Services in Michigan

Individual Therapy — Most people come to individual therapy with something specific weighing on them — anxiety that will not quiet down, a low mood that keeps returning, the after-effects of something that happened to them, a loss, or a transition they did not choose.

Relationships — couples and marriage counseling — Couples therapy can be sought for a multitude of reasons, and one member of the couple may be more in favor than the other to seek out professional help.

Trauma Therapy & EMDR — Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy designed to help the brain finish processing those memories, so they become part of your history instead of something you keep reliving.

Executive Counseling — Executive counseling offers a private place to talk through workplace stress, hard decisions, and the pressure to hold everything together.

Serving West Michigan and beyond

The practice serves Grand Rapids, Wyoming, Kentwood, Grandville, Walker, and East Grand Rapids, and clients throughout Michigan. The practice also serves Charleston and Greenville, South Carolina.
