About Me
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience helping adults overcome trauma, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic, grief, and life transitions. I believe healing occurs within a safe, collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel understood, respected, and empowered. My approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to each individual's needs. I integrate EMDR with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based approaches to help clients process distressing experiences, reduce emotional suffering, and move toward the lives they want to live. I enjoy working with professionals, healthcare providers, executives, and others seeking meaningful, lasting change. Both telehealth or in person (Portage, MI) available.
Education & Experience
I earned my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and am a fully licensed psychologist in Michigan, with additional licensure in multiple states through telehealth (IN, OH, NJ, PA, VA, GA, KY, NC). I have over 25 years of clinical and healthcare leadership experience and have specialized training in PTSD, trauma treatment, anxiety disorders, OCD, substance use disorders, and adult ADHD. In addition to EMDR, My clinical practice focuses on evidence-based treatment for adults seeking high-quality psychological care.
