Psychotherapist
She/Her/Hers
As a therapist I work to create a safe space where individuals feel heard, supported, and guided. I offer psychotherapy to help people learn how to identify their emotions and respond to them in a healthy way instead of being overwhelmed by them. We work together to figure out what is causing stress and how to cope. We all want less stress, to feel hope, have a support system, and feel our life is worth living– I can help you build that.
I practice various evidence-based interventions, such as dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) and work with patients to identify what will work best.
I earned my bachelor’s degree in elementary education and my master’s degree in social work from the University of Michigan. My professional journey began in education, where I worked as a classroom teacher, researcher, and preschool director. My transition into the mental health field began in an administrative role in a substance abuse setting, where I gained insight into both addiction treatment and program management. Currently, I work as a therapist in a partial hospitalization setting, facilitating process groups and providing individual therapy for those facing mental health challenges that have stopped them from functioning with daily life.
