Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Rochester Hills, MI

People come to me because they feel trapped, depressed, anxious or angry, or stuck in a rut. There is a huge gap between expectations and reality together with a breakdown in their mind, body, emotions, and spirit. They feel unregulated, unbalanced, unable to sleep, exhausted, in pain, in fight or flight mode most of the time and sometimes, have suicidal tendencies. They are crying or screaming in one way or the other. They want relief, things to go back to where they were, change, peace of mind and time to heal. Most importantly, they want love and compassion.

Are you feeling as though you have no one to talk to or no one who is willing to listen to your concerns and frustrations as well as your successes? Listening is one of the most effective ways one can demonstrate empathy to others. I am here to be that someone and to help guide you to be the best version of yourself. I have worked with many diagnoses including Anxiety, Depression, Suicidal Ideation, Trauma, ADHD, and Personality Disorders. I am here to provide a neutral and safe space for my clients.

My goal as a psychotherapist is to help clients reach their full potential by developing a healthy sense of self. A non-judgmental and empathetic atmosphere is crucial to developing a positive therapeutic relationship. I work with adolescents and adults of various backgrounds who struggle with the hardships of daily living including, but not limited to, anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-harm/suicidal ideation, trauma, life transitions, as well as the struggles of the LGBTQ community and those of multicultural backgrounds.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I have experience working with a variety of issues. I believe that change happens when an individual experiences the therapeutic relationship as safe and nonjudgmental. This allows individuals to develop a voice and be heard. I support my clients in accessing their innate motivation to change while assisting them in re-evaluating patterns of thought and behavior that inhibit personal growth. I have been trained in therapeutic practices that are shown to be effective in helping clients to reach their personal goals.

It’s difficult to admit we don’t always like the person that stares back at us when we look in the mirror. Sometimes life can make you a shell of your former self. You may ask yourself, Am I a good friend, partner, parent, child, student, worker? The burden of trying to be everything for everyone can feel draining. For so long you have pretended to be okay. Maybe, at times you even believed you were okay. Therapy offers you the opportunity to explore past experiences while also focusing on your ideal future self. You don't have to do this alone. Allow me to help you experience life more abundantly.

Everyone’s experiences and paths are unique. Every journey is its own struggle. My main goal is to connect with my clients as a person, help them feel understood and support them through their journey. I strive to use the therapeutic techniques most compatible with the client’s characteristics and needs. I have extensive theoretical training and practical experience in psychoanalysis, psychodynamic therapy, humanistic psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy, and dialectic behavior therapy, and I can work effectively using a short term, more focused approach, as well as an open ended, exploratory approach.

My mission is to support the exploration and the search for the client's own skills, abilities, goals and purpose with a genuine, unconditional regard. In a non-directive way, I am here to support exploration, growth, discovery, strength, self-care and to encourage people's realization of their unlimited options to gain back control over their own lives.

At our practice, we have created an inviting and comfortable environment in which clients and professional staff can collaborate to address a number of presenting concerns. We are trained in a variety of evidence-based treatment methods that have been developed and rigorously researched by some of the world's leading experts. Our measured, thoughtful approach to assessment and treatment planning help to ensure that all clients are presented with treatment options that are well-suited to meet their needs. You and your therapist will partner to develop a customized plan to help you achieve an optimal treatment outcome.

Life brings about all ranges of human emotion and reaction. As we are all individuals, we have different perspectives on the challenges that tend to suddenly appear at our doorstep. It is a powerful realization to recognize when those experiences become too overwhelming to manage alone. Through a variety of psychodynamic, humanistic and behavioral theories, I work to use an integrative approach to therapeutic intervention in order to fit the treatment to the individual.

With over 30 years of experience, I am a seasoned practitioner who works effectively with a wide range of clients. My work is based on my view of people as embedded in multiple contextual relationships (family, work, school, friends, etc) any of which can be out of balance. This instability can be the result or cause of a disturbance in one's inner balance. I can help you gain a better understanding of your personal contexts and help you achieve greater balance, stability and happiness. My practice includes work with adults, adolescents, children, couple and families.

My passion derives from the positive changes I see in clients as they grow and move forward. I aim to help clients by approaching their areas of concern in a holistic manner, taking all aspects of their circumstances into consideration. I offer an empathetic, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where you can feel comfortable exploring your beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors while finding ways to create positive change. Each client's situation is unique, and should be treated as such.

I believe working closely with clients to help them reach their fullest potential through developing goals, creating healthy boundaries, and empowering you for change. I use evidence based cognitive behavioral methods to help you challenge everyday thinking that keeps you locked in self destructive or unhealthy patterns, which ultimately diminish quality of life and satisfaction of relationships. It is crucial for clients to understand their issues fully so corrective action and healing may happen. I meet my clients where they are in their lives and incorporate their culture, personal talents and strengths, religion, sexual orientation, and ethnic background into the counseling process for authentic exchange.

I AM NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. You're searching for a therapist to be of help to yourself or a loved one. Whether you hope to ease a problem such as anxiety, depression, relationship stress, substance abuse, or grief, or want to build a more satisfying life, finding the right professional to guide you is important. In my more than 30 years as a therapist, my clients have told me that my ability to help them develop new skills and insights, while connecting with them with compassion and humor, has helped them reach their goals.

Life isn't always easy. Whether you or your loved one are facing challenges at work, home, or school....we are here to help!
