Please call me Rhi. I graduated from Michigan State University and received my Master’s of Social Work from the University of Michigan. I’ve been practicing in the mental health field for 23 years. I live in the area with my teenage daughters, my partner, our pug dog, and three very spoiled cats. I love being in or near the water and taking in the quiet beauty of a great sunset.

I’m passionate about supporting students as they navigate life’s challenges, and I work hard to create a warm, safe, and inclusive space where you can show up exactly as you are. In our work together, I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and a person-centered approach. I believe therapy should be tailored to each individual, and together we can focus on what feels most meaningful and helpful to you.

I have experience supporting students with depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal ideation, personality disorders, life transitions, interpersonal concerns, self-esteem, gender identity, LGBTQ+ experiences, trauma, academic or work stress, substance use, time management, disabilities, grief and loss, ADHD, and Autism Spectrum Disorders.

I view therapy as an opportunity to gain insight, build effective coping skills, and move toward living the best version of your life. It offers a confidential space to process what’s going on, make sense of your story, and begin shaping the future you want.

I’m also deeply committed to advocating for students with disabilities and ensuring they receive the fair and equitable accommodations they deserve.
