I believe that one’s courage to seek counseling is a big step in the healing process. As a counselor, I strive to provide a positive, supportive, and empathetic environment. I support my client’s growth on their path to obtaining personal goals. I am honored to be able to be a part of this journey to help others in a compassionate and caring way.

I received my bachelor’s in business administration with a minor in Biology from Oakland University. From there I worked in a marketing and sales management role leading sales teams throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. I graduated with my Masters in Counseling from Siena Heights University.

My background is rich with leadership roles that include facilitation of studies, group activities, training, and personal mentoring. In my graduate studies and beyond, I continue to gain insight and knowledge about the many approaches to clinical mental health and how I will apply my knowledge to best help my clients become the most whole, healed, fantastic versions of themselves. 

I believe that while the world is full of unknowns, everyone has the power to write or re-write their story with the help of the many therapy methods available to us. While each person processes things uniquely, there is a path to healing for everyone.  Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Narrative therapy are two approaches that allow us to harness our power in a very real and tangible way that applies to our circumstances right now. 

I feel it is a privilege to work with individuals in all walks of life with different life experiences and mental health backgrounds. I enjoy working with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, relational struggles, life transitions and decision making, trauma, grief and loss, marriage/couples counseling, self-confidence, substance use and beyond.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, playing and watching sports, both relaxing and exercising in nature, hands on projects and art activities like painting, music, reading, and continuing my education. If a client is interested in incorporating faith/religion into their counseling sessions, I would be honored to help facilitate that.
