Approach

My approach to therapy is a person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and choice/reality therapy (CT/RT) perspective. I routinely use motivational interviewing and self-reflection methods to encourage and facilitate the client's growth and development. Because I firmly believe in the power of the methods I use with others, I humbly remain in my personal growth development by regularly expanding my knowledge with research-based therapeutic methods with a design to meet the needs of many within this diverse and continuously evolving society. I believe that together, we can open the door to an improved you.

Professional Counselor

I am a National Certified (NCC# 1732823) Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC# 6401224388) in the State of Michigan. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), certification #285-1991, and a Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS) Certification #295302. I hold certifications and professional training in other research-based methods. I provide clinical supervision for student master practitioners and industrial/organizational consultation and have served as a teaching assistant in the field of counseling.

Experience

My experience includes support for high-risk adolescent girls who have experienced trauma from human trafficking, substance abuse, physical, mental, and verbal abuse, as well as abandonment, displacement, and other traumatic circumstances. I have extensive professional experience working with adults and adolescents diagnosed with intellectual developmental disabilities and other comorbidities. Additionally, my experience as a Mental Health Clinician consists of diverse situations, which include help and support for those who struggle with comorbid disorders, which include grief/bereavement, PTSD, Bipolar disorders, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety and panic disorders, anger or behavioral issues, severe mental illnesses, and career-related difficulties. For some, they simply need an empathetic ear to help them navigate the nuances of life.

Education

I earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, specializing in Forensic Counseling and Career Counseling from Walden University in Minneapolis, Minnesota. As a Walden University Alumni, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision (CES), specializing in Addictions Counseling, with an expected graduation year of 2027.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
