Trauma-Informed Counseling in Michigan (Online Therapy)

If you’re searching for trauma-informed counseling in Michigan, you may already know how deeply trauma can shape your nervous system. You might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that don’t reflect who you truly are.

Trauma-informed therapy is a thoughtful, integrative approach to healing that prioritizes safety. Grounded in an understanding of the nervous system, this work supports the gentle processing of past experiences while cultivating clarity, resilience, and a more anchored sense of self.

I offer online trauma therapy for adults across Michigan using an integrative approach that includes EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Therapeutic Yoga. This work is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in both clinical expertise and a deep respect for your lived experience.

Online Trauma Therapy Across Michigan

I provide virtual therapy to clients throughout Michigan, including Detroit, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and surrounding areas. Online therapy allows you to access consistent, high-quality care from the privacy of your own space.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, PTSD, relational trauma, or life transitions, we care. Therapy can help you move from survival mode into 

My Approach: Integrating EMDR, CBT, and Therapeutic Yoga

Healing from trauma often requires more than just talking. My approach integrates evidence-based modalities that support both cognitive and somatic healing.

EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

EMDR is a powerful, research-supported therapy that helps your brain process and resolve traumatic memories. Rather than reliving trauma, EMDR allows your nervous system to reprocess experiences so they no longer feel overwhelming or stuck.

This approach is especially effective for:

• PTSD and complex trauma

• Depression and Anxiety

• Distressing memories

• Negative self-beliefs rooted in past experiences

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. Together, we’ll explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. We will develop tools to create meaningful, sustainable change.

CBT can help with:

• Anxiety and overthinking

• Depression

• Perfectionism

• Stress management

Therapeutic Yoga (Somatic & Nervous System Support)

Trauma is not only stored in the mind, it lives in the body. Therapeutic yoga offers a way to reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, and build a sense of safety from within.

This may include:

• Breathwork

• Grounding practices

• Mindful movement

• Body awareness techniques

No prior yoga experience is needed. This work is always invitational and adapted to your comfort level.

Who I Work With

I work with adults navigating:

• Trauma and complex PTSD

• Anxiety and chronic stress

• Relationship and attachment wounds

• Life transitions and identity shifts

• Chronic illness and burnout

My practice is LGBTQIA2S+ affirming, trauma-informed, and rooted in a commitment to social justice. I recognize that healing does not happen in a vacuum. It is shaped by cultural, systemic, and relational contexts.

A Thoughtful, Depth-Oriented Approach to Healing

My background includes trauma-focused work in domestic violence and sexual assault organizations, as well as graduate training at Mayo Clinic. My background in Critical Theory, allows me to address your unique identity and societal systems of oppression.

This informs a therapeutic approach that is both clinically grounded and deeply attuned to power, identity, and lived experience. Therapy here is not about “fixing” you, it’s about creating the conditions for meaningful, lasting change.

What to Expect from Online Therapy

Sessions are held virtually in my Psychology Today waiting room and are designed to feel grounded, collaborative, and responsive to your needs. We move at a pace that honors your nervous system while still supporting healing.

Over time, clients often experience:

• Reduced anxiety and emotional overwhelm

• Greater self-understanding and clarity

• Increased capacity for connection and boundaries

• A stronger sense of internal stability
