Hi, I’m Payton. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, adolescents, and young adults who are having a hard time with big feelings, stress, anxiety, sadness, or changes in their lives. Many of the kids and teens I work with feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or unsure how to talk about what’s going on, and that’s okay! My goal is to help them feel supported, heard, and less alone. I take a warm, down-to-earth approach and focus on building trust first. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” kids, but it’s about helping them understand their emotions, learn skills to cope with stress, and feel more confident being themselves. I often support young people who struggle with emotional outbursts, self-criticism, friendships, family changes, or school pressure. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, but I keep sessions practical and engaging. I also believe parents and caregivers play an important role, and I work collaboratively with families and care teams to support growth both in and outside of sessions. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where children and families can build resilience, strengthen communication, and move forward together.

I am a compassionate mental health counselor who graduated from Oakland University. I am passionate about helping others who deal with issues related to depression, anxiety, ocd, adhd, and addiction. My approach is eclectic meaning I will meet you where you are at and utilize many treatment modalities depending on what works for you. My goal is to help you gain clarity, identify your strengths and create a treatment plan that focuses on areas you would like to develop fully.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe exhale. A place where you do not have to perform, over-explain, or pretend you are fine. My work is grounded in compassion and genuine curiosity about who you are beneath the stress, trauma, expectations, and self-doubt. I earned my Master's degree from Palm Beach Atlantic University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and I am currently working on my Doctorate from National University. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, anger, PTSD, and self-esteem challenges. Whether you feel overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or simply exhausted from carrying too much for too long, you do not have to face it alone. Therapy with me is collaborative. You are the expert on your life. I help you slow things down, make sense of your experiences, and build tools that create meaningful change. Using evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs, we focus on strengthening emotional awareness, improving coping skills, and increasing resilience. My goal is not just symptom relief. It is growth. I want you to leave therapy with greater clarity, confidence, and a stronger connection to yourself. Healing is about reconnecting with the parts of you that have always been capable and worthy.
