Who I am My name is Danni, and I'm a Licensed Therapist. My approach is direct, heavy, and unapologetically thorough. I believe in getting to the root cause of your distress and dismantling it, brick by heavy brick. My goal is to guide you on a transformative journey toward a more fulfilling and authentic life. My Approach and Beliefs This is a form of progressive therapy, and it is driven by one core belief: that the most profound and lasting change comes from psychodynamic trauma processing and inner child work. We will not be skimming the surface. We will begin there, yes—at the surface of your current pain—but we will be following it down into the core of your past. We will find where your coping mechanisms and triggers were first formed, because our deepest parts are often stuck in the moment of their original trauma. The goal of this process is to go back to that stuck place, find safety and stability, and then walk you through the developmental stages you missed so that the "inner child" can finally grow up and become one with your current self. This is not easy. It’s intense, it can be scary, and it will require you to face things you’ve likely spent a lifetime running from. We'll be going into the depths, so you can stop just surviving and start truly living.

I am focused on helping you live your best life, mentally, physically, spiritually, and culturally, to have a deeper connection with those around you, and finally begin the process of self-acceptance & healing. Why continue down the same path, only to yield the same results? Allow yourself the opportunity to heal, love, and grow. Having the right therapist in trauma recovery makes all the difference, when it comes to either being re-traumatized and regressing, or cognitively processing events, and eliminating phobias. This was my reason for becoming a counselor years ago, and undoubtedly my strongest area. Experience merits a level of expertise that cannot compare to books.

I am Ruth Westfall, a licensed Social Worker, with 30 years of experience as a therapist. I am passionate about getting to know my clients and seeing them heal and overcome life's challenges. I have the greatest respect for those who seek support in order to make positive change in their lives! After finding myself a single parent, I needed to find work in a field where I could support my son and myself. I was always interested in a helping profession as well as one where I could be involved in social justice. I graduated with a Master's in Social Work in 1995 and immediately found work at a mental health clinic. I worked there for 24 years in various positions, not only as a therapist but as an advocate for victims of crime. The pandemic caused such a need for therapists that I was able to branch out on my own and go into private practice, which I love! Since 2020, I have worked with hundreds of clients on telehealth platforms and helped them cope with the many challenges of these last few years.

Whether there has been a significant loss, a life transition, relational conflict, or daily stressors, we all need support during difficult times. Sometimes, however, a trained professional can help navigate these challenges and assist in facilitating positive change. We aren’t always able to recognize the underlying cause of our discomfort or find ways to overcome life’s challenges. In a therapeutic setting, we will work together to discover healthier ways for you to deal with life’s struggles, make desired changes, improve relationships, and find inner healing.

Michael holds a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Applied Counseling from Lynn University, specializing in mental health and addiction. He’s driven by the transformative “breakthrough moments” when clients gain new clarity—whether through a fresh insight, a life-changing decision, or witnessing a loved one’s growth. "Every person's journey unfolds at their own pace," Michael reflects. "Being present for those transformative moments—when everything clicks into place—reminds me why I chose this path. If you've ever experienced that sudden clarity, you know exactly what I mean. It's what makes this work endlessly rewarding."

Gabriela Vega is a dedicated mental health therapist who specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and is credentialed to treat Substance Use Disorders (SUD). Her earlier and current clients have presented with Borderline Personality, Bipolar Disorder, Depression, General Anxiety, ADHD, and PTSD. She has over a decade of experience in the human services field, with significant experience addressing the concerns of seniors, their families, and the diverse populations of Saint Clair and Macomb Counties. Gabriela emigrated to the United States from Peru at the age of 14, shortly after her father lost his battle with leukemia. She grew up in a challenging and impoverished community in Florida, facing significant difficulties and barriers. She started school in Florida as a native Spanish-speaking teenager, having to learn English as a new middle school student. At the age of 16, Gabriela became a single mother, which profoundly changed her life. Despite the many challenges she faced, including a lack of family support, experiences of violence, and minor run-ins with the law, Gabriela persevered. She obtained her GED and ultimately graduated Summa Cum Laude from Ferris University, later earning a Master's degree from Wayne State University. She had entered Wayne State University to continue her education after again becoming a single parent following her divorce, and re-entering the workforce. Her journey is an expression of personal resilience and determination. Gabriela credits much of her strength and her desire to become a therapist to her older sister, Juli’s experiences coming out as non-binary at the age of seven. This experience taught Gabriela valuable lessons about love and acceptance, as well as the harsh realities of societal prejudice early on. This bond continued until Juli died in 2021. Gabriela later survived the untimely death of her twenty-year-old daughter, persevering for herself and her teenage son.
