Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Dearborn, MI

I offer a judgment-free space where we can work together toward your mental health goals. In our work, we will not just talk through the problems, concerns, or challenges bringing you to therapy. We will also focus on practical tools that can help change how you experience those situations and support you in moving toward a healthier version of yourself. I use a blend of evidence-based treatment approaches that I tailor to each client’s unique needs and goals.

I earned my LMSW from Grand Valley State University and have 17 years of experience across a wide range of mental health settings, including outpatient care, the emergency department, inpatient treatment, and partial hospitalization, along with many other levels of care in between. My additional training includes trauma-informed care, suicide risk assessment and safety planning, and DBT. Clients can expect me to meet them where they are while being empowering, transparent, direct, and focused on helping them reach their treatment goals.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience partnering with adolescents, adults of all ages and families. I am bilingual so I offer therapy in english and spanish.

I am a mental health professional who integrates evidence based practices with a Christ Like worldview to support healing, growth, restoration and transformation. True wellness and stability includes all aspects of the person that includes the mind, body, and spirit, and I strive to create a safe, grace-filled space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I value providing services to help individuals navigate the the challenging journey of life and offer a non judgemental space where clients can be open, vulnerable and honest about any challenges that they may be facing.

I spent 20 years working toward this moment, and I bring that same patience and care to everyone I work with. My background spans family nursing, somatic psychology, and psychiatric care across settings from detox units to community mental health. I specialize in supporting adults through substance use and alcohol recovery, depression, PTSD, and trauma, including people whose mental health has been shaped by chronic pain or physical hardship. My approach is collaborative and unhurried. You set the pace, and we build from there.

I've been a therapist since 2015 and have worked with all kinds of people, from those facing homelessness in Detroit to curious five-year-olds learning about their feelings. I’m trained in Gottman Couples Therapy, have training in infertility mental health both in the US and abroad, and am working toward a perinatal mental health certification. I like to mix proven methods with warmth and a good sense of humor, so you'll always feel at ease. Helping you find your own strength and grow is what inspires me, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

I have worked in the Social Work field for about 10 years and found my specialty and passion in therapy. I am a compassionate and non-judgmental therapist who enjoys working one-on-one with individuals seeking help. I specialize in anxiety, depression, self-harm behaviors, trauma, family conflict, postpartum, and LGBTQ+ issues.

Seeking therapy can be anxiety provoking. But it can also create welcome change. When I initially speak with clients, I want to hear their story; where they have been and where they want to go. As a team, I want to help them get there. I see the relationship between a client and therapist as a collaboration of efforts. We create a team based approach, where I can help a client "connect the dots" to gain a better understanding of their every day life experiences and challenges.

I graduated from MSU with my BSW, and then received my MSW from U-M. I have been practicing for about 30 years. I specialize in anxiety/depression, parent guidance, grief, coping, trauma, relationship issues and life transitions.
