Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


For more than 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they work toward healing, growth, and change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor, and Substance Abuse Professional, I bring both deep clinical knowledge and a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to therapy.

I specialize in helping clients navigate life’s most personal challenges—including relationship and intimacy concerns, life transitions, grief and loss, trauma, and mental health struggles. I also provide substance abuse treatment, DOT/SAP evaluations, and recovery support using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Reality Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, the Duluth Model, and the Matrix Model.

I have a special commitment to serving Black communities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, people living with HIV, re-entry populations, sex workers, and youth facing challenges. I understand how personal, cultural, and systemic factors shape each person’s story, and I create a safe, affirming space where clients feel truly seen and heard.

In our sessions, you can expect a respectful, judgment-free environment where your voice matters. I believe therapy works best as a partnership—we’ll set goals together, explore what’s holding you back, and develop practical strategies you can use in daily life a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re seeking support for a specific issue or simply want to invest in your personal growth, I’m here to help you take that next step.

You deserve to feel heard, understood, and supported.

Life can bring challenges that leave you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, relationship difficulties, or substance use concerns, therapy can provide a safe and supportive space to explore your experiences, gain clarity, and create meaningful change.

As a Licensed Social Worker, I bring a diverse background working with individuals and families facing a wide range of life challenges. My approach to therapy is person-centered, compassionate, and holistic, recognizing that your experiences, strengths, and goals are uniquely your own.

Therapy is about you, your journey, and the life you want to create. Our work together moves at your pace, with an emphasis on building trust, strengthening self-esteem, developing healthy coping skills, and finding greater balance in your life. You can expect a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can speak openly, feel genuinely heard, and be yourself.

I believe meaningful growth begins with connection. Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or overly clinical. It can be a genuine, down-to-earth conversation that helps you see things differently, recognize your strengths, and discover new possibilities. My goal is for you to leave our sessions feeling heard, supported, and empowered with greater insight and practical tools to move forward.

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Wherever you are in your journey, you are welcome here. Together, we can work toward greater self-understanding, emotional well-being, and a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and true to you.
