Teletherapy for Grand Rapids, MI
I like to the heart of the matter quickly and then work with my clients to co-creative solutions tailored to their specific needs. My clients describe being in therapy with me as being involved in 'deeper work.' The deeper work may be related to the past, but it also could be doing a deeper dive into your current life and finding healthier ways to cope. I am trained in leadership assessment and coaching and I consult with family-owned businesses. In addition, to my psychology license in Michigan, I also am approved to provide telehealth services in Florida

Hello! Wonder what a session will be like with me? We'll talk. Really talk. I'll listen. I'll ask off the wall questions sometimes. We'll laugh because everyone needs more dopamine. Laughter is good medicine. I'll be honest and direct and encourage you to be the same. I might ask you to get your body involved in the session - to stretch or rock or tap or touch your heart. We might cry or swear or just sit in WTF silence - it happens. Safe silence is a beautiful thing. Maybe I'll share a journal page or a poem. Maybe you will share something you've heard or seen or made. If it feels like connection and healing for you, I'm in.

Most of us act with the best of intentions and don’t always get the results we were expecting. As a counselor, my role is not to tell a client what to do, but rather to help clients examine what their goals are, different ways goals can be achieved, and to provide supportive and honest feedback through a therapeutic relationship. I have lived in and around very diverse communities throughout my life, and I take pride in understanding and honoring everyone’s unique culture and beliefs.

I work with clients from all backgrounds, religions, gender identity, and sexual orientation. I believe that as we move through life we encounter moments that cause us to adapt; whether from trauma, unmet expectations, humiliation, lack of nurturing, societal pressure, or our role within our family. We cultivate these adaptations and carry them with us, applying them to new parts of life where they may no longer be needed. If we learn to meet ourselves with compassion, gratitude, and curiosity, getting to know the parts of us that work so diligently to protect us, we can begin to uncover and heal the deeper wounds that they shield.

Everyone experiences life struggles. I believe clients come to therapy already equipped with the tools and skills to make change and therapy is a tool to help accomplish that goal. I specialize in helping individuals with trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship problems. I've worked with adults, children, adolescents and families for 20 years, and take great joy in seeing change happen in the lives of others. I believe in a client-centered approach, which means you are the expert of your own life, and I am a facilitator in helping you accomplish your own goals. I also have experience working with other healthcare professionals.

Traditional therapy models do not always resonate with people nowadays. Mindfulness training, on the other hand, if taught and utilized correctly, is just as effective today as it was thousands of years ago. Controlled breathing can calm us during a busy day at the office. Non judgmental awareness can help us be more patient with ourselves and our families. Meditative techniques such as one-pointedness can improve our focus and clarity. Despite several misconceptions, mindfulness is a practice that we can ALL readily access. I would be happy to help you get started. Schedule your free consultation today at www.mindflo.net.

What would you do tomorrow if you woke up free from that little voice of doubt, anxiety, and self-loathing? As a therapist, I love to explore the answer to that question with you. It’s my belief that we all are deserving of living into our greatest selves, but that this voice and its irrational nature prevent us from doing so. In an effort to change its narrative, we work together to explore, challenge, and reframe the negative core beliefs at the root of your suffering. It is the dual process of building self-awareness through empathetic exploration of blind-spots and the development of a strong therapeutic connection.

Are you a mom or helping professional feeling burned out? Have you found talk therapy helpful but want to try something new? Have you heard about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and want to experience the model? IFS has been described as “what I hoped therapy would be” because it's genuinely compassionate and non-pathologizing. Instead of trying to force change, IFS facilitates organic transformation through a process of connecting with thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I've enjoyed working with clients from all over the mitten thanks to the accessibility telehealth offers.
