Borderline Personality (BPD) Therapists in Michigan

Life comes with many challenges and sometimes even great pain, yet I believe in the power of shared experience and application of research-based interventions to help you feel balanced, empowered, and capable of moving forward toward your goals. I focus on working with adults and adolescents experiencing self harm, suicide ideation, depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, co-occurring disorders, stage of life changes, grief, stress, and anger management. In addition, I specialize in helping individuals and family systems affected by the symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder.

Sometimes life can be overwhelming. Strong emotions can lead you to do things that get in the way of living the life you want. Depression keeps you from getting out of bed, anger has you fighting with those we love most and anxiety can leave you feeling almost paralyzed. Know that you don't have to go through it alone. I'm here to help and we can create positive change in your life. Just give me a call.

Life certainly isn't easy. Every one of us no matter who we are needs help at one time or another. Whether you are faced with an unexpected tragedy, terrible unforeseen circumstances, trouble coping with the stresses of daily life, struggling with despair of depression, anxiety due to juggling work/life/school/family, trauma, or handling a tumultuous relationship, the truth is, we've all been there. Why? Because we are human. You deserve to be happy and healing is our first step. Ready for change? Let's talk!

Do you experience moods that you have trouble understanding and / or controlling? Do your thoughts or emotions make it challenging to thrive in relationships, work, home, or just life in general? I understand that it can be difficult to cope and enjoy life with these symptoms, and can often be challenging to navigate the healing journey alone. I am a passionate therapist with a specialization in Anxiety, BPD, and mood disorders.

As a Master’s level clinician I strive to help clients improve their lives and learn new skills, techniques, ways of viewing themselves, and the world around them in a way that may reduce pain and suffering. I frequently use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) to help empower and guide individuals in their healing journey. I believe we are all capable of finding relief, strength, and a new way of perceiving ourselves and our environment, despite the difficult and unique challenges we face.

Finding someone that you feel comfortable being vulnerable with is often a challenge. As a counselor, I encourage you to be your authentic self and fully express your feelings. I will provide a safe space free of judgment in which you can explore your experiences and deepen your understanding of yourself. I often utilize humor, education, and warmth in sessions. My goal is to develop a holistic understanding of your worldview. I want to help you learn how to work with your brain, not against it.

Our focus is to offer hope, help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. We achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan to help you build a life worth living.

When speaking with people about finding a therapist, I like to compare the process to finding the right hairdresser or making a new friend: If someone doesn’t match what you’re looking for or help you envision and plan for a healthier or more fulfilling life, then move on to the next one! Therapy is very personal, and I take a person-centered approach. My own experiences as a survivor of postpartum mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) - as well as firsthand knowledge of and experience in coping with family adjustment issues and addiction in loved ones – provide me the insight needed to have meaningful sessions with my clients.

I believe that every individual travels their own path and that no two paths look exactly the same. I am here to both walk your path with you and serve as a tour guide along the way. I thrive working with clients who are seeking this journey and looking to build a relationship that will assist them in gaining insight, skills and passion to achieve their most fulfilling life. Client's who are struggling with borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, self-harm, interpersonal struggles, adjustment difficulties, addictions, grief and loss, and trauma are well-served by my experience and skill set.

My ideal client is someone who wants to make steps to change their life for the better. What "better" looks like depends on their needs, and we will work together to find it. They would be someone who needs a helping hand and support to reach their goals and get through life's difficult times. This person may be seeking out therapy to find support that they don't have in their life already or to bolster their existing support system.

I utilize a number of different skills to best fit your individual needs. I am DBT informed, meaning I have the skills to work with individuals who may feel their emotions very intensely. I believe that anyone can benefit from therapy when they find the "right fit" therapist.
