Are you overwhelmed with life stressors due to family conflicts, prioritizing school, or systemic issues? Do you sometimes feel so anxious, depressed, misunderstood, or numb that you feel disconnected from everything or everyone? Are you constantly prioritizing everyone except yourself? Are you simply tired of feeling stuck or overthinking? Well I get it! Tribulations can arise despite our age, race, religion, sex, or background. Despite our intersectionality, we all deserve and need a safe space to explore our thoughts, feelings, experiences, and behaviors; understanding the impact allows us to recognize patterns and create better experiences.

Welcome to New Beginnings Therapy and Consulting Services, PLLC. My ideal client is someone Who is committed to self-improvement and one who is invested in themselves. I work from a holistic perspective. I believe that we are three-part beings (body, mind and spirit) and each of these domains are impacted by the other and may be perpetuated by physical, social and environmental/cultural factors, rather than mental factors alone. I view all people as capable of change and that they can improve their mental and emotional health with the help of a skilled therapist. When you choose me as your therapist you will receive supportive, empathetic, empowering and collaborative care.

In my therapy practice, I work with a lot of people who are great at managing some aspects of their lives, but struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism and relationship issues. They can be so good at helping others, but never learned how to show up for themselves in the same way! I had my own first experience with therapy when I was in college: it was rigid and uncomfortable and not helpful...so I am intentionally here to offer the opposite experience. You'll find that I am laid back, and have a balance of compassion with sass/swearing. I'll help you understand the root of why things are showing up the way they are for you right now, and provide you the space and tools to shift how you are thinking, feeling, and showing up in your life. For clients who are interested, I also incorporate spiritual (not religious) and energetic tools to help the healing process. Check out my website to learn more!

Hi! I'm Beth (she/her), an OCD and anxiety specialist. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, self-doubt, reassurance-seeking, overthinking, and anxiety that seems to demand certainty before they can move forward. Using evidence-based approaches including ERP, I-CBT, and ACT, I help clients learn new ways of responding to fear and uncertainty so they can spend less time battling their thoughts and more time engaging in what matters most. ​ I provide in-person therapy in Grand Haven, including traditional office sessions and walk & talk therapy, as well as virtual therapy throughout Michigan.

Hi there! I am so excited to sit with you and be present as you engage in the therapeutic process. Taking the walk to receive the care you deserve is often the hardest step, so I am excited to be here with you to cheer you through it! In this life, we face a whirlwind of different scenarios that may create ups and downs in our timeline. And even more often, our internal voice may guide us in a way that sets us back. Together, as we establish our therapeutic relationship, I will work with you to empower you and help you explore how to reach your full potential! As a growing counselor, I have been able to gain a breadth of different experiences throughout my education. Hailing from Western Michigan University, I have had experiences working with individuals with developmental disabilities (behavioral) and was fascinated by people’s different stories and how all of our domains in life affect us in so many different ways! As I embarked on the clinical route, I have had experience working in individual and group counseling settings. As a neurodivergent individual myself, I understand what it’s like to feel those struggles inside and outside of ourselves. I aim to create a space for you to have that voice, the tools, and structural pieces to bring to the outside world. In our work, I often explore from a CBT, DBT, ACT, person-centered, and/or humanistic perspective. I also integrate faith-based counseling, spirituality counseling, as well as mindfulness based practices to help navigate the intersection between physical and mental growth. I work with anyone in our space from ages 13-100+, offering both individual and, now, group services (please reach out for more info on group, if interested)! In this space, my biggest goal is to recognize, ensure, and promote your safety and comfort, and collaboratively create a plan tailored to your success and well-being with the right tools for you. I will act as the facilitator to your growth, where you will always be the expert. My clinical interests involve working with neurodivergent individuals (autism, ADHD), life transitions, self-identity, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, anger management, boundary-setting/communication, relationship issues, as well as trauma-focused work. I’m excited to meet with you and look forward to what’s to come!

Hey there! I know that therapy can feel intimidating, so let’s first acknowledge and congratulate your willingness to take a step toward healing. My goal is to come alongside and partner with you while we work through the different pains that life can bring us. I have experience working with individuals going through various struggles: depression, anxiety, relational conflict, faith issues, substance use, stress, grief, chronic pain, life transitions, self esteem. My approach to therapy is person centered and based on individual needs and goals. I will take time to develop a relationship with you to build trust and have this be a safe place. I have clinical training in cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, crisis intervention, and certified as an advanced addiction and drug counselor. Also, I am able to provide a faith-based approach to therapy for those who are interested and request this. I have worked in community mental health agencies throughout the Grand Rapids area providing outpatient therapy for the last 7 years. I graduated with my bachelors degree in social work from Ferris State University and then received my masters in social work through Michigan State. I would love to partner with you and help overcome the barriers that are holding you back. You don’t have to do this alone. Fun facts: I have a 6 year old Golden Retriever named Jubilee :) I love the outdoors, I’m a certified scuba diver, I enjoy baking, and last but not least, despite getting my masters fromMichigan State I’m a huge Michigan Football fan! Go Blue!

I work with teens and college students to help them deal with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns. I also help people who are stressed out and need some clarity about big decisions such as whether to change majors. I use Solution Focused Therapy which means I'll help you get a clear idea of what you want things to look like in the immediate future and then help you use your current strengths and past successes to make it happen. I'll help you get ideas for small but do-able changes to start with, and these small changes add up to big change.

The shift from being a teenager to an adult can feel pretty overwhelming. It’s easy to feel like you’re the only one who doesn’t have everything figured out, especially when it seems like everyone else has it all together. You’re probably dealing with a lot—leaving home, becoming more independent, and figuring out how your relationships with family are changing. Feeling stuck or uncertain is normal, but it can also bring on feelings of anxiety, low self-worth, and even depression. And leaving home often opens up the space to finally face things in your family life that might have been too hard to address before. I’m here to support you through these transitions, helping you build confidence and see things in a more hopeful light. We’ll work together to set realistic goals that feel good for you, giving yourself the grace you need while creating a clear plan for what’s next. I’ll guide you to tap into your inner strength, uncover what truly matters to you, and help you access the resources you need. Through various therapeutic techniques, we’ll work on healing, managing emotions, and learning how to communicate your needs in a healthy way.

The years of your twenties can be a time of growth and change. It also is a time filled with feelings of self-doubt, loneliness, and stress. You are being faced with challenges that didn't exist for your parents at your age. Now more than ever adolescents and young adults ages 13 and up are experiencing increasing symptoms of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and difficulties with relationships. Times are not what they used to be and you deserve to be heard. Your opinions and feelings matter! You have worth and your voice is valued. If judgment from others didn't exist, what goals and dreams would you reach for I am with you on this journey, to discover your strengths, empower your soul, uncovering the passion within you. I provide a safe and empathetic environment that utilizes skills focusing on regulating emotions, improving relationships, cognitive distortions, while also incorporating strengths to increase confidence and true acceptance of self. When I was in my twenties, rather than feeling possibilities were endless, I struggled with feeling lost and alone. This period represented inadequacy and defeat. They were the most challenging years in my life. Through the battle with myself, I discovered my passion and ability to truly relate and understand this age group.
