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. My clinical focus includes depression, anxiety disorders, trauma recovery, relationship issues, and LGBTQ+ affirming care. 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! Wishing you wellness. I’m Christina, A Licensed Professional Counselor completing a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and neuroscience. I have practiced in Maryland, New Jersey, Florida and Michigan for over 20 years. I practice solution-focused therapy that leads to results! I treat young women ages 18-40, utilizing a variety of techniques. I believe in listening, helping and healing but I am most concerned about growth. I believe that clients who remain stagnant in therapy are not getting their needs met. Therapy is a collaboration and a partnership. It is about working together to promote healing and also teaching tools and techniques that will last a lifetime. Long after the therapy session is over, clients continue to live their lives. If ill equipped to handle difficult times, a client can find themselves in the same situation that sent them to therapy initially. This could potentially lead to dependency on therapy or one may find themselves disliking therapy.

Life threw me a curveball when I underwent open-heart surgery—but I hit it out of the park with resilience, self-care, and a passion for helping others do the same. With 20 years of experience as a social worker, including supporting children and families in a school setting, I understand the ups and downs of life and the power of healthy coping strategies. In my past role, I worked closely with families, helping them manage, cope, and recover from trauma. Through this experience, I developed a deep understanding of the challenges families face and guided them with empathy and practical support. Whether you're navigating the emotional rollercoaster of life and work or recovering from a difficult chapter, I’m here to help you regain your balance, one step at a time. Let’s work together to make your comeback even stronger.

Hello and welcome. I’m really glad you’re here. Reaching out for support can take courage, and my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard from the very beginning. I believe therapy should feel like a warm, supportive conversation where you can slow down, make sense of what you are experiencing, and begin moving toward the life you want with clarity and confidence. For more than two decades I have had the privilege of working with individuals and couples who are navigating anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. My approach blends compassion, practical tools, and evidence based treatment so clients not only feel supported but also leave sessions with strategies that help them move forward in meaningful ways. I am Wendy Durant, a Licensed Professional Counselor with advanced training in Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, trauma informed care, couples counseling, and sex therapy. I’m licensed to provide telehealth services in multiple states including Iowa, Louisiana, Michigan, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Texas. My goal is to meet you where you are, walk alongside you in the process, and help you build the confidence and resilience to move toward the life that matters most to you.

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.
