Welcome! Thank you for taking the time to read about me. I am excited to begin this journey with you. I can see how taking care of your mental well-being is important to you and I applaud you for taking the first steps to figuring out what you want to achieve in your life. I truly hope that you find the help you are looking for. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan and some of my experience includes working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and identity issues.
I am focused on the holistic needs of all my clients and my clinical approach is Person-Centered. I use Strength-Based, Solution Focused, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
My approach in therapy is to help individuals achieve the changes he/she wants to see in life. I believe in setting collaborative goals with my clients while also empowering them to use their strengths to overcome difficulties. Working on social, personal, career development, and anything else that may come up is part of the process. The goal is to develop coping skills, social skills and build self confidence to enhance a healthy lifestyle. Rest assured that you will find a safe place to discuss concerns or issues that are negatively impacting your life. We will work together throughout the therapeutic process. I strive to assist you in reaching your goals by utilizing various creative interventions in counseling that will be most helpful to you. Such interventions may include aroma therapy, guided imagery and relaxation techniques. I believe that a holistic approach to therapy works best when focused on both the mind and body. Mindfulness practices are important components of the therapeutic process and I will work with you to figure out ways in which therapy can be most beneficial to YOU.
My goal is to help individuals become self- aware and to take the steps needed to move toward change. This can all be accomplished through encouragement, challenging, and helping my clients find clarity in their lives. I look forward to working with you!
