About Me

Training is only one aspect of what makes a good therapist. I have the ability to empathize with clients and create a nonjudgmental atmosphere for counseling sessions and mental health therapy. I pray for wisdom each day as I ask God to help me see clients through His eyes and demonstrate His unconditional love through me.  With over 30 years of marriage and parenting, I understand the struggles of life firsthand and the traps our emotions can lead us into.  I can help you to detect land minds and disable before they blow up and permanently harm you and your relationships.

Work Background

As a substance abuse therapist, I co-run a Women's Intensive Outpatient Program for women who are in late-stage addictions and have served as primary therapist on two downriver drug court teams. My office in Taylor, Michigan, is a HPRP (Health Professional Recovery Program) provider that treats medical professionals with substance abuse and mental health issues. A few years ago, I felt called to open a practice near my home and church in Novi to work with individuals and couples.

Christian Counseling Origin

While in grad school, I became frustrated with the secular attempts to understand the dynamics of an interpersonal problem without offering any real solutions. I had recently dedicated my life to Christ and watched His transforming power change lives. As a result, my desire was to incorporate the spiritual component in order to help set people free from self-destructive patterns preventing them from living rich lives.

I assist clients in identifying the negative core beliefs about themselves that keep them stuck and allow God to change those beliefs to reflect His truth. Jesus offers hope to the hopeless and the power to change. I have a heart for individuals who are angry at God, feeling disenfranchised from the church, or afraid the roof will fall in if they attend. One of my passions is helping people learn the truth of God's grace and forgiveness for their lives. I have attended Oak Pointe Church in Novi, Michigan, for 15 years and facilitated many groups through their Restore Ministries.
