I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist (LMFT) and I have been in practice since 2014. I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Michigan University as well a specialty certification in addictions. My clinical experience includes private practice, adult outpatient mental health treatment, couple and family therapy, eating disorders, crisis services, and clinical director of a children’s outpatient mental health facility. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe and therapeutic environment that will promote growth, positivity, and healing. I also provide a judgement free, yet challenging space that will facilitate comfort and self-awareness as you progress. While I may use a combination of different modalities to fit your specific needs, my formal training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Treatment, and Strength Based Therapy. Reaching out for support is the start of achieving your goals and enjoying a more fulfilled life. I recognize that starting therapy can be a scary process and opening up to someone you don’t know can be uncomfortable. The process of working with a professional can be the spark you need to create the joy and success you desire. This process will open the door for therapeutic healing and success in achieving your treatment goals. My goal is to meet you where you are at and collaborate with you to find the most appropriate pathway for wellness. I look forward to working with you!
