Okemos Heritage Park & Virtual
Our Wellness & Counseling Provider in the Greater Lansing & Grand Rapids Michigan

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma-informed treatment. I have received training in Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD. As a therapist, I take a collaborative approach with my clients, focusing on their innate strengths, the power of positive thinking, and empowering them on their journey toward health and well-being.

I served as a first responder for over 16 years and later worked as a crisis clinician for more than 3 years. This experience has uniquely positioned me to help other first responders who are struggling with the impact of trauma and crisis work on their daily lives and relationships. Helping those who help others is one of my greatest passions as a professional.

At Spring Forest Counseling, I primarily work with adults to address trauma-related concerns, anxiety, and interpersonal issues using a cognitive-behavioral approach. In addition to supporting first responders, I have experience working with survivors of domestic violence, intimate-partner violence, and sexual violence.
