Experience

 

After graduating with my bachelors degree I worked closely with children, administering psychological tests to help clarify diagnosis. While working on my masters degree, I was able to work with children and teens as an Applied Behavior Analysis technician to administer behavior interventions to those diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. For my master’s internship, I worked with children, teens, young adults, and adults. I was able to hone in on my skills as a play therapist and continue using those skills thereafter. 

My practice is dedicated to adolescents, young adults, and college students, encompassing a broad spectrum of mental health challenges. I specialize in play therapy, providing tailored interventions for children with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social anxiety Disorder, ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder.
 

Education

Masters in Clinical Psychology, Western Michigan University

Bachelors in Psychology, Ferris State University 

Personal Statement 

My primary goal in therapy is to create a nonjudgmental, safe space for expressing feelings and emotions. I am deeply committed to helping children aged 8 and older with issues related to school, peers, anxiety, executive functioning, and self-esteem through play therapy. Additionally, I enjoy supporting young adults as they navigate life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My approach is warm and compassionate, focusing on engaging children creatively (Slime, books, games, etc!!) to foster enthusiasm and interest in their therapeutic journey.

I am a dedicated therapist passionate about enhancing the well-being of children, adolescents, and young adults.Each client I have worked with has enriched my understanding of resilience, courage, and the importance of human connections.

I am eager to use my skills to help young individuals not only overcome challenges but also thrive. If you’re looking for a therapist who truly cares about the well-being of young minds, please contact me.

As a Limited Licensed Psychologist in the state of Michigan I receive ongoing supervision from a fully licensed psychologist.
