Biography: Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. Since you have taken the brave first step in seeking help through the challenges you face, it is now important to find the right therapist. That is because having a strong relationship with your therapist helps to increase the progress that you will make. Below you will find information about my experience and my approach in therapy to better assist you in your decision. I am a clinical social worker licensed in Michigan. In 2015, I started providing counseling in outpatient settings and more recently with online platforms. I have worked with a variety of people from children to older adults in both rural and urban settings. My clients have identified various concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, chronic illness, and grief and loss. Prior to working as a therapist, I worked as a case manager for seven years with older adults, people with disabilities, and veterans. My approach with clients is both understanding and interactive. I believe that therapy is a partnership between the therapist and client. The therapeutic perspectives that I work from include person-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I also utilize mindfulness and relaxation exercises during therapy. Together, we will create a treatment plan that is best suited to you and your situation. I would be honored to assist you on your journey through the current struggles in your life. I look forward to working with you!

Biography: I am licensed as a psychologist in independent practice by both Michigan, where I lived most of my life, and Ohio, where I now live. I also provide supervision for psychologists with a Master's degree. For many years, I have helped people deal with the difficult emotions of anxiety, stress, frustration and anger, sadness and grief and sometimes depression, and who may experience occasional or constant difficulty communicating with each other. I have helped parent and child or adult child communicate better, siblings communicate better, and couples communicate better. I believe that every person has value and that blame is toxic and is best avoided. I help people stop "beating themselves up." I will not judge you. Rather, together we can explore ways to think differently about what is causing you distress and emotional pain, whether it is yourself, others, your environment, recent events, or all of the above. I have a humanistic philosophy and often use the tools offered by cognitive behavior therapy. I also find that teaching mindfulness and meditation helps many people. Learning to recognize and accept your emotions but using thinking rather than immediately acting on your emotions works better than burying them. I promise to listen carefully and to respect you. I look forward to working with you.

Care Philosophy: Talkspace partners with care providers who find satisfaction in providing therapy in a way that prioritizes the client's convenience and preferences. Because all therapy takes place virtually, through messaging, live virtual sessions, or both, providers can communicate more frequently and casually in comparison to traditional face-to-face therapy. Talkspace treatment methods are supported by scientific research and are committed to non-judgmental care that is inclusive and respectful of cultural and other identities. Talkspace patients are matched with the best provider for them based on their needs and availability during the registration process. Once matched with a provider, patients may change at any time, and may contact support to request a specific provider. *The above is attributed to Talkspace and not the provider.*
