Hi! My Name is Eilynn (Ay-leen). I am so happy for you and this step that you have taken in your journey for growth. I look forward to the opportunity to meet with you! I am passionate about helping people find their path in life and reach their full potential. I enjoy working with clients using Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Person-Centered Counseling. Through these techniques, we will work together to find ways to fulfill your goals and aspirations!
I enjoy working with individuals from all backgrounds. As a first-generation Brazilian American, I have had the opportunity to immerse myself in diverse cultural settings. This is an experience that has broadened my academic, cultural and social horizons. Studying and living in a different country afforded me the chance to understand my cultural background and expanded my ability to understand the perspectives of others.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology as well as a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Andrews University, Michigan, USA. I am a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan and I am being supervised by Rommel Johnson, Ph.D. Dr. Johnson has over a decade of counseling experience and is licensed in the states of Michigan and Texas, USA. Dr. Johnson is also the Clinical Director of Eurisko Counseling, Training and Recovery in St. Joseph, Michigan where I currently practice.
I have worked with individuals from various backgrounds including race, gender, sexual orientation, age, ability, and nationality. This includes individuals who are dealing with depression, anxiety, career indecision, eating disorders, couples, family, parenting, post-partum depression, intellectual/developmental disabilities, and other mental health issues.
I am looking forward to getting to know you! Therapy is not only for those who are experiencing extreme hardships in life. It is an experience that can benefit anyone who is looking to experience growth. Whether you have come here because you are experiencing severe emotional pain or you are simply looking for a safe space to grow, I am here for you.
