I have discovered that every client I see has the same goals. You want to feel better! In a collaborative, supportive, and professional environment, this is possible. I see clients who feel shame, guilt, confusion, grief, anger, hopelessness, and those with high levels of stress and anxiety. I graduated with my Master's in Counseling from Spring Arbor University in 2019. I bring a wealth of life experience to help those who are struggling. I welcome the opportunity to build trust in a professional relationship to help you feel better.

Therapist

I approach therapy with respect, curiosity, and a bit of humor. I offer trauma-informed care which has led me to work with people who have gone through hard times and survived. I earned my master’s degree from Michigan State University and have stayed in the East Lansing area since then, working in local residential treatment facilities for teens and in an outpatient intensive treatment program with adults. I have spent the last 15 years working with adults in crisis, whether that is temporary situations like relationship issues or more chronic conditions.

I’m a PhD licensed clinical psychologist dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional well-being. In therapy, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can feel understood, heard, and empowered to move forward at your own pace. My goal is to help you not only manage symptoms, but also build together the foundation for lasting emotional well-being. I often integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based interventions, while maintaining a warm, nonjudgmental space for personal growth. My focus is on helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping strategies, and foster meaningful, lasting change.
