I am a licensed professional counselor specializing in individual and family psychotherapy, and maintain a private practice in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Due to COVID-19, I am primarily doing Telehealth sessions in order to comply with the Governor's executive orders and to keep my clients as safe as possible.
With over 25 years experience as a clinician specializing in the treatment of anxiety and depression, I am currently serving as a private practitioner working with a broad spectrum of clients. Among my areas of expertise are the treatment of panic attacks and generalized anxiety (in both adults and older teens), depression, sexual abuse trauma as well as relationship issues. I have worked with numerous individuals and families struggling with parenting and conflict issues and also with individuals seeking to move beyond painful family history and life experiences.
I deeply enjoy my work and find the opportunity to work collaboratively with clients toward real change and the successful resolution of symptoms that hinder a rich quality of life very rewarding. I look forward to the chance to talk with you further.
