About My Clients

I chose the name Compass Counseling & Coaching for my practice because, at times, everyone needs a compass to help guide them. I have a holistic approach to counseling because no two people are the same. I see each client as an individual, requiring their own unique approach. I use a variety of counseling techniques, encouraging self-awareness and the acceptance of one's own responsibilities in their personal journey. The more we know ourselves, the better we can respond to situations.

My Background and Approach

I have been a licensed professional counselor in the state of Michigan since 2009. I am a member of the Michigan Mental Health Counselors Association and was appointed to their board in 2021. I have a doctorate in higher education administration from the University of Toledo, a masters in Counseling from the University of La Verne and a bachelors in Sociology from Alma College. I also hold a supervisory certification in order to provide supervision to Limited License Professional Counselors and have been certified in negotiation and mediation.
