Hello, we can all use a listening ear every now and then. I am a compassionate licensed professional counselor with an unwavering commitment to optimizing individual growth. I have over ten years of experience serving youth, teenagers, adults and families within the school and community setting. The areas of therapeutic focus include academic achievement, anxiety, self-esteem, grief, post-secondary transitions, career planning, anger management, and interpersonal/family relationships.
My Master’s Degree is from the University of Detroit Mercy with specializations in school and community counseling. My approach to counseling is an eclectic blend of Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am also trained in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Every person has traveled a unique road in their life, be it a young child or a seasoned adult. I understand that counseling is not a one-size-fits-all, so collaboration is essential in developing a treatment plan that is suitable for your goals and emotional growth. I want to work with you as you travel down your road and make adjustments that are designed to help you achieve your goals and growth potential.
You have already begun the work to achieving your goals by seeking counseling, I commend you for taking this first step. Everyone needs a form of support in the journey of life. I will be honest with you as well as fair, supportive, and confidential. I believe in telling a person what they need to hear, even when it is not always what that person wants to hear to achieve goals. I look forward to meeting with you to develop strategies that will support you on your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
