All people have the potential to learn and grow towards their goals but change and growth rarely occur in a straight line. Being mean to yourself does not help, you have a story and it makes sense that you feel, believe, act and react as you do. If you want to believe these statements but are finding it difficult, I would love an opportunity to meet with you. I am a fully licensed psychologist and enjoy working with adolescents and adults with a wide range of concerns. I believe that therapy...
I am a cognitive-behaviorally trained clinical and neuropsychologist. I obtained my PhD from the University of Connecticut and did clinical psychology re-tooling at Western Michigan University. I work with diverse populations and tend to take a biological/behavioral approach to wellness and mental health. I have a history of working in the college setting as a therapist for a period of approximately seven years and thus I am familiar with the needs and special circumstances of the college-aged p...

However, what you can expect with my practice goes beyond the standard therapeutic experience. My practice is person-centered and non-judgmental across several subjects, domains, circumstances, and themes. I also pride myself in being multi-dimensional in identity politics; I am Trans-Affirmative, LGBTQ+ Affirmative, Sex-positive, Body positive, Kink-positive, and more. I approa...
Therapy is emotionally hard for everyone and most people at some point in their life have seen a therapist or could have benefited from seeing a therapist. The hardest step is the first contact.

My focus is on helping you discover your strengths as a way to live a happier, positive and more meaningful life. I believe in a compassionate, strength-base...
You’re trying your best, but life didn’t used to be this hard. Things aren’t going right. You notice it’s harder to be happy, to feel connected, or even to get out of bed in the morning.

You’ve pushed things down and ignored it, but you wonder how much longer you can do that. You’re used to fixing your problems on your own, but this time you ca...

To me, therapy is the act of helping people learn to experience their emotions safely in the moment, to be truly present and their genuine selves as they go about their day. I work with people to bring awareness to the impact of the past, to make conscious the connections and patterns that inform our everyday experience so that they can decide whether they want to continue with them or if they want to try something new. Therapy is the practice of getting to know yourself and working out what’s b...
"Going away to college" can be a wonderful and terrifying experience all at the same time: learning how to manage the many details of daily life while figuring out the big picture of who you are and what you want to do. It can also be a time of sorting out family relationships and choosing new paths. It can bring up a lot of anxiety, stress and self-doubt. We have many combined years of helping people through these experiences. If you would like intelligent, warm and useful support in naviga...

So, let's not call it "needing" therapy. What if we just say, we're feeling overwhelmed, depressed, anxious, conflicted, or isolated? If you're feeling any of those things, I can help. I often start treatment the 1st or 2nd session. After 6-12 sessions clients usually feel significantly better. For Calvin students, I am a short walk from campus. For GRCC or GVSU, I am on the public transit loop, a walk through my parking lot to the bus stop. I'd be happy to meet with anyone over the phone ...
