Therapists in Michigan

My passion is helping clients heal from "Relationship Trauma" (intimate partners or parents/family). Have you, or are you currently, suffering from Narcissistic Abuse, Codependency, People-pleasing, difficulty setting Boundaries, or have a pattern of staying in unhealthy relationships? I have helped many clients (men and women) who struggle in these areas. I will help you understand how you arrived at this place, and we can work together to help you heal. I can guide you in learning to create and maintain healthy boundaries, increase self-esteem and confidence, reduce guilt, and enjoy healthier relationships. I have a unique perspective because I have dealt with (and have overcome) many of these issues in my own life. This work is very near and dear to my heart.

Hi, I'm Jenae! Ever feel like you're carrying the world on your shoulders, thinking you have to handle everything alone, only to feel suffocated by it all? It's a common struggle, believe me. But here's the scoop: counseling isn't about getting a to-do list or being labeled "weak" for reaching out. It's about finding a cozy spot to unpack what's on your mind and in your heart. It's a sanctuary where you can just be you, no judgments or expectations. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed, know this: seeking help is a brave move towards healing. You're not alone in this journey. I'm here to guide you towards understanding your thoughts, emotions, and actions better. With an authentic, easygoing, and even enjoyable approach, I create a safe, judgment-free zone where you can freely talk about your concerns. Together, we'll develop a roadmap towards a more fulfilling life that aligns with your values and desires. If you're feeling the weight of stress in any area of life – personal, relational, familial, professional – I assist you in understanding the impact emotionally, physically, & mentally. You'll discover how to leverage your brain's capabilities to navigate life more effectively. Let's turn current problems into growth opportunities!

Helping Women Heal From Trauma and Reclaim Their Lives. You've been living in survival mode for long enough. The weight of past trauma can show up in unexpected ways—as a constant hum of anxiety, a feeling of being stuck, or in patterns that sabotage your relationships and self-worth. It’s exhausting, and you deserve to feel whole again. Imagine a future where you can: Sleep soundly through the night without being haunted by the past, feel a deep sense of calm and control over your emotions and set healthy boundaries with confidence. My purpose is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can finally begin to heal.

Dealing with stress is something that everyone experiences, regardless of age or life stage. It can become overwhelming in various situations, such as: - Being a teenager battling self-esteem issues - Being a young adult trying to find your identity - Being a parent trying to find a balance between family and work life - Struggling in a relationship because of past trauma - Trying to move forward but grief is controlling you Neglecting your mental health can lead to not just a lackluster life, but a miserable one. I can address any concerns you have through therapy. My goal is to help you navigate your emotions instead of telling you what to do about them so that you can find peace and happiness for yourself. That could look like: - Waking up without dreading what your day entails. - Facing the world with confidence. - Having the courage to say no. - Setting healthy boundaries. - Celebrating life instead of fearing the inevitable.

I specialize in working with men, couples, and young adults tackling issues like anxiety, grief, anger, depression, relationship dynamics, and even financial stress. My approach is tailored to your needs—whether you’re ready to dive in and make big changes or prefer to move at a slower, more deliberate pace.

My role is to serve as your navigator, helping you uncover what’s holding you back and equipping you with skills to move forward. Therapy with me is forward-focused.

I see the quiet strength it takes to keep going when the past feels heavy and the future uncertain. You have lived through trauma—pain that has left its mark on your body, mind, and heart. Whether it’s family wounds, sexual or physical abuse, or the unique challenges of navigating your identity in a world that hasn’t always embraced you, your experience is deeply real and profoundly valid. It’s okay to feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected. It’s okay to have days when simply surviving feels like the bravest thing you can do. You are not broken—you are human. You have carried burdens that no one should have to carry alone, and yet here you are, still moving forward, still seeking healing and wholeness. This is a space where your story can be held with tenderness and respect. Where your pain is met with empathy, and your growth is celebrated, no matter how small it may seem. You deserve to be seen, heard, and understood exactly as you are. My work is about creating a space where your nervous system can slowly learn that it's safe to exist. To feel. To heal. Therapy with me isn’t about fixing you — it’s about helping you come home to yourself, piece by piece, with compassion, safety, and care. You are not defined by what happened to you. You are defined by your courage to face each day and your capacity to heal in your own time and way. I see you. I honor your journey. And I hold space for all the parts of you that are still finding their way back to joy and peace. I see you.

I believe in therapy as someone who has done my own clinical work since I was in my mid-twenties. I grew up in NJ and moved to Michigan to attend college and have been here since that time. I spent the first part of my career working in the foster care system with children and adolescents which I really enjoyed. That gave me a great foundation for working with the adult issues of attachment, child developmental stages that were not accomplished and struggles with current relationships. I do a lot of work with people who were raised by narcissistic parents, people who are dealing with cancer diagnosis and those with chronic or life threatening illnesses. I work with people who are addressing childhood trauma, sexual abuse or emotional abuse. I have worked with adoptees who are seeking understanding of themselves and their past. I do a lot of work with individuals transitioning from a divorce situation and all the adjustments that this involves especially in coparenting situations. I find people and their life experiences fascinating and always worth unpacking and investigating to gain a better understanding of the self as a whole being; there is always something new to learn.
