Therapy to heal and connect with your true Self
Available online across Michigan
About Me
I’ve worked in mental health for over 10 years and offer an eclectic approach to therapy. Bringing curiosity and compassion to each session, I aim to help clients build a caring and healthy relationship with themselves. Common concerns brought to therapy include feeling stuck in old patterns, anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. I also specialize in the treatment of trauma.
If you are interested in learning more about your internal world, healing old wounds, need support getting through a difficult time or simply want to reconnect with yourself, therapy can help. Using the healing modalities of IFS, EMDR, Brainspotting, and mindfulness practices, we can work together to identify and bring care to tender places.
Life is a journey. I’d be honored to join you on yours.
Types of Therapy
Internal Family Systems is a non-pathologizing psychotherapy model that believes each of us is a system of parts. Have you ever had to make a difficult decision and thought, "A part of me wants one thing and this other part of me wants another?”
Through IFS, we can build relationships with our varied parts, learn about their roles and what they are trying to do for us and help them heal. By connecting with our true Self, we can cultivate more compassion, curiosity, calm, clarity, courage, confidence, creativity and connectedness.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an evidence based treatment that can be helpful in addressing a variety of issues including anxiety, depression and PTSD. EMDR utilizes bilateral stimulation, like eye movements or tapping, to process memories, and emotions and beliefs associated with memories.

Brainspotting is a thereapeutic technique that uses specific eye positions, called “brainspots,” to access and process difficult emotions and traumas, by tapping into the brains natural ability to heal itself.
