Teletherapy for Bay City, MI

I received my Masters of Social Work degree from Michigan State University and have worked with individuals, families, and children for over 10 years. I am passionate about a whole-person approach and enjoy using Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique, and Somatic Therapy in my sessions. I specialize in treating trauma and anxiety disorders and use a collaborative, strength-based approach to foster hope, healing, and resilience. I believe that every person is their own "expert" and love watching people build more meaningful and fulfilling lives.

I have worked heavily in the trauma field as well as severe mental illnesses. I have experience in a range of many different disorders and traumas using different therapeutic techniques that would work best for each individual client. I am most informed in cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused modalities, and motivational interviewing. I have the most experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults, but I have worked with adults as well. I love to empower, advocate, and help each individual learn about themselves and become the best version of themself through therapy and healing.

I strive to empower clients while providing emotional healing. As a team, we will begin by building on clients' strengths while incorporating strategies to ultimately encourage effective decision making in the future along with promoting the incorporation of healthy coping mechanisms.
