Therapists in Michigan

Hi! I'm Ashley. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I graduated with my Masters Degree in Social Work from Grand Valley State University in 2008. Post graduation, I worked 5 years in a nursing home, specifically on the locked Alzheimers Unit. I have spent time working in medical hospitals in the Emergency Department and with patients after they've been admitted. Most recently, I worked 12 years at an inpatient psychiatric hospital, the last couple of years at the Lead Clinical Social Worker on a locked inpatient unit. June 2023 I started my outpatient therapy practices and now work fully remote via telehealth providing individual and couples therapy to clients in Michigan.

I am a compassionate and experienced therapist specializing in helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. With a focus on building strong relationships and fostering personal growth, I empower clients to address issues such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am a culturally competent therapist. My approach is collaborative and tailored, providing a safe space for meaningful change and lasting solutions.

With the right match, psychotherapy is a gift to yourself. I'm trained as a licensed clinical social worker and see people remotely in New York and Michigan. My approach is warm, genuine, and affirming. It's my job to listen and understand how your background, circumstances, relationships, and overlapping social identities have shaped your experience and help you navigate whatever you're facing so you can heal and move forward. I've been a social worker for 20+ years and have worked with, and on behalf of kids and adults of all ages in the areas of mental health, child welfare, juvenile justice, education, LGBTQIA+/TGNBI rights, and services for people without stable housing. After some soul searching and shifting of my "why," I've returned to individual work. I enjoy meeting and working with people from all walks of life. I have a master’s degree with a law minor from Columbia University and a bachelor's in psychology from the University of Michigan.

It can feel overwhelming trying to get through life's struggles on our own. I am here to help empower you to develop positive coping strategies. I have experience working with adults, women, and clients who have communication issues in their relationships. I am passionate about helping my clients navigate stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & coping with grief and loss.

The therapeutic relationship is personal for every individual. The idea of sharing your story to someone can feel scary and overwhelming but can also feel relieving and hopeful. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, phase of life changes, or just need a safe space to process life stressors, therapy can be a positive step in creating change in your life. The challenging part can be finding a therapist that you can trust and is a good fit. Feeling comfortable with your therapist is essential to making progress. I approach therapy as a partnership and provide counseling from a trauma informed and strengths based perspective. I have been a practicing clinician since 2012 helping clients from various backgrounds identify goals that are important to them and have been fortunate to witness many of them achieve their goals.

Hi, I’m Billy, a clinical therapist who believes healing happens in safe, collaborative spaces where your story is honored without judgment. I specialize in trauma-informed care and work with individuals navigating anxiety, identity, relationships, life transitions, and a variety of other issues. My approach is warm, affirming, and grounded in the belief that growth is possible when we feel truly seen, heard, and supported.

Do you ever want to feel validated, heard, understood, and not judged by others? Are you still recovering from pain due to grief or trauma? Some days it feels like you are alone and misunderstood, but it does not have to be that way. Based on my experience as a clinical therapist, I specialize in working with Teens and adults focusing on but not limited to anger management, anxiety, depression, grief and loss with a vision to empower clients to feel confident, assurance within themselves, closure and normalize feelings with reasonable solutions and coping skills to manage everyday life.

"As a highly experienced Licensed Professional Counselor with 27 years in the mental health field, I aim to empower individuals to find inner strength and confidence and to believe in themselves again. I work with clients through a solution-focused and CBT approach to identify and develop the skills needed to resolve their unique challenges and situations. I help clients to embrace their truth and live in the present, encouraging them to take responsibility for their actions while also reminding them that it is ok not to be perfect. I have a breadth of experience working with youth and adults struggling with various mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grief. In addition, I have specialized expertise in working with caregivers, primarily women, to help them overcome guilt, isolation, and overwhelming stress. My ultimate goal is to provide clients with the tools and resources to change their circumstances and improve their mental health well-being. " I believe everyone has the ability to overcome life's challenges and deserve to live a happy and healthy life."

I’m a relational, grounded therapist who believes real change happens when insight meets accountability. I create a space where you can be fully honest—without fear of judgment—while also being gently challenged to grow. I don’t believe therapy is just about talking through problems; it’s about identifying patterns, understanding where they come from, and making intentional shifts that align with who you truly want to be. My approach is collaborative and structured. I help individuals and couples slow down their reactions, recognize emotional triggers, and take ownership of the behaviors that may be keeping them stuck. I value clarity, responsibility, and emotional awareness. At the same time, I deeply respect how culture, family systems, past experiences, and unhealed wounds shape the way we show up in relationships. With couples, I focus on communication, repair, and rebuilding safety. With individuals, I help strengthen emotional regulation, self-advocacy, and identity development. I integrate evidence-based practices with real-life application, so the work we do in session translates into meaningful change outside of it. At the core of my work is the belief that people are not broken, they’re often misaligned. My role is to help you realign with your values, voice, boundaries, and vision for your life. Therapy with me is intentional, practical, and growth-focused. If you’re ready to move from reaction to reflection and from frustration to forward movement, we’ll do that work together.

I am deeply committed to providing a safe, supportive space where you can explore your emotions, unlock your potential, and create meaningful change in your life. With empathy, active listening, and a solution-focused approach, I will guide you toward greater self-awareness and personal growth, empowering you to overcome challenges and thrive while also identifying your greatest strengths. We do this in a way that meets your goals in a self-paced format.

I help college students, job seekers and working professionals who are feeling burned out, anxious, or overwhelmed reconnect with their strengths and bring their best selves to work or school. Many of my clients juggle high expectations, relationship challenges at work or college, and ongoing stress—and feel stuck, frustrated, or held back by negative self-talk. Together, we work on recognizing these patterns, challenging self-imposed limitations, and building healthier, more confident ways of thinking. Career counseling focused on mental health in the workplace is my specialization. Follow me on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/carrie-may
