I genuinely enjoy working with adult men and women, as well as young adults who are ready to explore their experiences. I find great fulfillment in helping people recognize that they are not defined by anxiety, depression, or trauma, and that their lives have value and meaning. I also enjoy helping children and families develop healthy patterns, strengthen relationships, and create healthy boundaries.

You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We'll move at a pace that feels right for you, and I'll walk alongside you throughout the healing process. If I'm not the right fit, our team will help you find someone who is.

I am very passionate and committed to the counseling philosophy of building trustworthy relationships with my clients while ensuring safety and confidentiality. It is my duty to ensure my clients know that I genuinely care about them and the challenges they face.

This is my first time in therapy. What can I expect?

In therapy, you can expect a welcoming and supportive space where we’ll work together to explore your feelings, set personal goals, and develop coping strategies for challenges like anxiety, stress, grief, and more. I’ll tailor our approach using techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to meet your unique needs, empowering you to make positive changes at your own pace.

How do I get started with therapy?

The first step is to fill out the contact form with your information to the best of your ability. One of our intake specialists will then reach out to answer any questions you may have and schedule a brief phone consultation. During this call, we’ll ask you to share a little about yourself and discuss what you’d like to focus on in therapy!

Do you accept Insurance?

Unity Counseling offers a wide range of accepted insurances such as Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Optum, Priority Health, UMR, and United Healthcare. Along with accepting some Medicaid and Medicare! Unity Counseling also offers out of network, private pay avalbile on a sliding scale. If you don't see your insurance or have questions, please give us a call (616-439-1866) to learn more!

How often would we meet?

There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to therapy. In the beginning, we typically recommend meeting on a weekly basis. This gives us a chance to get to know one another, and as our work together develops, we encourage personal assessments so we can create a schedule that suits your specific needs.
