In Person Therapists in Curtis, MI

I enjoy working with children, teens, adults, and their families. I offer individual, couples, and family therapy. Finding a good "fit" with a therapist can be challenging. I strive to quickly put clients at ease and provide a safe space where we can work together to identify your strengths and skills, process significant life events, communicate your feelings, develop positive coping strategies, and provide support. My passion is to help each client discover their unique strengths in addressing their concerns, no matter their age. If you are seeking services please contact me via email to ensure a timely reply.

A safe and comfortable relationship between you and your therapist is key to helping you make the changes you want in life. We can talk about what is happening and find new ways to help you cope with your concerns, learn to live more fully and to be self-compassionate.

It's easy to start thinking we can never be happy again. My goal is helping you find your capacity for meaningful change. Having the support system of a therapist is a powerful tool. My approach is direct and engaging (and it is okay for us to use humor). I work with adults and am an active participant in the session. Life transitions can really throw us, and it is not because we are weak, it is because we are normal. I will help you use adversity to become resilient.

Emotional struggles exist for all people, it matters whether we pay attention to them or not. It is a choice to come to therapy. It's an investment of your time, effort and mental well-being.

When thinking, decisions, actions and feels create a feeling of being "stuck" or confused, therapy can be one of your options. Feelings are always there. They exist whether we like it or not. Discovering how these feelings play out in our lives, can bring us to a new level of productive awareness.

Deciding to enter therapy can be intimidating but it shouldn't be. Whether you are experiencing a new challenge or a long-standing problem, therapy is a wonderful opportunity for self-healing and growth. Often people enter therapy because they notice something feels "off" but are having a hard time identifying the problem; others come in knowing the problem but are struggling with how to address it. I will help you clarify the problem and together we will work together to identify goals and create a plan to help you reach those goals.

You woke up one day and realized that this was not the life you wanted or expected. Depression, anxiety, Postpartum Mood Disorders or other issues have left you feeling wrung out, stressed and useless. You don't do anything that takes real effort or makes you vulnerable in any way. Your relationships aren't fulfilling. You feel like you need a time out from life and so fill your free time with the internet or TV. You compare yourself to the pretty lives shown online and wonder 'why not me?'. You just want to stop feeling this way-- and fast.
