Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over three years of experience supporting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault through a local nonprofit. In this role, I’ve also worked with individuals facing a wide range of life challenges, including trauma, relationship difficulties, stress, and emotional distress. This experience has given me a strong foundation in understanding how different life experiences can impact emotional well-being. I work with adults and couples who are looking to strengthen their relationships, improve communication, work through conflict, and develop healthier ways to cope with anxiety, depression, and anger. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and down-to-earth space where you feel comfortable showing up as you are and exploring what feels heavy or stuck in your life. Outside of work, I value time with my family. My husband and I spend many weekends traveling to our daughters’ softball tournaments, and life at home stays busy with our dogs, cat, and nine goats. I also enjoy being outdoors and spending time in my garden, even while I’m still learning. I believe healing happens through connection, patience, and small meaningful steps, and I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you along the way.

I am a therapist passionate about listening to the stories of others. I provide a safe space to tackle difficult issues and heal from the affects of trauma. In the past I found myself in therapy, and when my therapist helped me improve the quality of my life I decided I wanted to sit in his chair one day. I've devoted my career to that pursuit. You may be seeking therapy due to crippling anxiety, exhausting depression or to lift the weight trauma has placed on you. You may want to learn strategies to improve your focus and move you closer to your goals. Perhaps you want to get closer to loved ones and communicate in a healthier way with those around you. Whatever you bring I am here to guide you through it so you can then guide yourself through life. I'm confident that if we work together you can make changes, feel better and get more out of life.

Hello, I’m Demetria Agharese.

Helping others has always been at the core of who I am. My approach is rooted in empathy, compassion, cultural understanding, and a genuine commitment to your emotional well-being.

My name is Jeffrey, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan, and a Licensed Social Worker and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Ohio. I have also been an ordained Lutheran pastor since 1989. My professional career began as an Associate Pastor in a Lutheran church in northwest Ohio, where I focused on youth ministry, Christian Education, and pastoral counseling. I entered Social Work in 1995 when I began work as a Family Worker in a residential facility for hard to place juvenile offenders, and then worked in a few outpatient counseling agencies providing mental health and substance use disorder services. I have experience working with people of all ages on general mental health issues, such as managing depression and anxiety, and have specialized in the areas of PTSD recovery and domestic violence and sexual abuse victims and offenders. Throughout my counseling career, I have maintained activity in ministry. I was trained in Clinical Pastoral Counseling and also have had training as a Spiritual Director. My counseling approach is generally non-directive, using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in a Solution Focused, Client Centered frame work. I can incorporate spirituality as much or as little as the client desires, from not referencing spirituality at all to fully engaging the spiritual dimension of life. As a caring, empathetic listener, people find it easy to talk with me and be open about what needs attention in their lives. I look forward to working with 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.

Over the last 25 years I have gained experience as a social worker. First as a case manager with my Bachelors in Social Work degree from Western Michigan University in 2000. Next as a therapist after earning my Masters of Social Work degree from Grand Valley State University in May 2005. Since that time, I have had the opportunity to further my skills in Michigan, North Carolina and Maine. I have had the privilege of gaining extensive experience working with individuals and groups (teens and adults, active duty service men and women and their families, veterans and civilians). Some client concerns include those struggling with: depression, anxiety, trauma, life changes, stress management, grief, loss, gender identity, LGBTQ+ concerns, sexuality, aging, end of life, care taking of ill family/elderly, self-care concerns, and other life disruptions. I also have extensive experience working with First Responders, Health Care Professionals, Educators, and others in helping professions. In my down time, I enjoy spending time with my two Blue Heelers, my partner, my family and being outside. Reading, exploring nature, riding my bike and taking road trips help breathe life into my world. I love a good laugh, good music and the colorful world around us. Being present in your life is more than just attending events but being attentive and experiencing your life: the aromas, the textures, the sensations, the sounds and music of the world. Blink and you will miss it.

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.
