Therapy for Anxiety, Depression, and Chronic Pain
In-person near Grand Rapids, MI and online in 43 PsyPact states
When you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or chronic pain, the weight becomes overwhelming.
Despair has become the norm. Your thoughts never get quiet. It’s hard to get out of bed each day.
You’re exhausted.
Your relationships with the people you love have become flat or strained. Maybe you don’t even remember what it feels like to experience love. With stressors that are personal, global, and political, the weight of the world has felt too heavy.
You’re seeking relief.
Therapy makes a difference.
In your work with me, you’ll get to the root of your concerns while also learning practical coping skills for managing the day-to-day challenges that you face. Using evidence-based counseling counseling (blended with a faith-based perspective, if you would like), I will help you feel better.
You will find that over time, your mood lifts, your outlook brightens, and your relationships become richer.
You’ll lead the way on what is the most important for you to talk about in therapy, while I will provide consistent expertise in a kind, nonjudgmental, and compassionate environment. I’ll check in with you occasionally about progress to ensure we’re on track toward your goals.
This is therapy that works.

What to Expect.
-
Free Phone Consult
We’ll start with a brief phone call at no cost to you. I want to make sure you feel comfortable talking with me, that you’re clear on how it all works, and that I feel confident I can help you. You can ask any questions that help you feel ready for the good work of therapy.
I get it - finding the right therapist is a big deal, and you need to know I’m the right fit before you can feel comfortable jumping in.
-
Intake Session
You’ll fill out online paperwork ahead of time. Then in our first session (either in-person or online) you’ll fill me in on what you’ve been through, what you’re experiencing now, and what you hope to get out of therapy. In response, I’ll share initial reflections and assessment, as well as recommendations specific to you.
You’ll leave with some relief at getting started and having a better feel for what to expect.
-
Ongoing Sessions
I’ll hold a weekly therapy time for you, which will be 50 minutes long. Once you’re feeling better, you can choose if you would like to decrease frequency to biweekly or less as you begin integrating your therapy skills into your life on a more independent basis.
You can let me know along the way what’s working for you so I can make adjustments as needed - this time is for you!
