Our counselors offer counseling for teens in Detroit, MI

I'm a Licensed Counselor with 3 years of experience in the mental health field. I'm passionate about helping adolescents, children, adults, and families reach their goals in order to live a more fulfilled life. I completed my Master of Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Western Michigan University. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe space where you can feel relaxed and move at your own pace. I offer a client-centered approach and believe you are the expert in your own life. I'm here to help guide you toward your goals.

I offer a non-judgmental approach and a safe space where we'll work together to help you navigate the roadmap to your life and be the healthiest version of yourself. I utilize various approaches including mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy skills.

Life, unfortunately, has no road map or single, final destination. Many find themselves searching for counseling when they feel lost, defeated, depressed, anxious, or hurt. I'm here to offer a safe space to those looking to make a change. I focus on helping you reach your goals by exploring behaviors and thought patterns. I focus heavily on helping you learn skills and tools to reduce your stress and empower you to make change where it counts. If you're ready to work, please schedule an appointment with me today.

I specialize in using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients navigate anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

My approach is collaborative and practical, blending evidence-based strategies with genuine connection. Together, we will build skills to manage distress, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe therapy should be a space where you don’t have to shrink or codeswitch—where your identity is affirmed and your voice matters. Whether you're working through daily stressors or deeper emotional wounds, I aim to support you with empathy, honesty, and tools you can actually use in your everyday life.
