About

I graduated with a Master’s of Social Work from Western Michigan University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I have spent the last 8 years of my professional career working with adolescents and adults from all different backgrounds, races, genders, faiths, abilities, and values. I’ve spent time working with refugees and unaccompanied minors, Persons Living with HIV (PLWH), the Dept. of Human Services, and in various inpatient mental health hospital units. We may be a good fit if you are seeking support with anxiety, depression, trauma, social difficulties, or interpersonal conflict.

My social work practice’s foundation lies in Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but also incorporates components of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Collaborative Problem Solving. Therapy is not one size fits all! I believe in person-centered and trauma-informed approaches.

Thank you for taking the first step in your therapy journey and your willingness to involve me in the process! Please feel free to request a free 15 minute consultation to see if we are a good match!
