My approach is eclectic and includes cognitive-behavioral, paradoxical, empathic listening and family of origin work. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs, working to find a pace that both challenges you to reach the goals you desire to achieve, while also helping you to feel heard, understood and as comfortable as possible. It takes a great deal of courage to reach out for help in order to have a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change.

About Me I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice as a therapist for over twenty years. Prior to joining BetterHelp, I served in the U. S. Military as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Commissioned Officer. After retiring from the military, I began my second career with the Department of Veteran’s Affairs as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My practice areas include working with clients experiencing a broad range of Mental Health issues, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship/marital and family problems, work-related stress, and interest in improving self-esteem, health and lifestyle, and quality of life issues. My approach to online counseling is grounded in the belief that we are each trying to do our best (given our genetics, family training, and current circumstances). However, we tend to get stuck in certain emotional patterns, thought patterns, and behavioral patterns. In order to help with this “stuckness,” I utilize a combination of evidence-based treatments including, Humanistic and CognitiveTherapies. All of this occurs within a safe online counseling environment creating a trusting relationship that we will build over time. Please know that I am committed to giving you quality care and protecting your privacy and I will do my best to help you achieve the goals that you came to BetterHelp to resolve. My previous clients found their online counseling sessions to be very helpful in addressing whatever presenting issues that they have chosen to discuss in counseling. I look forward to meeting with you!

Hi :) I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Michigan with nine years of experience walking alongside adults through some of life’s heaviest seasons. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, Borderline Personality Disorder, substance use concerns, family stress, self-harming behaviors, suicidal ideation, and significant trauma. While I have experience working with children and adolescents, my heart and passion are rooted in helping adults make sense of their stories, regulate their emotions, and build lives that feel steady and meaningful. My counseling style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I believe you are the expert on your own life — even if right now it doesn’t feel that way. Therapy with me is not about judgment or rigid advice; it’s about slowing down, getting curious, and building practical tools that help you feel more grounded and in control. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based approaches, solution-focused strategies, and concrete coping skills to support emotional regulation and growth. I have additional training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which allow us to process trauma and intense emotions in ways that are structured, supportive, and manageable. Together, we create goals that are realistic, measurable, and aligned with the life you want. Growth takes courage. You don’t have to do it alone. I would be honored to support you in becoming your most grounded and authentic self.
