Find a Therapist in Trenton, MI

Finding a therapist who specializes in emetophobia can be challenging. You may have spent years trying to manage your fears on your own or working with therapists who focused on general anxiety without directly addressing your fear of vomiting. I specialize in helping women with emetophobia and OCD through evidence-based treatment, particularly Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ERP involves gradually approaching feared situations, thoughts, and sensations while learning to respond differently to anxiety and uncertainty. Depending on your individual concerns, treatment may address fears related to nausea, food, stomach viruses, travel, pregnancy, or caring for sick family members. I understand that exposure therapy can sound intimidating, especially when you have spent years doing everything possible to avoid vomiting. ERP does not require you to intentionally vomit. We work together to develop a treatment plan that considers your concerns, goals, and readiness while helping you gradually face situations that fear has made difficult. Therapy is about more than reducing anxiety. It is about being able to travel, enjoy meals, care for your family, pursue your goals, and make decisions based on what matters to you rather than what you fear. I offer in-person therapy in Jackson, Michigan, and online counseling for clients located in Michigan and North Carolina.

I offer therapy for adolescents, adults, and couples who are tired of coping on the surface and want deeper, more lasting change. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in painful relationship patterns, chronic anxiety, unresolved trauma, burnout, or a life that looks functional on the outside but feels disconnected on the inside. My approach is grounded, relational, and depth-oriented. I help clients not only manage symptoms but also understand the underlying patterns, beliefs, and emotional injuries that keep them from living with clarity, stability, and connection. My work integrates practical, evidence-based strategies with deeper exploration. Depending on a client’s needs, I may draw from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), psychodynamic therapy, attachment-focused work, and trauma-informed interventions. In sessions, I help clients build insight, strengthen boundaries, improve communication, process difficult experiences, and respond to life with more intention rather than reactivity. I believe meaningful therapy should be both honest and useful. It should help people make sense of their story while also giving them concrete ways to move forward. I often work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relational distress, self-worth concerns, and major life transitions. I also have a strong interest in supporting first responders, crime survivors, and individuals who carry significant responsibility while silently struggling. Therapy with me is a place to slow down, tell the truth about what is not working, and begin building a life rooted in meaning, connection, and emotional steadiness. I would be honored to work with you on your journey towards healing.

I practice these techniques and modalities myself. Part of my commitment to you is that I will never ask you to do something I haven't done myself. Whatever you are going through, trouble in your relationships, feeling exhausted by life's demands, or anything else, I want to hear about it. Together, we will shift how you experience life's challenges so that you can begin to think, feel, and live the way you know you are meant to.

I would say a common trait in folks I work with is the desire to know oneself in a deep and meaningful way. I tend to work with people in pain or struggling with something emotionally. Sometimes, this is an actual mood disorder, like depression or anxiety. Other times, people come to treatment with relationship difficulties, difficult life transitions, or just problems with feelings in some way. In my experience, every person's treatment is completely unique. We all come to treatment with different pasts, family histories, and presentations. This is part of therapy that I really appreciate. Everyone is different. Our feelings can be intense sometimes. Many times our inclination is get rid of bad feelings. I think therapy can help one transform their feelings and relationships. I work with many people from all sorts of backgrounds and presentations. In treatment, you and I will try to understand your mind. I will ask you to start talking wherever feels comfortable, and I will make observations, ask questions, or just listen. The idea is for us to help you put words to your feelings. I want to hear anything and everything that is on your mind. Talking about hard things gives them less weight. You do not have to carry around emotional pain. It can be changed Our work together will be collaborative. I will encourage you to talk about what comes to mind while we are in session. In this way, we are trying to understand what is happening for you on a more in-depth level and seeing what your mind associates. The point is to resolve conflicts that are less conscious, so they do not have to keep one in a painful or agitated state. I will sometimes encourage more frequent sessions when I believe they would be useful. I think of it similarly to learning an instrument: the more practice, the better. It is never a requirement and we will talk about it. I have a number of years of experience. Please feel free to send a message or call. You will be directly connected to me. We will work on it together.

Choose the therapist, not the therapy. Quality mental health care is a real, human exchange; an opportunity to explore, strengthen, and change aspects of who you are. When psychotherapy is effective, the therapist and patient are creating openings, not closures. This is what heals. Therapy should be deeply personal and focused on true psychological change: at the heart of meaningful psychotherapy is a meaningful relationship. That is what we seek to develop with all our patients.
