OptumHealth Complex Medical Conditions Therapists in Michigan

Hi, I’m Stephanie. I provide clinical mental health therapy in both Michigan and Wisconsin. I have 10 years of experience in helping clients to regulate moods, handle their grief, manage anger, cope with inattention/hyperactivity, reduce anxiety, improve self-esteem and confidence, and overcome career difficulties. At some point in everyone’s life, we all need someone to help us navigate our way, so signing up for therapy was taking your first courageous step. You may be experiencing a major setback, but it isn’t the end—it’s an opportunity for change. I look forward to getting to know you, your story, and how we can improve it together.

Hello, I’m Rhonda Davis, LMSW/LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Michigan. I earned my Master’s Degree in Social Work from Eastern Michigan University and have over a decade of clinical experience supporting individuals, couples, and families.

I am passionate about helping clients understand the impact of past experiences, develop healthier emotional patterns, and build stronger connections with themselves and others. My therapeutic style is grounded in best-practice, evidence-based, and collaborative approaches. I integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based interventions, and other person-centered modalities. My goal is to meet each client where they are, empower them with practical tools, and work together toward meaningful, lasting change. Throughout my career, I have witnessed many clients transform their lives—gaining confidence, improving emotional wellbeing, strengthening relationships, and cultivating deeper self-love. It is an honor to support people on their journey toward healing and becoming the best version of themselves.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges while creating healthier and more fulfilling lives. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of working with people from diverse backgrounds, each with their own unique story, strengths, and struggles. These experiences have shaped my understanding of how deeply personal circumstances are influenced by larger systems, and how healing requires both compassion and practical strategies. My therapeutic style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I believe that healing is not something I do for you but something we create together. I meet you exactly where you are, without judgment, and walk beside you as you move forward. My role is to provide guidance, support, and evidence-based tools that empower you to make meaningful changes while honoring your lived experiences. I specialize in helping clients manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges, but I also work with individuals seeking personal growth, clarity, or support during life transitions. Regardless of the circumstances, I view therapy as a space where people can feel seen, heard, and supported in ways that allow them to connect more deeply with themselves and others. At the core of my approach is the belief that every individual possesses resilience, strengths, and untapped potential. Therapy is a process of uncovering those strengths, identifying barriers, and creating a path toward balance and fulfillment. Whether you are facing a major life crisis or simply want to live with greater authenticity and joy, I am committed to helping you discover new possibilities for growth and healing. Together, we can build a foundation that supports lasting change and a more meaningful, empowered life.

Hello! I am a licensed Masters of Social Work Clinical Counselor based in Michigan. I received my Bachelors and Masters in Social Work from Grand Valley State University. My hope has always been to utilize my education to offer service and support to those who need a helping hand. I have worked in impatient, hospice, home care, residential, and hospital settings which has offered a wide range of knowledge in how struggles in maintaining good mental health can negatively impact someone's life. Since 2020 I have focused my efforts on telehealth counseling which has helped me reach a population of individuals who may have not pursued therapy in the past. My goal is to be able to continue working with people who simply need a friendly and compassionate helping hand.

Over the years, I've worked across diverse community settings, including Home-Based Services, hospitals, outpatient, PHP, residential, and virtual environments.

I am blessed and honored to be in a position to use the gifts God has entrusted me with to serve others. My specialty area is addictions. I struggled with alcohol addiction for about 23 years. Through God's redeeming grace and an excellent education, I am well equipped to help those struggling with addiction and the anxiety, depression, worry, and fear that may or may not be attached to the addiction. My life experience with addiction has equipped me with an understanding about addiction. Not just for the individual, but for the affected family/social network as well. My education at Grand Rapids Theological Seminary has also equipped me with God's ultimate resource for our afflictions - The Word of God.

I’m Royce L. Jones, MS, LPCC, MBA — a licensed professional counselor associate, Navy veteran, and mental performance consultant dedicated to helping individuals grow with intention. I specialize in working with student-athletes, high-performing professionals, and men navigating identity, leadership, and life transitions. My approach blends evidence-based practices like EMDR, mindfulness, and performance psychology with culturally responsive care to create a space that is honest, practical, and growth-focused. My goal is simple: to help you build awareness, strengthen resilience, and become the best version of yourself — on and off the field.

I’ve been a licensed Master Clinical Therapist since 2022, with a Master's in Social Work from Wayne State in 2018 and a Bachelor's in Social Work from Oakland University in 2017. I incorporate various therapeutic approaches like CBT, psychodynamic, exposure therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy, conducting group therapy sessions focusing on trauma, PTSD, and substance abuse. Experienced in crisis therapy and determining appropriate care levels, I combine DSM-5 knowledge and client engagement to empower individuals to reach their full potential.

I love to work with people who are willing to think, to consider new ideas, to examine themselves honestly, and to try new behaviors. This is exciting! I love people who allow me the occasional moment of silence so that I can prepare a question that fits their unique personality and situation. I love working with people who are excited about working on things throughout the week and will give me honest feedback as to how effective that idea was for them. And i find it very enjoyable to work with someone who can articulate what they believe their issue is and what they think they need to do to overcome (either by increasing or decreasing a behavior) their problem (even if it takes a few sessions to get there). it's great to work with people who will do their best to give a new idea a shot. All that being said, everyone has their up days and down days. We wouldn't be human if we didn't. Being willing to let me walk alongside of them on those days, as well as the good days, humbles me because of their trust. Therapy can be work, and change doesn't fall into our laps. But it is possible, and in many cases, in order to experience abundant living, very necessary. Finally, I really enjoy working with people who, even as they identify a tendency, a personality trait, a reaction, or a thought process that may be related to childhood or adult trauma or abuse, will also look for ways to overcome its impact on them instead of being content to sit in its shade and let themselves be bested by it.

I really enjoy helping others explore their own strengths, and I understand that sometimes it can be hard to put things into perspective.

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.
