My name is Anthony and I have worked in the behavioral health field for 28 years. I am very active in the behavioral health field even being acknowledged as a Notable Leader in Behavioral Health in 2023 through Crain's Detroit. While a large portion of my work is spent training and managing a team of behavioral health professionals it is incredibly important to me to continue creating space to partner and directly serve people. This is where you come in, providing counseling is generally the best part of my work. It grounds me with why I am a work in behavioral health, it allows me to practice the skills I have learned over the decades and it creates energy and life satisfaction. You have many options of who to choose as a therapist, know that if you choose me I will be excited to see you and to partner with you. Seeing clients is literally not my job, I genuinely want to be your counselor and I look forward to seeing you.

I am a PhD-level behavioral scientist and licensed psychotherapist with 30 years of experience in the study of behavior. My professional trajectory began in preclinical neuropharmacology, focusing on the mechanical intersection of the brain and behavior. Today, I bridge that foundational scientific rigor with a relational clinical practice that investigates the deep connection between the mind and behavior. While I am deeply familiar with the high-pressure cultures of the medical, legal, and academic communities, I work with anyone who values an intellectual and relational partnership. My practice is a candid, identity-expansive space designed for perceptive individuals and couples from all walks of life. We bypass clinical clichés to engage in a collaborative investigation of the structural patterns—whether personal, relational, or professional—that have stalled your progress. The Relational Psychodynamic Approach In our work, we utilize a relational psychodynamic lens to examine the unconscious blueprints and historical templates that dictate your current reactions. By observing the dynamics that emerge within the safety of the therapeutic relationship, we identify and rewrite the ingrained scripts that no longer serve your present reality. We treat our sessions as a live, high-resolution map where we can surgically isolate and address the friction points in real-time. This is an active, observant process—not a passive one. The Impact of Our Work The outcome of this relational partnership is the transformation of internal friction into a reclaimed sense of grounded autonomy. By integrating an understanding of biological hardware with the psychological "software" of the mind, we work to restore your capacity for intentional action, personal agency, and the clarity required to live a more satisfying life. Whether you are navigating a career shift or a relational transition, our work provides the shift needed to move from a reactive state to one of deliberate, atmospheric presence in your own life.

Hi, I’m Rasha. I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, and identity-related stress. Many of the clients I support appear strong and capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, overextended, or emotionally drained on the inside. I provide a supportive, culturally responsive space where you can show up fully as yourself — without having to filter, shrink, or explain your experiences. Whether you’re managing stress, healing from past experiences, or working through concerns related to racial or ethnic identity, I’m here to help you gain clarity, confidence, and emotional stability. Therapy with me is about real tools, real insight, and real growth.

As an individual who struggled with alcohol addiction, depression, and anxiety, my life experiences, as well as my education and faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of my life, have provided me with the opportunity to serve those who are struggling with life. Everyone has life struggles. I am prepared to help individuals and couples learn how to live life amidst struggles, such as depression, addiction, worry, financial stress, or marriage difficulties. 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.

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.

My clients are a diverse group of smart, caring, and kind people who feel weighed down by depression, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, or other challenges. Despite their many strengths, they sometimes struggle to build and maintain close relationships, face obstacles in their careers, or find it hard to achieve their goals despite the best of intentions. This can wear away at their self-worth and confidence, making everything feel even harder. Though therapy can sometimes feel heavy, it doesn't have to be all the time. My goal is to make it uplifting, engaging, and even fun—something to look forward to. Clients often describe me as calm, encouraging, nonjudgmental, and funny.

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.
