 Hello,

Thank you for stopping by! I’m glad that you are here.

Here is a little bit about how and why

Flowers Haven Counseling Services, PLLC came to be:

Flowers Haven was an idea that I had years ago, when I was contemplating becoming a social worker. Flowers Haven did not have a name then, an opening date, or a location. Flowers Haven was an idea formed from a desire to provide a safe, caring environment for people who needed one.

The need for a safe, caring environment devoted to providing mental health services has become so evident over the past couple of years. With the added stress and strain of the recent past many of us have found ourselves feeling overwhelmed, anxious and depressed. Many of us are experiencing trauma symptoms or feel disconnected or numb. Many of us are just tired and need help figuring things out.

The effects of stress or trauma can happen to any of us, regardless of your age or gender, your beliefs or values, your political views or income level. The effects of trauma and stress can impact any of us, and has impacted all of us in one way or another.

Life has a funny way of pointing us in a direction when we had no plans of changing our current course. Flowers Haven is the result of an intersection between need, opportunity, desire…and an idea!

I am very excited and humbled to be “hanging a shingle” in Grayling, the community that has shaped me growing up, as well as my children.

I look forward to a long future in serving Grayling and the surrounding communities.
