Hello, I have dedicated more than 15 years of my life serving children, adolescents, adults & families across several counties in the State of Michigan. Throughout my journey I have served in many roles including frontline practitioner, therapist, program coordinator, mid/high level director, & Chief Executive Officer. I have done this work across several systems including Juvenile Justice, Child Welfare, Mental Health, Substance Abuse, & Crisis Intervention. The experience of serving across these several systems has always led me back to my primary passion which is to work with resilient individuals. My therapeutic approach adheres to a focus in cognitive behavioral therapy rooted in strength based methods utilizing reality therapy & the recovery model to acquire a productive meaningful life. I have provided extensive therapy and training/coaching with countless individuals with the focus being on obtaining emotional intelligence, adequate life coping skills, defeating situational depression, anger management & de-escalation, & internal/external conflict resolution. My counseling style is eclectic & versatile, & I adapt to the individual needs & desires of the person that I am working with. If you are looking for a inviting, nurturing & safe place to be empowered then I am the counselor for you. Take the 1st step & I look forward to working with you!
