My goal as a counselor is to promote the healthy personal growth of the adolescents twelve years of age and older, adults, and couples. As a counselor with 30 years of experience I’ve worked with individuals struggling with some of society’s most pressing issues as well as help people with situational calamity that all people experience one time or another. Areas often dealt with in an individual setting are: adjustment difficulties due to loss or change, communication skills, self-esteem building and developmental issues, and relationship challenges. I also help people with despair, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, trauma recovery, challenges related to ADHD symptoms, relationship challenges, school issues and more. I come along side individuals and couples to help them gain better understanding of their attitudes, motives and behaviors.

I received my Master of Arts degree in Counseling from Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan.

I use a variety of evidence based therapeutic modalities. The uniqueness of client circumstances and life challenges guide this process. I used CBT and have specializations in Gestalt techniques as well as being certified to use EMDR.
