Anxiety Therapists in Fowlerville, MI

***OPENINGS*** Online Videochat/Telemental Health Clients AND In-Person Equine-Assisted Therapy *** Welcome! Therapy is a process of self-discovery. The decision to seek therapy is a sign of strength and an indication that you are willing to invest in yourself! My goal for each session is to create a warm and inviting atmosphere where together we can explore and discover insights about your life, the root cause of stumbling blocks, and the means to help you heal, change, and grow. Whether you have lifelong problems or perhaps more current issues you are dealing with, I believe there is always a path available for change.**

Your present circumstances don’t determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. My clients struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions, exposure to traumatic events, and PTSD. These symptoms often leave them feeling helpless, afraid, and like things will never get better. Even though you want to run. Even though it's heavy and difficult. Even though you're not quite sure of the way through. Healing happens by feeling. To work on yourself is the best thing you can do. You will see, in the end you're going to make peace with yourself.

Life is complicated and full of challenges. No wonder, then, that nearly everyone, at one time or another, can benefit from psychotherapy. Particularly if you are struggling with depression, anxiety, or life problems that threaten your sense of well-being on a daily basis, you owe it to yourself to learn how to be happier. In addition to alleviating the suffering caused by mental and emotional disorders, I have the knowledge base and skills to help you become your best self--to move not only from misery to greater well-being, but also beyond that to flourishing.

Are you feeling sad, overwhelmed, uncomfortable or bored with life? Do you find yourself having unfulfilling, difficult or short-lived relationships? Are you using alcohol or drugs to help with "feeling bad"? Does anxiety and depression take away the peace and joy in your life? Do you sometimes feel as if you are simply stuck and just"going through the motions" and not sure where you're headed? Is something is lacking in your life, but you aren't quite sure what it is. Are you having difficulty dealing with the effects of having grown up in a dysfunctional home?

I have been a licensed professional counselor for over ten years. In that time I have had the pleasure of helping many people with depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, suicidal thoughts and many other life issues. I will always accept you for who you are and where you are, and will give you the tools to help you achieve your goals.

As a therapist, my goal is to come alongside you in your courageous journey to improve your mental and emotional wellbeing. Clients that I work with experience anxiety, depression, have experienced trauma, struggle with transitions in life, want to improve their relationships, and face other challenges. These are all things that can be worked through in our treatment together! I am here to meet you where you are at, help you see your strengths, and begin the process of growth.

I believe that LIFE, like therapy, is about pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone and embracing growth by allowing yourself to learn new things that will help you develop new behaviors and thinking patterns. As a therapist, it is my job to help assist and guide you through your anxieties, depression, PTSD, grief, and loss, along with emotional regulation/anger management so you can learn to outgrow your current self.

I believe that health and wellness are best achieved by addressing the whole person, not simply the condition, adverse event or illness/disease. This holistic approach to care respects the individuality of persons, their environments and their physical and emotional needs.

Does your life seem filled with conflict? Do you struggle with persistent painful emotions? Have you found yourself entrapped by bad habits? These are a sample of some of the painful experiences many may have. Each day we hope that something will change. It isn't circumstances that must change...but who we are. One day, we tell ourselves, we will finally emerge out of the shadows of our struggles. At LPS, therapy not only addresses immediate problems, but helps build greater insight, personal skill building and thinking tools as essential steps toward that fulfilling life and successful future.
