Let me help guide you through these feelings and find peace within yourself. I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma, anxiety, and depression. This modality will help you find peace and resolution from the things that bother you the most in your day to day life. I understand that taking the first step, whether it’s asking a question, seeking guidance, or exploring a new partnership, can feel like a lot. Please know that you don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to listen, support you, and help you find the solution that feels right for you.

I work with a wide range of clients that have had ongoing struggles with depression, anxiety, and borderline personality disorder. I worked at a health clinic for a few years focusing on clients with postpartum depression, anxiety, and OCD. I offer a warm and inviting environment where you can share your struggles and traumas. My goal is to help make connections on why you may behave the way you do and then focus on helping you with change. In life we are always going through changes and transitions and everyone deserves to have a space to learn, grow, and heal.

Welcome! Starting counseling is not easy and by coming here you have taken an important first step. This is meant to be a safe and non-judgmental space. I am a licensed master social worker with a wide variety of life experiences which have given me the opportunity to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures. I am continually working to expand my therapeutic knowledge and skills in order to offer clients the right treatment for individual needs. That said I do embrace aspects of “positive psychology”. I like to accentuate what is right with you and not focus only on what is “wrong” with you. I have specialized training in Infant Mental Health, several behavioral therapies (DBT, CBT, ACT, MBCT), Child Parent Psychotherapy, and trauma informed therapies. I lean towards the so called “third wave” cognitive behavioral therapies which include concepts such as acceptance and mindfulness. I have experience treating people with a range of challenges including but not limited to depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief and loss, PTSD and trauma. I believe that everyone has the capacity to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. Sometimes we face challenges and barriers which may seem overwhelming. Therapy can help identify the source of these challenges and how to overcome them. Currently I work with adults and couples, and accept most major insurances.

Going away to school, adjusting to your new adult role in life, managing various roles in your life can be exhausting and overwhelming. My ultimate goal is to create validating, non-judgmental environment to help you feel safe and comfortable. I believe in offering support, guidance and knowledge to each of my clients.I have been trained in DBT therapy to teach you skills to manage emotions, improve relationships, and modify behaviors. You can develop the healthy life you desire. Humans experience emotions! Sometimes we may think there is a right way and a wrong way to feel and distress means, we are feeling the wrong way. That is a ton of pressure! Sometimes, our emotions become distressing. Few are taught to manage emotions effectively and distress can lead to self-blame, defeated feelings, strained relationships, self-harm, and more. I WOULD BE HONORED TO HELP YOU! I believe in treating clients holistically. We are more than our mental health. We are all individuals and our experiences are unique. My clinical focus is creating an environment that is safe, unique to your personal needs, and promotes personal growth. We will work together to replace unhealthy coping with positive skills, proven to work. A LITTLE ABOUT ME I graduated with my Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from Western Michigan University. I am a fully licensed LLP and a LPC. I have been working in the field of counseling for many years and have received instruction in the areas of Parenting, Trauma, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, CBT. and Anxiety. However, the greatest instruction I have received is the variety of experiences I have overcome, in my own life. I specialize in helping people feel empowered to take the control back of their emotions, their past, their circumstances, their relationships and ultimately their lives. I work with individuals and families from various cultural backgrounds, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity. You are reading this to decide if I have the tools to help you with whatever circumstance brought you here today. I believe I do have the tools you need. I think everyone is valuable and has the ability to learn skills to overcome their circumstances and become the person they would like to be. You are strong enough, important enough and deserving of growth and healing, and I will do my best to help you grow, heal and THRIVE in everything you encounter.

I’m passionate about supporting children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate the impact of trauma and life’s many challenges. My approach is grounded in the belief that healing happens through genuine connection and that you are the expert in your own story. Together, we will move at a pace that feels right for you, gently exploring and processing distressing thoughts, feelings, memories, and behaviors. Whether you’re struggling with PTSD, anxiety, depression, addiction, or ADHD, I offer a supportive, strength-based space where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered to move toward clarity and balance. I draw on a range of evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tailoring these approaches to your unique needs and goals. Compassion, curiosity, and respect guide every step of our work together. As a trained EMDR therapist, I offer this powerful, healing approach when we mutually decide it’s a good fit. EMDR can help your mind and body process distressing experiences and restore a greater sense of calm and stability. My role is to walk alongside you on this journey helping you build insight, resilience, and meaningful tools that support lasting change.

Many of the students I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck in their thoughts, or unsure how to manage everything on their plate. You might be dealing with anxiety, burnout, trouble focusing, or feeling mentally exhausted from trying to keep up with school, work, and life. I work especially well with students who are navigating ADHD, autism/neuro-spicy, executive functioning challenges, anxiety, depression, or big life transitions. Some of my clients struggle with procrastination, staying organized, or following through on tasks, even when they really want to do well. Others feel constantly stressed, overthink everything, or have a hard time turning their mind off. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, unmotivated, or just not like yourself lately, that’s enough. My approach is practical and supportive. We focus on real-life strategies that help you manage stress, improve focus, and feel more in control of your day-to-day life. At the same time, we’ll explore what’s underneath the stress so you can start to feel more grounded and confident. If you’re looking for a therapist who is easy to talk to and focused on helping you actually feel better, not just talk about problems, you’re in the right place.

College can be a double edged sword. Independence but responsibility. Fun social events but intense studying and homework. New experiences outside your comfort zone. Common emotions during this phase of life include excitement, stress, confusion, feeling overwhelmed, scattered, and even beginning to question who you are and who you want to be. Therapy is a great way to start to explore all these experiences, emotions and life events that are part of your daily life. We can focus on helping you get organized and balanced, explore relationships, improve boundaries, and anything else that is important to you or may come up. Struggling with people pleasing? Perfectionism? Time management? Those are also all relevant topics. Feel free to reach out with any questions and we can go from there!

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
Farmington Hills, MI

Hi, I am Marilyn: A dual board certified Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner that is passionate about holistic and integrative health practices as the foundations for sustainable health and wellness. I blend traditional medication management psychiatry with functional and integrative approaches that get to the root of your challenges—not just the symptoms. My care goes beyond medication. We’ll explore how nutrition, sleep, stress, movement, and relationships impact your mental health, and together, we'll create a plan that fits your life and goals. I help adolescents, young adults, and mid-career professionals overwhelmed from cycles of anxiety, depression, and trauma —so they can feel calm, focused, and whole again. Through an integrative approach—blending medication management, therapy, supplements, and lifestyle coaching—I guide my clients in quieting negative self-talk and reclaiming their confidence, clarity, purpose, and joy. I also combine evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing to learn how your thoughts, feelings and behavior impact each other. Together, we will use this knowledge to shift unhelpful thought patterns, build motivation, and take empowered steps forward—at your own pace. Clients describe me as compassionate, curious, holistic and grounded. I listen deeply, hold space without judgment, and work collaboratively so you feel seen, supported, and in control of your healing journey. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, holistic and integrative approach to mental wellness that honors both science and your story—you’re in the right place. Let’s work together to restore clarity, balance, and peace from the inside out.

I believe that you are the master of your own life, and I believe that therapy is a joint process that we can navigate together. I am not here to judge you or tell you how you should be living. I am here to help you develop the tools and understanding needed to create the life you want and meet your long and short term goals. I have a focus centered around the LGBTQ+ community, but also specialize in working with women's issues, anxiety disorders, depression, and grief. I have worked in crisis intervention and have experience with treating substance use disorders. I utilize a mix of Cognative Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and person centered modalities to help adults who are looking for a change in their life, looking to better understand how to cope, or looking to go through their process of healing and/or recovery. I am not just a counselor, but also a peer. I am part of the LGBTQ+ community, and have struggled with an anxiety disorder and bouts of depressive symptoms throughout my life. I hope that my experiences can better help me to understand yours and allow me to be a positive asset to you in your journey to grow and heal.
