I am a Licensed Professional Counseling in Michigan. I have 14 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting concerns, career and educational challenges. I also have helped many people who have experienced physical trauma and abuse. My counseling style is supportive. I believe every individual is on their own journey and can benefit from the guidance and support of having a counselor to meet their highest level of potential and their individual goals. I believe in treating every individual with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach is Solution Focused to assist the individual make their own decisions and develop a solution with the support of their counselor. I will modify the treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

I would be happy to help you move forward in your life. I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I have a M.A. in Counseling and also a Master of Divinity degree, but I never superimpose my beliefs or convictions on anyone else, because that is not ethical. My aim is to help individuals and couples move forward in life in a consistent manner with their particular goals and values and convictions. As for experience, I have the least experience working with LGBTQ clients. For licensure I have the LPC, and for certification I have the CADC. As such, I am able to help individuals with issues of depression, severe anxiety, major life changes and losses, substance abuse issues, relationship issues, learning to be assertive and to have boundaries, closure for trauma and abuse, and helping individuals create a strategy for finding an ideal career. I draw on several different treatment approaches, but my foundation is the Cognitive-Behavioral approach, because it is proven that guarding the thoughts, avoiding assumptions, and learning to pause and reflect rather than just reacting is what helps people the most to be at peace with themselves, and to better handle the stressors that life throws at us. I look forward to working with you. Mostly I work with clients in the United States and Canada. But I am uniquely placed so that I can easily work with clients in the Philippines and Southeast Asia, Australia, Europe and the UK. So let's get going, and let's start working on what's most important to you. I look forward to hearing from you.
