I'm a clinical social worker in Grand Rapids, Mi. I received my Master of Social Work degree from Western Michigan University and my Master of Divinity degree from Western Theological Seminary and have 19 years of experience providing professional care and counseling.

My clinical experience includes working with individuals and couples ranging from young adulthood to older adulthood. I'm licensed to practice psychotherapy in the state of Michigan.
I help clients who are experiencing issues related to marriage (I've completed Gottman Method Couples Therapy Level 2 Training), depression, anxiety, OCD, stress, relationships, life transitions, self-esteem, narcissism, family conflict, social skills, grief/loss, dementia, caregiving, and spirituality. I'm also certified to administer cognitive assessments.
