Greetings,
Thank you for visiting my site. I hope you find the information helpful as you begin the process to find a therapist that is the right fit for you. I think it is helpful to have a sense of who your therapist is, so here you will learn more about me. My licensure is in Marriage and Family Therapy. I chose this specific therapeutic lens because it looks at the systems (family, cultural, religious, ect...) individuals come from and how that can shape us and impact our relationships positively or negatively. I worked several years for a mental health facility working with individuals at different levels of care and with multiple age groups. Due to relocating and my own military background I began to work with military members and their families through deployments, reintegration and military lifestyle difficulties.
I knew I eventually wanted to join a private practice group to use my expertise, experiences and training. I am passionate about working with individuals, families, premarital, couples, and military members as they work towards healthy life choices and relationships. I am excited to be apart of the Chosen PLLC practice in Kalamazoo, Michigan where we believe in empowering individuals to reach their full potential.
Personally I love spending time with my family of 7, which includes two golden doodles. I also enjoy running, yoga, listening to podcasts (which sometimes I recommend to my clients), and doing various home projects. I also have served in the Air National Guard for 17 years and am married to an active duty Army soldier, which is one reason why military members and their families are an area of focus for me. I look forward to doing some meaningful work with you.
