Addiction Therapists in Michigan

My healthcare career started in 2012 working in addiction medicine which I quickly grew to love. This morphed into psychiatry which I now practice (and also love) full time. I enjoy working with all shapes and sizes of people aged 14 and older including (and especially) the LGBTQ+ population. I have an additional certification in perinatal care and love working with pre-moms, moms-to-be and post-moms! My other special interest is the treatment of OCD. I see many, many patients struggling with anxiety, depression, mood disorders like bipolar and everything in between (ADHD included). In general, I am a solution-focused provider. This means I am a bitand to the point. Lets find the problem and fix it. I am also a bit on the med conservative side. Lets get you living your best life on the least amount of medications- this can be 0, this can be 5. Everyone is unique in their own way.

If you are curious, hesitant, or intimidated about seeking therapy, I am here to help. I create a nonjudgemental, safe and confidential space where you can freely express yourself without fear, judgment or criticism. This space is dedicated solely to your well-being, where you can explore your emotions, build your self-esteem and cultivate self-compassion. If you value a creative and holistic approach to therapy, we may integrate art or other expressive techniques like mindfulness. I am passionate about trauma and women's issues. My training and experience allows me to navigate the complex needs of survivors of all ages, including young survivors. One area of particular interest to me is the mind-body-spirit approach. These therapies focus on the body's wisdom in healing trauma and provide a holistic approach to recovery. As part of Wellspring Therapeutic Partners, I regularly consult with our team of therapists, prescribers, and psychologists who specialize in a variety of areas. I can provide seamless referrals for medication management or testing, though we always welcome and encourage you to keep working with your outside provider if helpful.

Many of my clients come to me feeling alone, unfulfilled, and wanting something different out of their relationships. They are often feeling burnt out, struggling with impulsivity & procrastination, feeling “not good enough,” holding themselves to unrealistic standards, feeling weighed down by what’s happening in the world, repeating the same unhealthy relationship patterns again and again, and confused about who they are after spending so much time trying to be something else for other people.
