- LMSW
I have a PhD and MSW degree and am licensed in Michigan with 19 years of professional work experience. My expertise is working with clients who are struggling through a period of feeling down, sad, or hopeless. I have additional experience working with those who are struggling through depression or thoughts of self-harm. I also have experience helping clients build motivation, self esteem, & confidence. I have a passion for working with people to overcome obstacles in their lives. I believe in meeting people where they are in their current circumstances, while supporting them to grow and thrive. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to provide support through that process.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
