Therapists in Michigan

I am a dedicated LMSW-Clinical with 18 years of experience specializing in grief counseling and caregiver stress. After earning a degree from the University of Michigan School of Social Work, I have passionately committed myself to supporting individuals and families navigating the emotional challenges associated with loss and the demands of caregiving. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I provide a safe space for healing, helping clients process their feelings and develop effective coping strategies.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping high-functioning individuals navigate trauma, relationship challenges, overthinking, and the stressors of everyday life.

I aim to support clients in finding clarity, balance, and lasting healing.

Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has been practicing for over 20 years. I work with adults, couples, and families including children, and adolescents. My goal is to work with each person individually from a person-centered perspective. I want you to feel that you are in control of your progress by identifying your needs and focusing on your strengths . My specialties include depression, anxiety, relationship issues, behavioral challenges, post-partum depression, parenting, chronic illness, and grief. I am available to see clients in Kentucky in-person or telehealth, and Michigan or Minnesota via telehealth. The person centered approach means that the client is the center of everything from the initial assessment, to the development of the goals, to the treatment that is provided. It is important that you know you are accepted and with therapy you are able to address the concerns you have and learn to effectively work through them. I understand therapy can feel uncomfortable and the thought of sharing yourself with someone you don't know (yet) can be overwhelming. Give me a call and we can talk for an initial conversation to see if it will be a good fit.

My name is Solimar Mattei, I am a clinician with over 25 years of experience treating various mental health issues such as depression, trauma, anxiety, grief and recovery from abuse. I primarily work with adults and am bilingual in English and Spanish. I have evidence based training in Prolonged Exposure, EMDR CBT-D and IPT-D for depression. Additionally, I am a Certified Grief Specialist. I know how difficult and humbling it can be to reach out for help, therefore I take my responsibility as your therapist very seriously. I view therapy as a partnership where goals are developed and treatment has a focus that will lead you to live your best life. I will teach you skills needed to take back control of your life. You deserve to be at peace, joyful and productive. Together we can accomplish your therapy goals.

I work with high-functioning adults who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, emotional pain, or self-sabotage—even after years of traditional talk therapy. My approach integrates trauma-informed, somatic, and nervous system-based practices with subconscious reprogramming. Together, we’ll gently uncover and shift the deeper beliefs and survival patterns held in your body, creating healing that is not only insightful, but embodied and lasting.

Hello! I am a fully licensed social worker (LCSW) from Michigan. I received my bachelor's and Master's degree from Wayne State University. I help individuals develop coping skills during major life changes and challenges. I understand that life, particularly during major life changes, can bring many challenges. My goal is to provide a supportive space where individuals can develop positive coping strategies, enhance their emotional well-being, and navigate difficult times with confidence. I strive to foster an atmosphere of trust and compassion, helping individuals grow and overcome obstacles in a way that aligns with their unique needs and experiences

I love to work with people who are willing to think, to consider new ideas, to examine themselves honestly, and to try new behaviors. This is exciting! I love people who allow me the occasional moment of silence so that I can prepare a question that fits their unique personality and situation. I love working with people who are excited about working on things throughout the week and will give me honest feedback as to how effective that idea was for them. And i find it very enjoyable to work with someone who can articulate what they believe their issue is and what they think they need to do to overcome (either by increasing or decreasing a behavior) their problem (even if it takes a few sessions to get there). it's great to work with people who will do their best to give a new idea a shot. All that being said, everyone has their up days and down days. We wouldn't be human if we didn't. Being willing to let me walk alongside of them on those days, as well as the good days, humbles me because of their trust. Therapy can be work, and change doesn't fall into our laps. But it is possible, and in many cases, in order to experience abundant living, very necessary. Finally, I really enjoy working with people who, even as they identify a tendency, a personality trait, a reaction, or a thought process that may be related to childhood or adult trauma or abuse, will also look for ways to overcome its impact on them instead of being content to sit in its shade and let themselves be bested by it.
