With over 30 years of experience in the mental health field, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and practical support. As a fully licensed therapist, I bring both professional expertise and genuine care to every session.
Throughout my career, I have worked with people from many different backgrounds, helping them address issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. My approach is centered on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.
What clients often appreciate most is my ability to truly listen and meet them where they are. I believe healing and growth happen when people feel supported and understood. My role is to help clients gain clarity, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen resilience, and rediscover their personal strengths.
Over the years, I have seen how powerful change can be when someone is given the right tools, encouragement, and guidance. My experience allows me to draw from a wide range of therapeutic approaches to best meet each client’s unique needs.
My commitment is simple: to walk alongside my clients on their journey toward healing, growth, and a more balanced, fulfilling life.
I’m a Clinical Therapist with 18 years of experience, helping people work through some of life’s hardest moments. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Michigan State University, and throughout my career I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and walks of life.
I’ve worked with individuals struggling with substance use and recovery, depression, anxiety, stress, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and many other issues. Over the years, I’ve learned that therapy isn’t about having all the answers or being told what you should do. Life is complicated, and sometimes we simply get stuck. We can know what we want to change but still have a hard time figuring out where to start.

With over ten years of experience as a clinical social worker, I’ve had the honor of supporting people who, like you, were unsure or nervous about starting therapy—and together, from tufts to tulips, we’ve created real and lasting change.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked in hospitals, EAPs, crisis lines, and community mental health settings, offering care to veterans, people experiencing homelessness, refugees, company executives, youth, the elderly, and everyone in between.

Kindness, empathy, and respect are the foundation of my work, and I strive to make sure you feel seen, heard, and valued from day one.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right couples therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Detroit
Finding couples therapists in Detroit starts with naming what you and your partner want to work on together. That may include communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, parenting disagreements, or deciding what comes next in the relationship. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for a licensed marriage and family therapist or a therapist who lists couples counseling, marriage counseling, the Gottman Method, or emotionally focused therapy in their profile.
In Detroit, finding one therapist who fits both partners can take a few practical steps. Consider whether an office location is easy to reach from home or work, whether virtual sessions fit your shared schedule, and whether the therapist offers times that work for both of you. Provider bios can help you understand how a therapist structures couples therapy, how they describe their communication style, and whether they offer a brief consultation to assess fit before the first session.
Couples therapy in Detroit can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
