Priority Health Therapists in Brighton, MI
Everyone can use someone to talk to. Whether they just need to have a person to vent to or someone to help realign their life perspective, it is important to have a person. I want to be that person to others. I want to help to encourage others, provide positive change, promote health and stability and have open communication to others. A person who seeks therapy knows that their life journey is easier when shared with someone who can help manage the struggles and celebrate the joys that our journey has and they are willing to navigate them and are ready for a change.

Often, our past experiences leave us wounded. The story that we tell ourselves becomes permeated with negative thoughts, low self-worth, and shame. As these feelings manifest, we become anxious and depressed. We might experience isolation, loneliness, and a loss of connection to others and to ourselves. Therapy can help us discover perspectives that create a new narrative, one in which we have different ways to manage our emotions and lead a more enjoyable life.

I believe that there is a story people tell about themselves. Sometimes, parts of the story can be problematic or leave a person feeling stuck. I use language as a tool to find ways to get unstuck. I feel that language is a powerful tool because it creates meaning and the reality which we live in. I believe that successful change involves both the therapist and client working collaboratively to generate new possibilities and a new story that illustrates their preferred way of living! I understand that there is risk and uncertainty in this process, which is why I make sure to provide a warm and open environment for exploration.

I believe the space held between therapist and client is sacred. It is a privilege and honor to be invited to take part in the journey of another person’s life - to witness their challenges and joys. I believe that you are more than your trauma or diagnosis. My goal is to be a therapeutic partner in helping you foster your strength and resilience. Together we will explore what you need to manage uncomfortable feelings, identify behaviors you want to change and integrate healthy ways of coping into the rhythm of your life. I believe in you.

I love making a real connection in sessions, and creating space for laughter, tears, playfulness, frustration – however you feel in that moment is how I’d like to invite you to be. A time to put down the masks we wear around others and find a place of comfort and growth that is, most importantly, free from judgment or stigma. I’m flexible in my therapeutic approach and listen carefully when you tell me what you need – from a place to privately vent and process life’s stressors, to professional insight regarding areas of distress, to concrete, actionable skills and plans to address your concerns.

I see adults (individual & couples), adolescents, and children 12+. My ultimate goal is to not only help my clients overcome their presenting issues, but also to foster within them a deeper, more complete understanding of themselves, as well as any relevant diagnoses. It is true that therapy can at times feel difficult, but the benefits (hope, support, validation, relief from trauma, reflective guidance, coping skills, insight into sources of distress, strategies for strengthening relationships, psychoeducation, etc.) can be lifelong and, with the right psychotherapist-client fit, even the most challenging sessions feel therapeutic.

Based on my experience, I feel well suited to help patients’ who are looking for relief from depression, anxiety, and trauma. However, I’m very interested in the individual differences and experiences that lead up to these mental health concerns, rather than viewing them as a “one-size-fits-all” phenomenon. I’m interested in those experiencing current relational issues, family of origin concerns, attachment ruptures, and issues that pop up related to identity development in emerging adults.
