About
I have a PhD in Psychology and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for over two decades. I am easy going in an effort to provide a safe and secure counseling atmosphere. As a result of my years of experience in working with clients from an array of cultural backgrounds, I provide a non judgmental atmosphere that supports my clients in their quest for healing and growth. I am able to identify patterns of behaviors that may be based on childhood or adult experiences and provide insight that can assist clients in making desired changes. I have worked in my own private practice and also contracted with counseling agencies. I use Psychodynamic Therapy in an effort to assist clients in exploring childhood experiences that may be impacting current or ongoing problems and behaviors; with a Solution Focused lens that also allows clients to identify their own strengths. I have worked with teens and adults as individual clients, as well as couples and families. I look forward to our starting our journey with you so please to contact me for counseling services.
I grew up and continue to live in Southeast Michigan.
In addition to my work as a counselor, I teach as an adjunct faculty member at two universities in the Counseling curriculum. I retired from the State of Michigan, Child and Family Services, after 35 years of services. I enjoy reading, watching Law & Order, traveling. Most of all I love being a grandmother.
