Modern humans have existed on earth for about 200,000 years, while the modern office (and many other stressors in our lives) emerged less than 200 years ago. We really are in uncharted waters. With such a minuscule amount of human history lived under these conditions, it is no surprise that so many of us struggle to make our way. Everyone deserves to have someone in their corner. Everyone deserves to aspire, achieve, dream, thrive, and rest. The miracle of the therapeutic relationship is not just that relief is possible, but that we are active participants in deciding how that looks for ourselves. Together, we hold space to elevate your experience and to discover and endeavor towards your goals. Taking what resonates with you (and setting aside what doesn't), we can work within any of life's domains where we believe change is possible, and can go inward with acceptance and mindfulness to sit with the parts of our realities that are beyond our control. At the risk of sounding cliche - trying therapy is a brave act in a challenging world. Goodness of fit is a valid concern, and you deserve to find a therapist that will work for you! Get in touch today, and we can schedule a 15-minute phone call to explore working together.

Navigating the path to mental well-being may seem overwhelming, and I acknowledge the courage it takes to embark on the journey of therapy. My goal is to create a welcoming and secure environment for clients, recognizing that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Utilizing a person-centered approach, I tailor sessions to your unique life situation, employing warmth and empathy to foster a safe therapeutic space where opening up becomes more accessible. My commitment is to provide excellent care within an inclusive setting for all communities. As a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan and (LCSW) in Indiana, I bring a wealth of experience in assisting individuals facing diverse challenges. From anxiety and depression to coping strategies, addiction, and women's specific concerns, my professional background is dedicated to helping you navigate these issues. Let's work together to explore the motivations behind your decision to pursue therapy and strive for improvements in your overall quality of life. I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you on building a future where you can thrive.
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.
We all have a way of maintaining safety in relationships and making the world "work." However, from time to time, we realize that these strategies may or may not be leading us to the life we've wanted. I greatly enjoy working with women experiencing anxiety and relationship difficulties - often manifesting as high achievement and/or perfectionism. Many of my current clients are in the helping professions - mental health, medicine, faith-based ministry. Together, we begin to explore interpersonal patterns and tendencies as well as core beliefs and narratives, with the goal of creating a new story. Please see my Psychology Today profile for additional info.

I've spent many years working in different college counseling centers and have a true love for the college population - so much is happening in emerging adulthood, especially figuring out who you are and what you want life to look like. Because of increased stress and responsibilities, it is also a time where mental health concerns can either emerge for the first time or increase in their severity. I find great joy in getting to be a supportive space and teammate for folks navigating this incredibly rich period of life.

Accepting NEW Clients. I’m a bisexual, cis Asian woman and first-gen college grad from a low-income family. As an immigrant, I know how heavy it can feel to carry so many layers of identity. I’ve had my own journey with mental health and trauma, and I bring that lived experience into my work with empathy and zero judgment. I’m LGBTQIA-affirming, sex-positive, and passionate about creating a space where you can show up fully as yourself. Art and drawing have been healing tools for me and I believe in the power of creativity to support growth and self-expression. I hold a trauma-informed perspective at the heart of my practice, approaching each individual with sensitivity to their unique stories and recognizing the strengths they bring to our therapeutic journey. I accept clients where they are and hold a nonjudgmental open minded, safe space for each person. As an alternative therapist, I am deeply committed to authenticity and utilizing my lived experience to emphasize that you are not alone. My primary focus is serving young and emerging adults, helping navigate life changes, stressors, hormones, and adjusting to adulthood.

Life is nuanced. It is filled with choices, priorities, curve balls, imperfection, and grace. It is a commemoration of beginnings and endings. I specialize in working with individuals going through significant transition. This could be career change, terminating a relationship, processing through grief or simply wanting to change a habit. I am here to support, empower, and advocate for you as you go through change and find secure footing in uncertain times. My approach to therapy is purposely eclectic and person-centered, and sometimes incorporates creative/artistic recovery into treatment. It is my experience that positive change is best achieved through a collaborative approach to treatment. It is my intention through our therapeutic relationship that you understand the inherent wisdom you possess and that you recognize your personal strengths which allows you to live an authentic and purposeful life. Most of my work has been in agencies and academia. I have worked with individuals in substance abuse recovery, individuals processing through traumas, individuals trying to manage overwhelming emotions and seeking coping skills, individuals who are wanting a healthier relationship with their body, and individuals who are going through transitions or career exploration.
College can be an exciting time, but it also comes with challenges—academic stress, big life transitions, relationship struggles, and pressure to figure out the future. Many students I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about how to manage their emotions and responsibilities. Some struggle with anxiety that makes it hard to focus, depression that drains their motivation, or past experiences that continue to impact their daily life. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I specialize in helping young adults work through anxiety, depression, and trauma using an integrative, practical approach. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, develop strategies to help you feel more in control, and work toward a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where you can be yourself, gain clarity, and build confidence in your ability to navigate life’s challenges.
People often struggle with feelings of sadness, anxiety, and emotional responses they do not understand. Counseling can be very helpful in identifying the source of these symptoms and undoing negative effects of previous life events. . I find great fulfillment in helping individuals to gain a better understanding of who they are at their core as well as how past events and circumstances have affected them in order to move towards genuine healing. One of the most important aspects of therapy that I am committed to is creating a safe space for all individuals. Therefore, I operate from a very open-minded standpoint and I am accustomed to addressing issues relevant among diverse populations. I have had the privilege of working with individuals of various ethnic backgrounds, faiths and spiritual orientations, gender identities, and sexual orientations. All are appreciated for their unique backgrounds and personal qualities and all are welcome!
The choice to seek therapy demonstrates an openness to growth and commitment to well-being. 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.
