- LMSW
As a licensed therapist in Michigan, I bring 25 years of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions with empathy and expertise.
I specialize in working with older adults, women, and young professionals experiencing mood disorders, social anxiety, relationship difficulties, and personal growth obstacles. My approach is deeply collaborative, focusing on building self-love, improving communication skills, and healing from past emotional wounds.
My therapeutic work honors each individual's unique journey, offering supportive guidance through issues like caregiver stress, chronic illness, attachment challenges, and personal transformation. I create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and rediscover their inner strength.

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.
