Change can be wonderful but it can also create stress. I specialize in helping people to bring the parts of their lives into alignment and resolve competing demands of culture, gender, sexuality, career, religion, physical and mental self, and key relationships.

Everyone struggles at some point, and all have the capacity to grow, heal, and change. It has been my passion for 20 years to walk alongside hurting people and give them proven tools to overcome losses, challenges and pain, and to live better, happier lives.

I have over 30 years experience working with individuals, families, couples as well as children and teens. I have been told that I am a very warm and caring individual who is sensitive to the needs of others.

Counseling can be deeply personal and private work that delves into one's psyche and history for answers and solutions, or, a series of discussions about current problems that leads to solutions. I am available for both at my client's discretion.

I am a psychologist in private practice serving the Novi area. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with life transitions or challenges. Some examples would be completing homework, relating to others, or just adjusting to change.

I help adults, teens, and families struggling with depression, anxiety, addiction, behavioral issues (self-harm, anger management), and suicide. I provide crisis intervention, drug interventions, and rapid response. My goal is to help you end chaos and restore hope.

I work to meet needs by both listening and by drawing on research experience to provide helpful, practical solutions and insight. Many clients have expressed appreciation that I communicate with them in a clear, everyday manner. Let's work together towards healing.

Grief Steps is a spiritually based bereavement outreach center that provides grief support services through groups, individual and family counseling, educational seminars, and other resources. Grief is a Journey... that does not have to be taken alone!

I would like to help you become the architect of your own life. Effective therapy is more than talking about your problems with a nice person. It is deliberate and scientific. I am trained in multiple approaches to promote your healing and relief from pain.
