I have specialized training and certification in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Mindfulness, Trauma, Integrative Medicine for Mental Health, and Nutrition and Mood. I received my education and clinical training from Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I have lived and practiced, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, for over 9 years.

In the last couple of years, I have integrated eastern and western approaches to mental health and wellness. I have participated in extensive trainings for DBT, EMDR, integrative medicine and mental health, complex trauma, nutrition and mental health, and advanced mindfulness. I provide holistic counseling and assessment to adolescents & adults struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, mood instability, self-harm behaviors, trauma, life transitions, and lifestyle changes.
