About me
Hello! I’m glad you are here!
I’m a Licensed Masters Social Worker (LMSW) in the state of Michigan. I earned my Master’s degree from Michigan State University and have been supporting individuals and families for the past eight years.
I work with adults, caregivers, and children. I do this by providing support that fosters growth, healing, and connection. With children and caregivers, I focus on strengthening their relationship and building regulation and understanding together. I support teens in navigating the challenges that come with adolescence, including school, peer relationships, and new experiences. For adults, I offer guidance through life transitions, relationship challenges, and the journey toward creating the life you envision. My specialties include Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT: kids age 6-17), Early Childhood Mental Health Specialist and Motivational Interviewing.
I am ready to help you identify what your needs are and set up a road map together on how to get there!
