For many folks, transitioning to college life feels difficult enough. But for those who are holding themselves together after trauma, struggling with chronic illness and mental health, or those who are first-generation students, the hurdles to being successful can feel insurmountable. As a therapist, I specialize in working with clients who identify as BIPOC, neurodiverse, or who are navigating chronic health conditions. My goal is to help clients recover from PTSD, set and maintain healthy boundaries, and navigate relationships in ways that set them free from people-pleasing. I have worked extensively with survivors of sexual assault and other forms of abuse. I work for Spring Forest Counseling, a group therapy practice located in Okemos, where I see clients in-person and virtually. I am trained in EMDR for PTSD, and also utilize IFS/parts work, mindfulness, and exposure therapy when relevant. My approach is direct, empowerment-based, and educational.
We’re empowering change—one conversation at a time. Our mission is to cultivate a safe and judgment-free space for navigating life’s challenges, easing distress, and building stronger, more meaningful relationships. Through a blend of cognitive-behavioral, emotionally-focused, and trauma-informed techniques, our clinicians specialize in treating anxiety & depression, relationship challenges, traumatic stress, grief & loss, disordered eating, and more. We see a deep, inherent value in the unique identities, backgrounds, and experiences of every individual who walks through our doors. We’re anti-racist. We’re LGBTQIA+ affirming. We’re woman owned.
I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel safe, understood, and accepted—exactly as you are. You might find yourself feeling constantly anxious or on edge, caught up in worries that never seem to quiet down. Maybe you’re often hard on yourself, struggling with self-doubt or guilt, or noticing that it’s hard to feel joy or motivation the way you used to. When life starts to feel like this, it can be difficult to see a way forward or imagine things feeling different. My approach is person-centered, meaning our work is guided by your needs, your pace, and what feels most meaningful to you. I enjoy working with teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and the lasting impact of complex trauma. In our work together, I may draw from compassion-focused and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help you understand yourself better, and adjust the beliefs you hold about yourself, others, and the world. Through this process, we’ll work toward cultivating more enjoyment, confidence, and self-compassion in your everyday life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have been a therapist for 17 years and have dedicated my life to helping others overcome painful experiences, manage emotions and find healing. I specialize in treating adults struggling with anxiety, substance use and working with the LGBTQ+ community. My therapeutic style is warm, supportive and encouraging.
