A healing journey that starts with knowing your inherent goodness.



​When you present yourself to the world, are you being defined by what everyone else thinks you should be, or have you defined for yourself who you want to be and how you want to fill that space in the world? 

We believe that knowing your inherent goodness is the indispensable starting point for your healing journey. This gives you the framework and foundation to tackle the tougher issues. We'll be your coach and your guide on this journey, your cheerleader and your safe space to unpack the difficult things.

We can be your guide in helping you acknowledge and address the things that are inhibiting your path to embracing that goodness.

I want you to be the person you love being. I can help you acknowledge issues, recognize the strengths within yourself, and take responsibility for the journey towards healing.
My goal is that, because of the work we do together, you don’t have to come to me anymore because you have what you need inside of you.

I’ll be your coach and your guide on this journey, your cheerleader and your safe space to unpack the difficult things.

I have training and experience in the US and in India helping individuals and couples from diverse backgrounds with relationship and parenting issues, substance abuse, identity, depression, and severe mental illness.

​When you’re ready to do the work that takes you on a journey to healing, I’m here for you. I’ll be your coach and your guide on this journey, your cheerleader and your safe space to unpack the difficult things.

​My hope for you is that – because of the work we do together – you don’t have to come to me anymore, because you have what you need inside of you to handle the stresses and personal challenges life throws at you.

Hi! My name is Trevor, I am a graduate from Central Michigan University’s counseling program with a specialization in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and I am excited for the opportunity of working with you. 

By reading this you have already taken the first steps towards healing  and I can help you on this journey by providing a safe space to voice your concerns, by accepting you with unconditional positive regard, and by identifying underlying strengths so that you can reach your treatment goals. 

If you are unsure about the changes that you want to make, don’t worry, I will meet you where you are at. I will use motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and DBT-informed approaches to help you navigate your journey.

I have experience working with individuals that struggle with concerns regarding depression, anxiety, substance use, and severe and persistent mental illness. I also have experience working with adolescents and couples.

When I am not working I enjoy spending time with my wife and two dogs, Sigmund and Layla. I also enjoy traveling, reading, writing, creating content, playing video games, and being outside. 
​
I can’t wait to meet you and begin working with you!

You Are Not Alone

​Personal growth and transformation is the result of the work we do to move beyond personal challenges.
Doing that work is easier when you have a co-pilot to guide and support you. That's why l've developed my practice. I want to provide the support I wish I had at critical points in my career and my health.

I've worked to curate resources proven by both science and my own lived experience intended to effect positive and sustainable change. I hope that through our work together you will learn, grow, flourish, and find the freedom to step into the best possible version of you.

​Why the Lotus?​

The lotus symbolizes your return to wholeness. You were born as an innocent, beautiful, untainted being. The lotus is the you that is still there. You can fix and heal the broken pieces and come back to what you are – what you were truly meant to be – to bring that beautiful, innocent being out of the muck.

I grew up in a remote village on the border of India in Nepal. The village where we lived had a lot of mucky spaces, especially the ponds. However, that caused my eyes to be drawn to the beautiful pink or white lotuses in the ponds, growing up from the dark muck under the surface.
​
I am drawn to people for the same reason I was drawn to the lotuses – because in each person, like the lotus growing up from the mud, there is always something beautiful inside, waiting to be fully tapped into.
Trauma is the muck. Whether your trauma is being dealt a bad hand, or not getting messages that you’re desired and loved and belong, or being hit with trauma out of the blue – after trauma, it feels like you can’t be whole anymore.
