Therapist

Virtual • Village of Clarkston, 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.
