Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Detroit, MI

Hello and welcome.

I’m a licensed therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families across a range of settings—including colleges, group practices, healthcare systems, and now in my private practice. My clinical foundation includes seven years of graduate training (MS and PhD), and I began my career as a social worker in non-profit LGBT health and hospital inpatient care.

I specialize in trauma-informed care and work with people navigating depression, anxiety, and overwhelming stress.

I typically work with clients long-term, building a therapeutic relationship grounded in warmth, honesty, and trust. I’m easy to talk to, and I invite collaboration and transparency in every session—believing that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered.

I work with children and teens (ages 7+), young adults, adults, couples, families, and relationship partners. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or navigating challenges in your relationships, I’m here to help you move toward a more connected and fulfilling life.

I received my Bachelor’s (BA)in Criminal Justice (with a minor in Psychology) and Master’s degree in Counseling (MA) from Central Michigan University. After graduation, I started working with Community Mental Health, where I expanded my trainings and certifications. Since working with CMH I have been able to work with a large population of individuals with different challenges such as substance use, bereavement, trauma, domestic violence, family matters, and life goals. I am certified in DBT and DBT PE. I specialize in Behavioral Health, Personality Disorders, and Trauma Therapy. I have experience working with all ages from school age to geriatric clients.

Life can be challenging, and in those moments we may lose touch with our true selves. Reaching out for support takes courage and is an important first step. With over 18 years of experience, my approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s needs. I work primarily with adults using an integrative approach that includes Psychodynamic Therapy, CBT, EMDR, and Mindfulness. I have extensive experience supporting individuals in creative and caregiving fields, helping them reconnect with themselves, build resilience, and find balance. I also work with adult children of caregivers who struggled with substance abuse and mental health issues such as Borderline and Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
