Marcas Bradley
Hello to all! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Michigan, but with licenses in California, Texas, Michigan, Idaho, Delaware, and Montana. I received my Masters from Wayne State University and have been practicing for 20+ years. I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, and trauma related to relationship or family issues. During our initial sessions, we will focus on goals that are measurable, achievable, positive, and specific to your situation. We will focus on identifying common thinking issues and ultimately working towards adaptive thinking strategies.

First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then do a dive into the areas that are most challenging for you and what you are hoping to achieve from therapy. I will pay close attention to your story and take notes that will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Strengths
My goal is to help you find out that your life, your situation, does not leave you with only one choice that leads to anger, heartache, dissatisfaction, misery, or frustration… but that you have choices. Life Freedom is a possible choice for you.
Ideal clients
An ideal client is one that desires and is willing to grow, someone that is fed up with the status quo and desires a change in their life. There is absolutely no need for a client to be perfect or for the client to come into a session and "know what to do". I am comfortable with a client that is unsure.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice, along with Person-Centered and Transactional Analysis approaches. We'll explore your reasons for therapy and what you want to achieve out of therapy, then decide on the most appropriate ways to help you reach your goals throughout the process.
Christian Counseling
As a Christian Counselor, there are times outside of the session where I pray for my ability to help my clients, along with praying for clients’ growth.
