EMDR Therapists in Ada, MI

Are you working with a little anxiety (or really maybe alot actually) or depression? Encountered trauma? Are you in the perinatal period, a new parent and need support for postpartum anxiety, or depression or birth trauma? Looking to navigate being neurodivergent now that you've tried to navigate being an adult or parent? As a therapist I can always appreciate the vulnerability that a person can have when seeking out therapy, so it is my goal to make you feel at ease when you show up to work on any or all of these things at your pace and how I can create a safe space for you to be you and explore, well, life and it's impact on you.

Have you experienced anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use concerns? Do you recognize struggles with self worth, or feeling like you can't stay grounded or present in your everyday life? These can be very difficult problems to navigate, and therapy can help. I believe healing takes place through our relationships with others, and I provide a judgement free safe space to help this happen. I love to work with adolescents (16+) and adults on their own healing journey and guide you in finding your own strength in the process.

We all face challenges, but we don't need to face them alone. When you struggle with relationship issues, depression/anxiety, or other personal crises, you may feel alone, stuck, and helpless.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, having relationship difficulties, or possibly trying to overcome an addiction? Contemplating whether or not therapy can help? Let me say, this is the moment to do something different in your life. Whether you feel that your relationship is stuck in the same repetitive pattern; or trying to overcome an addiction; or maybe having difficulties in day-to-day life due to prior traumatic experiences. I can help you gain a better understanding of not only how trauma impacts our daily functioning; but how relationships work, and how problems can be resolved in even the most challenging situations.

Therapy is an invitation to begin where you are, just as you are. My first goal is to listen well and to seek to understand you. While my training includes many therapeutic approaches informed by research, I see therapy most of all as a creative process that unfolds within a genuine relationship. I believe that good therapy is flexible and responsive - it can be gentle and compassionate, serious and tough, and sometimes even very funny.

Do people believe you have it all together, or do you put on a brave face to conceal the pain? Your feelings are valid, and your healing journey is important. I specialize in healing from trauma, enhancing self-esteem, and mending relationships, employing EMDR, IFS, CPT, and DBT, alongside mindfulness, somatic work, and creative expression. Guiding you through increasing your confidence, fostering healthy relationships, and cultivating a positive self-view for lasting well-being

Many of my clients are insightful, curious, growth-oriented people who are seeking something beyond traditional therapy. My focus is on helping you to unpack the weight you've been carrying over the years and free up whatever it is that seems to be stuck.

Hello. We are looking forward to being a part of your journey toward happiness and health. In the Great Psychotherapy Debate (Wampold, 2001), studies demonstrated that if there are two groups of people with similar problems, those who receive counseling will be better off than 79% of those who do not receive counseling. Counseling can bring relief, resolution, clarity, freedom, or help you overcome a challenge. Our counseling style is encouraging, empowering, nonjudgmental, and thorough. We all have a training in variety of types of therapy and we will customize it to you.

Hope can be realized and joy can be a regular part of your life again.

Hi! Do you struggle with low self-esteem? You may find yourself making negative comments about yourself, being overly self-critical, or blaming yourself for things that go wrong. I help women struggling with low self-esteem grow their love and acceptance for themselves so that they can reduce anxiety and feel at peace within. Many of us struggle with a harsh inner critic telling us that we're not good enough, smart enough, pretty enough, etc. In sessions, I focus on creating an emotionally safe space so that together, we can work towards your goals of quieting the inner critic and growing your self-esteem so you feel good enough!

You appear driven and put together on the outside, but are struggling internally. You want relief. Perhaps the anxiety is the result of something that happened to you. If your life is inhibited by your past in any way, this is the right place for you. I can help you find what is on the other side of the anxiety and fear, which could be peace, relief, and authenticity. I have intensive and specialized training in Trauma, PTSD and the resulting anxiety that comes from overwhelming or unsafe situations & people.
