I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share my background, as I believe my experience may be of value to you. With 37 years of lived experience alongside family members facing severe mental challenges, I have gained a deep understanding of the unique struggles that individuals and families encounter in these situations. My professional journey in the mental health field spans over 12 years, during which I have worked closely with various communities, including those transitioning from in-patient mental health facilities. Having grown here and choosing to raise my family in this community, I have a strong connection to the values of country life. My experiences working on local farms have further enriched my perspective and resilience. The mental health field chose me, offering a sense of purpose in navigating my own life challenges. I am passionate about helping individuals find their path towards healing, and I bring experience in both addiction and recovery. Additionally, I am committed to creating an affirming environment for everyone, including those in the LGBTQ community. I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss how I can support you or your loved ones in navigating these challenging times. Please feel free to reach out at your convenience.

I am a licensed clinical social worker committed to having a successful therapeutic relationship with clients. I like to empower and collaboratively work with clients to address their concerns, reach their personal goals and optimal potentials. I've always wanted to help people and I've always been a really social person; therapy allows me to do both and serve clients who may not have sought therapy before. Being a Black woman, I understand that people who look like me are least likely to seek therapy; this is one of the reasons I chose to become a therapist. I love interacting with clients from all different backgrounds as this widens my therapeutic practice. I received my undergraduate degree from FSU and my MSW degree from FIU.

My approach to therapy is person-centered, thoughtful, and exploratory. I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. I tailor my work to each individual, recognizing that everyone’s experiences and needs are different. I take a holistic view of mental health. This means we will look not only at your thoughts and emotions, but also at your environment, relationships, and daily routines. I believe these areas all play an important role in how we feel and function. I also have experience supporting clients who are exploring medication as part of their care. I can help you prepare for conversations with psychiatrists and think through what options might feel right for you. At the same time, I often focus on building skills and making meaningful life changes as a foundation for long-term well-being. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change.

Over 15 years ago, I began my work as a licensed professional counselor. Since then, I’ve worked with diverse individuals and consistently seen that when people are empowered with the right information, they can often find the best solutions to their challenges. Using a range of evidence-based therapies, I guide purposeful conversations and reflection to support that process. I believe in discussing difficult topics with compassion and without judgment. Because you are the expert on your own life, collaboration is central to our work. Together, we develop practical and creative solutions, remain flexible as needs evolve, and build a safe, trusting therapeutic relationship focused on your goals. My experience includes four years working primarily with children and teenagers facing anxiety, mood concerns, relationship challenges, stress, and future planning. Prior to that, I worked in community mental health supporting clients ages 11 to 99 with a wide range of mental health concerns. I approach each client with respect for their resilience and capacity for growth. My role is to offer clarity, tools, and guidance as we work together to build confidence, develop strategies, and create meaningful progress toward your goals.

I’m Steven, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I have 7+ years of experience working with all ages of clientele. I’ve always had a passion for helping others work toward their goals and I've found that people can get stuck into a rut of "just surviving life" and not living it for a variety of reasons. My goal in being a therapist (and in life) is to help restore the "Joy of Living" back to my clients helping them be able to manage emotions and thoughts more consistently, improving satisfaction within key relationships, and helping clients heal/process through past trauma or barriers they perceive to be in the way of being able to live life the way they want too. On a personal note, I'm 36 years old, got married in 2020, and have two very needy, but lovely cats within my household. I'm a pretty big geek (board games, video games, fantasy sports, etc....) and pretty competitive.

"Reconnect with your inner Wisdom." - Frank Anderson We come into this world knowing ourselves, knowing what we are about, who we mean to be. From the beginning, we are pressured to become what the world dictates we should be. We are pushed from our truth and molded into the roles expected of us. Family, religion, the educational system, friends, society, media, politics-all force us to deny the self and accept the roles thrust upon us. We are forced to deny ourselves, to forget ourselves. We are forced off our path. Inside you may know what is wrong, you may know what you need, and you may be afraid to claim it. Or you may only feel that something is not right: something hurts. This is the unbearable pain of being separated from our own inner knowing. This separation can look like anxiety, depression, grief, shame, anger, pain, guilt and so forth. My work is to help you back to yourself. We do this together through talk, through the creative use of therapeutic modalities, through releasing pain and embracing truth, to being present to what we find and what you decide you need to do to step into your authentic being.

When we begin our work together, the first thing you’ll notice is a "take your shoes off" atmosphere. I believe therapy works best when it feels less like a clinical exam and more like a candid, over-the-coffee-table conversation. This is a space for an honest, active partnership where we bypass clinical clichés to get to the root of what is actually happening in your life. We all carry an "internal blueprint"—a set of old scripts and historical templates that dictate how we react to the world. Often, we don’t realize these blueprints exist until we find ourselves hitting the same walls in our relationships, our careers, or our own self-perception. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to investigate these patterns and move toward real, observable change. The Approach My approach focuses on the connection between your history and your current actions, supported by the rigor of behavioral science. My background in pharmacology has taught me that while biology is vital, it isn’t the boss. The science shows us that our brains are profoundly social; therefore, the real work happens within the relationship we build together. We treat our sessions as a live map to identify and rewrite the ingrained habits that no longer serve you. The Impact The goal is to move you from a state of reaction to a state of grounded agency. We work to restore your capacity for intentional action and give you the clarity needed to be a deliberate, authentic presence in your own life.

I've guided individuals through diverse challenges: depression, anxiety, relationship/marital issues, work stress, grief/loss, substance use, and family conflict. If depression feels overwhelming, relationships are straining you, or family pain weighs heavy—you don't have to face it alone. Therapy provides a compassionate space to unpack your experiences and find clarity together.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice and accept insurance. I provide therapeutic services to diverse populations, including couples, families, individuals, and groups. I specialize in couples therapy and work with couples to reduce communication barriers, resolve conflicts, and address intimacy issues. Complex relationship dynamics can cause considerable distress. Therapy provides a supportive resource for couples, individuals, and families, offering empathy, understanding, and attentive listening. I am committed to assisting you and your family in achieving your personal and relational objectives. I also offer lower rates on a sliding scale ($50 - $60) with Student MFTs under my supervision. Please contact me directly or via my website for more information. Insurance: Individuals, couples, and families: Services not clinically indicated are not always covered by insurance if the primary client/patient is not experiencing a medical necessity. Here's a few examples: 1. Most insurance plans don’t cover marriage counseling because it’s not considered a "medical necessity." That doesn’t mean therapy isn’t valuable, just that insurance companies tend to focus on diagnosed mental health conditions rather than relationship issues. 2. Life coaching or career coaching — focused on professional development rather than treating a mental health condition 3. General stress management without a diagnosed disorder — for example, “I just feel stressed” without a clinical diagnosis 4. Self-improvement or personal growth sessions aimed at building confidence, public speaking skills, or lifestyle changes 5. Vague or exploratory therapy without a clear diagnosis or treatment plan 6. Non-essential wellness or “feel-good” therapy not tied to a specific mental health need

Hi there, and thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Gabi, and I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). During my graduate training, I focused on mastering Aaron Beck’s CBT approach, which continues to guide my work in helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling and am credentialed to provide Substance Use Disorder (SUD) therapy. I completed advanced Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) training through the Dialectical Behavioral Institute in Michigan, and I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I also hold specialized certifications in ADHD (CCSP), anger management (CSAM), anxiety treatment (CCATP), and mood disorders. My clinical experience includes work as a residential therapist, in a faith-based private practice, facilitating counseling services in correctional facilities, and in hospital emergency psychiatric units supporting individuals in crisis. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists. I primarily work with adults 18 and older, offering a safe, supportive, and professional environment. My approach is collaborative and evidence-based, integrating CBT and DBT techniques to promote balance, resilience, and personal growth.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Many of my clients are high-achieving, thoughtful individuals who look capable on the outside but feel exhausted or self-critical on the inside. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness to help clients build practical skills while also developing deeper self-understanding. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident in your decisions, and less controlled by anxiety or old narratives.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Michigan rather than a city like Detroit?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Michigan. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Michigan from Grand Rapids to Warren! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Michigan.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
