About
I have always had a passion for women supporting women, both in my interpersonal and professional realms. In this day and age where the expectations placed on women is perhaps only trumped by the volume of their own self-expectations, well…. the weight of the world begins to feel hard to carry.
My practice has been committed to detangling the everyday stressors and fiercely supporting women during some of the most intimate and intense points in their life. This often encompassess the fertility warriors, or the women whose pregnancy has held elements of anxiousness. Mothers who are in the middle of midnights alone in their mind and heart while feeding, or caring for their ever-changing teens. Those breaking generational dysfunctions in their families, often travailing at it alone because of the healthy disruptions they are bringing to the table.
My clients are often high functioning, and introspective. They are eager to grow, and brave enough to be vulnerable. They often value counseling as an intricate part of their wellbeing, and whether they are making a change, a choice or are resting in a safe place to cope, they show up for themselves with authenticity and commitment.
My practice opened in 2010, and being a Professional Counselor came after some time in Nashville where I worked in PR in the Music Industry. I have a Bachelors in Public Relations, and a Masters in Professional Counseling, all from Central Michigan University (Fire Up Chips!)
You’ll find my style is warm and easy, creating safety and rapport so trust can be built. I also use humor a lot, and use my own experiences in infertility, hectic pregnancies, and the female experience to allow me to connect with you in a really meaningful way.
