My clients describe me as:

My clients describe me as welcoming, easy to talk to, and warm hearted.

Something to know about my approach is:

Together, we will:

Together we will look at the world through your lense and find where some disconnects may be making your life a challenge. We will explore why the disparity is there, what it means and how to fix it in a way that makes sense and is attainable for you

I specialize in working with people who:

I am most passionate about working with adults who have experienced the loss of a loved one, including a loss from suicide. We can work together to accept the loss, grieve your loved one and build a new routine to include memories and new experiences

I became a therapist because:

I have experienced the paralyzing affects of depression and anxiety, including panic attacks. I want to assist others to grow and heal as I have.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

My office is located in Holland in a cozy setting. We offer a beverage bar where you can make yourself a coffee or tea or enjoy a cold bottle of water

More about me and my practice:

I am more of a "night owl," so the majority of my sessions are in the afternoon or evenings, as well as some Saturday morning hours. I also have a link listed where clients can schedule their own appointments listed on my website.
