your personal empowerment. If I am not the person to work with you, I will refer you to local area expertise where you may find a better-matched clinician.

Many people ask whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, research and clinical experience indicate that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person care.
One of the main benefits is convenience and flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that suits them best – video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to incorporate therapy into a busy schedule.
Online therapy supports a wide range of typical issues and allows people to access professional support from wherever they are located. If a person feels a different match would be better, it is also possible to switch therapists to find the right fit.
