My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can rebuild self-trust, confidence, and resilience.
We are living in tender times. Many of us are undergoing internal shifts and personal transformations while the world at large is also shifting beneath our feet. Working together, we can find ways to cope creatively with life's many challenges. My work is inspired by each individual client’s unique potential for wholeness. I enjoy working with individuals on issues of gender, sexuality, relationships, intimacy, spirituality, wellness and authenticity. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly & aware. My other areas of competence include anxiety, depression, grief, and adjustment to life transitions. My counseling practice is informed by Hakomi and its principles of mindfulness, unity, body-mind connection, non-violence and organicity. Learning to accept what is and be in the present moment is more important than ever. My counseling approach includes person-centered, humanistic, strengths-based, trauma informed, depth psychology and cognitive behavioral. One of life’s great challenges is that we all encounter suffering and struggles along the way. And yet, I strongly believe that it is not only possible, but that it is every person’s birthright, to live a life full of meaning, joy and fulfillment. I look forward to working with you and supporting you on your personal journey of unfolding and healing.

Hi there! I am a clinician at Grounded in Growth, a Grand Rapids-based practice specializing in trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness. I work with young-adult and adult individual clients on issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, self-esteem, stress, and more. I help clients uncover deeply rooted beliefs that prohibit them from living how they desire. My style of therapy is compassionate, accepting, and mindful. My clients and I work together to enhance awareness and explore the interconnectedness between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and encourage exploration and understanding from a multicultural lens. My mission is to create a safe, inclusive, and brave space for you to grow into the truest version of yourself. This can be your time to truly shift into the person you've always known you could be, overcome what's in your way, and truly thrive in your life. It would be my honor to walk with you on your journey to a fulfilling, empowered life.
Hello! Therapy is a process of self discovery. The decision to seek therapy is a sign of strength and an indication that you are willing to invest in yourself! The clients with which I work best share the willingness to commit to the process of therapy and do the hard work. My goal for each session is to create a warm and inviting atmosphere where together we can explore and discover insights about your life, the root causes of stumbling blocks, and the means to help you heal, change, and grow. Whether you have lifelong problems or perhaps more current issues you are dealing with, I believe there is always a path available for change. Each person is the best expert of their own lives and brings a unique set of strengths that often go untapped. With the proper identification of the problem, uncovering the root of destructive patterns of behavior & thought, plus insight and education, clients get “unstuck” and are able to move forward in their lives.
Starting therapy is a huge step towards bettering yourself, and taking that leap of faith to begin this journey is the beginning stage of healing. I would be extremely privileged and feel so honored to walk alongside you during this journey. I will do my best to provide you with the skills and strategies that you are looking for in order to better your well-being. I take into account everyone’s individual backgrounds in order to develop the most effective treatment for you, and to allow you to feel safe and heard. I am a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor, and received my undergraduate degree in Social Work from Grand Valley State University, and my Master’s degree in Counseling Education with an emphasis in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Michigan University. In the past I have worked with clients ages 7 and up, who are struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other challenges. I believe that therapy can be a transformative experience; something that allows people to live their authentic and best lives, and helps us to develop coping skills to handle life’s toughest challenges. I practice therapy from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapeutic (CBT) approach. I strive to provide an empathetic environment for those who step into my office, and to provide a safe space where you can expect to feel heard and comfortable while working with me. I am always striving to learn more, so that I can best treat those who I work with!

Many mental health issues are related to a trauma response in the brain and body. Trauma is often conceptualized as one single event or experience that causes intense fear or distress. However, not all people who experience these kinds of events develop trauma symptoms, and many people who do experience trauma symptoms cannot identify a single event such as this. Another way to understand trauma symptoms is that they occur when an individual’s context overwhelms their nervous system’s ability to cope. This forces the nervous system to utilize strategies to try to bring the body back into balance. These strategies are usually useful or adaptive in the moment, but unhealthy and disruptive in the long run. The coping patterns can be related to addiction, disordered eating, the way we emotionally engage in relationships, or the chronic up-regulation (anxiety) or down-regulation (depression) of our nervous system. All are attempts to process the energy stored in the nervous system in response to stressors. Together we will utilize elements of mindfulness, somatic expression, Family Systems Theory, and Narrative therapy to develop new strategies to express emotion, regulate the nervous system, and communicate effectively with ourselves and with the people in our lives.
I am a graduate of the University of Michigan. With over 13 years of experience and a specialty in helping clients with PTSD, anxiety, depression and those who have survived catastrophic car accidents, I provide an empowering, individualized approach for each of my clients. I love to help my clients navigate meaningful changes in their lives and believe every day is an opportunity for personal growth. I enjoy working with diverse clients from a wide variety of backgrounds and am dedicated to strength-based and person-centered therapy in a safe and supportive environment. I am regularly asking for feedback from my patients. I use this feedback to improve treatment methods, guide therapist training and improve overall customer satisfaction. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking for friends and family, enjoying nature while hiking, traveling to discover new parts of the world and officiating wedding ceremonies.

As a visual artist who uses creative processes to support mental health, I work with those who gravitate towards writing, music, dance, and visual arts. My personal understanding of the creative process and how it can be adapted to support people emotionally and mentally comes into play as we work together to create a safe place for exploration. I especially love working with young adults who are defining their identity and dealing with anxiety and overwhelm during this transition. I look forward to seeing how your creativity can be used as a strength in your times of need. accepting virtual and in-person appointments.
