I have a professional interest and passion to counsel adolescents, adults, families, and couples using evidence-based approaches and interpersonal practices. With supporting individuals overcoming trauma, mental illness, and/or substance abuse, I've learned how to aid in promoting an individual's personal sense of resilience through mindfulness techniques, along with other interventions, eliminating barriers to treatment. My clinical orientation includes, but is not limited to, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, existentialism, and person-centered approaches. By observing how individuals’ home and school environments influenced their behaviors, I found a unique fascination and understanding in how systems influence an individual and family.

Hi there! I am a clinician at Grounded in Growth, a Grand Rapids-based practice specializing in trauma-informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness. I work with young-adult and adult individual clients on issues, including anxiety disorders, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, self-esteem, stress, and more. I help clients uncover deeply rooted beliefs that prohibit them from living how they desire. My style of therapy is compassionate, accepting, and mindful. My clients and I work together to enhance awareness and explore the interconnectedness between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and encourage exploration and understanding from a multicultural lens. My mission is to create a safe, inclusive, and brave space for you to grow into the truest version of yourself. This can be your time to truly shift into the person you've always known you could be, overcome what's in your way, and truly thrive in your life. It would be my honor to walk with you on your journey to a fulfilling, empowered life.

I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which I understand that each of us has a unique set of strengths and challenges that shape who we are and how we experience relationships. In my collaborative work with individuals, couples, young children, and families, we focus on developing insight and establishing new strategies to overcome difficult patterns or concerns.

Are you someone who experienced trauma, and now struggles with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, trust, and community? My passion is working with survivors of trauma, including survivors who have experienced intimate partner violence/domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. I have extensive training and experience working with survivors aside from clinical work, including volunteering as a victim advocate on a college campus, being a SANE victim advocate, and working in two domestic violence shelters. I have 60+ hours of training in advocacy, trauma-informed-care, crisis intervention, and safety planning. I provide trauma-informed care, as well as a combination of both strengths and solutions-based approaches to meet clients where they are and use these strengths to empower them. I would love to go on this journey of empowerment, strengths, and growth with you! Please email me to schedule your first appointment!

Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Grand Rapids, MI

I work with variety of clients, but most of my clients come to me for help with relationship issues -- significant other, friend, family and work relationships. College students often come to me with issues related to roommates, gaining independence from parents, anxiety related to overwhelming school work, career choices and figuring out who they are. College years can be an amazing time of growth and opportunity, but they can also be incredibly stressful. I love to help college students navigate and find their ways through the many twists and turns of college life.

I believe in empowering individuals to take control of their health. I have a deep belief in the ability for you to overcome difficulties. As a therapist, I believe, you are the expert in your experience and it is my role to provide a safe, understanding, and non-judgemental space for you to heal, grow, and move into a new way of being and feeling. But that doesn’t mean you have to figure everything out on your own–we will work together. I am here to support you in your healing journey. Collaboratively, we will set goals on both what you want to achieve and things that you want to rid from your life. Burying or ignoring our pain may feel like the only way we can move past them. In reality, painful things that happen to us can continue to impact our ability to maintain and develop healthy relationships, as well as our overall physical and mental health. Difficult circumstances may even alter the way we view ourselves and the world around us; making us seem like we aren’t “worthy” or a “good person.” I am here to help you regain the sense of who you want to be in the world and to free yourself of negative views of yourself. You are meant to thrive and I am here to support you until you get to where you want to be. Maybe you don’t know what you want to do with your life at this point. Perhaps a relationship has gone sour, you found out that the degree you received or the job you have is not what you want. Therapy can help you figure out your next steps and change the path you have been on. I have experience working with both men and women of diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, I have worked with survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and childhood trauma. I have a great deal of passion for working with people who want to boost their self-esteem. I have a great deal of knowledge on how to help resolve intimacy issues in relationships and also with one’s self. I am trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy for treating Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Depression. I have a strong conviction to help serve the LGBTQ+ community as well as experience and resources.
