I am a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Michigan. I have been in the counseling field for over 20 years and enjoy working with people from all walks of life. I offer relaxation training, EMDR, active listening and hypnosis as tools the client can take with them to deal with the challenges and changes that life throws at us. I work closely with my clients to create a unique treatment plan based on their needs and wants.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session we will start with a brief introduction and then focus on what issues brought you into treatment. We will explore your understanding about what factors are causing the problem and your thoughts about what resolution would look like for you. We will review your history that is relevant to the problem. We will explore what your treatment goals are. At the end of the session, we will review the Session Rating Scale (SRS V.30) to measure your satisfaction with your first session and what things might be improved.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Over the years I have worked with many diverse populations of people from all walks of life. I welcome diversity in my practice and enjoy the privilege of learning from my clients. I am client centered and believe that each person has the capacity to grow and improve, if given the resources and environment to do so. I focus on creating an empathetic and nonjudgemental environment where it feels safe to disclose yourself.
