About Me

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in the State of Michigan and certified to provide EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I believe the most important aspect of therapy is trust and a mutual respectful relationship. In order to build a solid foundation, I like to start out therapy by spending time building trust and getting acquainted with each other prior to diving into anything deep. Afterwards, I prefer to work collaboratively in a non-structured format. I enjoy the spontaneity and creativity that comes as a result of freely conversing together. Along the way, I incorporate teaching skills, providing tools/resources, engaging through EMDR, and incorporating mindfulness, somatic exercises, and inner child work.
