Family Therapy in Ann Arbor, MI
I partner with clients looking to expand self-insight, self-compassion and resilience amid life's challenges. My work addresses the low mood and anxiety that can come from managing chronic illness, difficult family relationships, infertility, caregiving, and grief and loss. I also work with younger clients navigating the unique challenges of early adulthood. Together we'll develop therapeutic goals and a treatment plan tailored to your strengths and values, and grounded in a safe and trusting therapeutic partnership.

I incorporate several techniques through CBT, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, Family Systems, Solution Focused and Strength Based therapies to look at each individual as a whole.
Life can be hard at times, and often very unpredictable. We may find ourselves not equipped with the tools we need to process all of life's challenges, or we may just need safe space to talk through the issues that arise. I believe in creating a collaborative space where my clients feel safe, secure and not judged to explore areas and skills to help you live your best life.

I have a relationally orientated practice which sees family of origin relationships having key influences on our adult relationships.
Therapy is a very personal journey and wherever you find yourself right now is where you are supposed to be. Life can bring challenges. Whether you seek help in the treatment of anxiety, depression, overthinking, grief and loss, infertility, general dissatisfaction, or to heal from past traumas, we can find a treatment approach for you.

I use a collaborative and empathetic approach with clients, drawing on internal family systems, cognitive-behavioral, play therapy, mindfulness-based, and psychodynamic models.
I am dedicated to helping individuals and families find meaning and joy in relationships. I treat a wide variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, major life transitions, and parenting issues. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and belief systems.

Areas of emphasis: Depression, anxiety, trauma, intergenerational trauma, racial/ethnic/gender identity, OCD, family of origin issues, attachment, narcissistic abuse, self-criticism/shame.
Life is hard! Pause for a moment and give yourself credit for taking this brave, difficult step. You're respecting your struggles AND looking for constructive ways to address them. I use a collaborative and exploratory (rather than expert) model to help you develop/access resources to navigate life's difficulties. I use approaches supported by research while recognizing the limits of evidence-based therapies which often need to be adapted, abandoned, or incorporated with other practices to meet a person's realities, needs, and strengths. I strive to create a safe supportive relationship and deeply value feedback and dialogue.

Waitlist for new clients
I am not currently accepting new clients through Telehealth. The most courageous step in starting a journey of change is asking someone for help. My goal is to help individuals heal and feel equipped to develop the tools they need to create a more empowered life. My approach to counseling is collaborative, non-judgmental, and supportive in order to create a healthy space where an individual, couple, or family can freely be themselves.

We can work together to help you regain your confidence in yourself and your parenting, to experience more playfulness within your family & to see your family flourish.
Have you been in survival mode for too long? Are you working so hard to reparent yourself while simultaneously parenting small people with big needs? Or are you parenting a child with big behaviors or emotions? Parenting a child who is struggling is stressful and isolating. Maybe the thought "this isn't what (or the child) I was expecting" has even run through your mind. Whether you planned for pregnancy, fostering or adopting, you likely dreamed of love, connection and joy. And now you are not sure how to get there from here. Or if it is even possible. It really is! There is always room for hope.

I use many therapeutic frameworks, including: Internal Family Systems, narrative, psycho-dynamic, cognitive behavioral, and connective parenting to help people find meaning and hope in the everyday.
Everyone deserves to have a good day and a better tomorrow. I realize that taking on a personal change out of desire or necessity is often harder than it sounds. I work with all ages, life-stages, and conditions. People arrive with their bag of “stuff”: hopes, disappointments, wounds, trauma, diagnoses, and connections. I start where you are and work with you to create a path to a place of well-being.

Are you a stressed-out university student or are you dealing with a major life overhaul? Maybe brand new at the job, uprooted by a move across country or bombarded by the pressures of campus life? An exhausted new parent, navigating tricky relationships with adult kids or reinventing yourself after retirement? Our lives are full of change and change is tough but a tremendous chance for reflection and growth. Learning to manage these changes intentionally and effectively will pave the way for what comes next.
