“I chose this work because I believe in the strength and resilience people carry—even when they don’t see it in themselves. It’s an honor to walk with clients through both their pain and progress and to help them reconnect with hope, purpose and healing along the way.”
Holly integrates a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to each client’s needs, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care. Her background in addiction and co-occurring disorders allows her to work effectively with individuals navigating complex emotional, relational, and behavioral challenges. Holly’s clients often discover while working with her that they develop new ways of understanding themselves, learn skills to manage stress and cravings, and make changes that support long-term recovery and emotional well-being.
Holly is a Licensed Master’s Level Social Worker (LMSW) and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC) at the Pine Rest Kalamazoo Clinic. In addition to her clinical practice, she participates in Faith Community Outreach, an initiative within Pine Rest that seeks to connect area clergy, churches, and ministries to services available from Pine Rest; as well as develop new services specifically designed to benefit the faith community.
