Who this is for

Many of the people I see are thoughtful, capable adults who can describe their problem clearly and still feel stuck inside it.

Therapy here isn't a script. It is a slow, attentive conversation about how you got to be the way you are, and what it would take, in your real life, to move.

What I tend to work on with clients

The themes that bring most people here.

Anxiety that won't quiet down

The persistent hum in the background: overthinking, second-guessing, bracing for something hard to name.

Patterns in relationships

The same fight, the same distance, the same role you keep ending up in with the people you love.

Burnout & purpose

Doing everything right and still feeling depleted. Wondering what the work is actually for.

Big transitions

Career shifts, becoming a parent, mid-life questions, grief: the moments that re-arrange a life.

Inner critic & self-worth

The voice that has been hard on you for a long time, and what it would mean to live in less of its grip.

Identity & belonging

Faith, family, culture, queerness: the layered work of being who you are, in the rooms you're in.

If what's bringing you in isn't on this list, that is completely fine. It almost always isn't, in the end.

The arc of the work

How a course of therapy tends to unfold.

  1. 01

    Phone consultation

    A free 15-minute call. You share a bit about what's bringing you in; I share how I work. I'll let you know if I think it's a good fit.

    15 min · free
  2. 02

    Intake session

    A longer first conversation. I slow down to gather context: relationships, history, work, body, what you've already tried.

    60 min
  3. 03

    Early weeks

    Four to six sessions to begin mapping the patterns and strengths you're bringing in. I'm listening for the shape of the thing, not rushing to fix it.

  4. 04

    Ongoing work

    Steady weekly sessions, with periodic check-ins about pacing, focus, and what's actually changing in your life outside this room.

    open-ended
The approach
Adlerian therapy starts from a generous premise: you are not broken. You are a person making the most reasonable moves available, given a story you didn't entirely write. The work is to widen what's available.

She held space for the parts of me I had been avoiding for years. I left every session feeling more like myself.

Common questions

A few things people often ask.

  • I am out-of-network with all insurance plans. I can provide a monthly superbill that many clients submit to their insurance for partial reimbursement, depending on your plan's out-of-network benefits.

  • Most clients across Michigan see me via telehealth. In-person sessions are available at my Birmingham office on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The work is the same in either format; the choice tends to come down to logistics and what feels most settling for you.

  • It varies. Some people come for a specific season (a transition, a decision, a loss) and I work with them for three to six months. Many stay longer because the work keeps opening into new territory. I talk openly about pacing and re-evaluate with you throughout.

  • That is worth bringing into a first conversation. Often what didn't work tells me a lot about what you actually need: pacing, focus, the kind of conversation, the fit with the therapist. None of that is a verdict on you.

  • Sometimes. As of now, I have limited weekly openings. The consultation call is the best way to learn current availability and to be added to a short waitlist if needed.
