Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Last Updated 30+ days ago

The best thing about my work is being able to come alongside others and offer compassionate, realistic support. I love to work with college-aged individuals as that is a time of great change and great opportunity for new experiences. There can be a lot of stressors piling up while in higher education, and sometimes having a safe, non-judgmental space to process can be super helpful. If you are dealing with anxiety, depression, academic-related stressors, body image issues, or relationships issues, I would love to be a support person for you. You will find my approach kind and casual, while also being very honest. I am taking new clients right now and can meet virtually or in-person in my office in Grand Rapids.
