Anxiety
Anxiety can be both good and bad. It is useful in helping us to prepare for important events or dangerous situations. However, for many of us, anxiety can overtake our peace of mind and disrupt our lives. It can be debilitating to the point of interfering with relationships and daily functioning. Here are some commons symptoms of Anxiety.
- Though your life is pretty good, you continually have irrational fears that something could go wrong (impending doom).
- Your family and friends tell you that you “worry too much” and often dismiss you when you share your concerns with them.
- When presented with a fun activity your mind automatically thinks about what could go wrong. In other words, you look at every possible negative scenario that could happen.
- You have control issues and need to be in charge of the finances, prefer to drive, and/or make all the family decisions. You believe you’re the only one who can do things the “right” way.
- You have difficulty falling or staying asleep due to racing thoughts.
Depression
If you are experiencing any of the following or have thoughts of self-harm, you may have depression. The longer you try to ignore it, the more difficult it can become to treat. I use evidence-based treatments that will help you to feel happy again and return to your old self.
- Feeling "Trapped" or "Stuck"
- Difficulty making decisions
- Experiencing frequent crying spells
- Losing interest in activities you used to enjoy
- Thoughts of self-harm or feeling like you are a burden
Feeling Stuck
Are you feeling stuck? Maybe you're going through a challenging personal situation or have a difficult decision to make. Sometimes people simply need to talk through their thoughts and feelings in order to bring clarity and resolution to a problematic situation. That's where I come in.
I help normal, everyday people who are simply going through a difficult time. People who are going about their lives and come upon an obstacle that they're not sure how to surmount. Some of my clients come to me for emotional support or want insight and feedback so that they can navigate through certain situations.

Job Stress
Is your job stressing you out? Does your boss give you more work than you can handle? Are you adjusting to a new job or position? The constant downsizing of corporations in the last decade has resulted in many employees experiencing an increase their workload and/or fear losing their jobs. Many times, simply talking with a therapist can bring relief. Together, we can find ways to improve your work situation.
Life Transitions
We all experience transitional periods in our lives. Life transitions include getting married, changing careers, having a new baby, taking care of elderly parents, becoming an "empty-nester", relocating from another town, and/or going through a divorce.
These phase of life issues can be difficult to navigate through, especially if you are not feeling supported. Talking with a therapist can help you to de-stress and put it all in perspective.

Military Issues
When I meet with military veterans they initially say that they don't see a connection between their current symptoms and their military experience. However, once they complete treatment they have a better understanding of the true impact their deployments have had on their lives and relationships. If you have served overseas (even if you were not in-theater) and are experiencing any of the following symptoms, please call me. As you know, we are losing about 22 Service Members per day due to suicide.

I have attended over 60 hours of specialized training through the Star Behavioral Health Providers program to help military service members and their families who have experienced adjustment and combat issues.
Whether you were in the Michigan National Guard, Reserve Force, an OEF, OIF, OND or other Iraq/Afghanistan veteran, I can help bring relief. I understand the many “unique challenges” that military members and their families can experience. I also understand the importance of confidentiality and will work with you to protect your privacy.
