About

I am licensed in Michigan with 25 years of professional work experience that includes home settings, school settings, and community settings. I also developed my skills using remote treatment formats over the last three years.

I have a clinical-focused MSW. Over the years I have utilized a number of models and approaches, allowing me to better match my approach with each individual I have worked with. I have experience in helping clients with family conflicts, work conflicts, relationship conflicts, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, & anger management/emotional regulation.

I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
