Most humans are never fully present in the now because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now. - Eckhart Tolle. My main focus is living in the present and being where your feet land, to be in the present and to focus on the current. As your therapist, I will help you find new ways to look at your past that may help you to better understand your present circumstances. My approach is based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying emotions and thoughts to then recognize how they impact actions.

Accepting New Clients! I have been providing Telehealth services since 2020, and I strongly believe that it has the same therapeutic outcomes as in person therapy, if you and I collaborate, have good rapport and create SMART goals. As a therapist and an average person, I understand that we are exposed to many different life experiences daily and that comes with ups and downs. Our day to day life can be joyful and stressful, which can leave us feeling overwhelmed at some point. therefore, we might need someone to talk to outside of our circle of family and friends.

As a person on my own long term recovery journey from addiction and mental illness, I know how difficult it can be to overcome the obstacles of this world. I remember praying for the strength to reach out, but also that the person reaching back would understand on a deep level how to help me.

I have a passion for working with individuals looking to escape the yo-yo dieting cycle, learn about the many negatives of diet culture, and finally find body and food acceptance. As someone who is neurodiverse, I have a deep connection to various neurodiverse communities and firmly believe in understanding neurodiversity as a natural variation rather than a “disorder”. I also draw upon principles from WPATH and stand firm in my commitment to the LGBTQIA+, HAES, and ENM/poly communities. Growing up in a rural area in the thumb of Michigan taught me about the power of community and human connection, which I always bring to sessions!

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
