Spiritual Therapists in Michigan

Hello! I am a licensed Masters of Social Work Clinical Counselor based in Michigan. I received my Bachelors and Masters in Social Work from Grand Valley State University. My hope has always been to utilize my education to offer service and support to those who need a helping hand. I have worked in impatient, hospice, home care, residential, and hospital settings which has offered a wide range of knowledge in how poor mental health can negatively impact someone's life. Since 2020 I have focused my efforts on telehealth counseling which has helped me reach a population of individuals who may have not pursued therapy in the past. My goal is to be able to continue working with people who simply need a friendly and compassionate helping hand.

My goal is to be the last therapist you have to see, that when we are done working together you have the skills to be able to manage life on your own. I love facilitating change and would love to help you develop a better way of being. I have found that developing a better relationship with yourself is essential for many people to achieve their goals. Self-awareness is not self-criticism. Having had experience working with many different people from many different backgrounds and issues has helped me to see how I can fit the tools I carry into something useful for you.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan and an Executive Coach with a Ph.D. in counseling and an MBA with over 15 years of experience helping high-achieving, highly anxious individuals and those with ADHD find clarity, calm, and confidence. Whether you’re navigating major life transitions, work stress, or relationship struggles, I offer a blend of evidence-based strategies and compassionate support to help you feel more in control, connected, and equipped to move forward.

I am a counselor who embodies empathy, compassion, and motivation in guiding my clients toward healing and self-discovery. My training in TEAM CBT, developed by Dr. David Burns, emphasizes the transformative power of confronting negative thoughts to drive positive emotional change. This method, rooted in the principle that 'The Truth Shall Set You Free,' focuses on identifying and challenging cognitive distortions. Additionally, as a Christian Counselor, I seamlessly integrate Christian principles with traditional talk therapy and TEAM CBT, ensuring that these approaches complement rather than conflict. This holistic blend allows for a therapy experience where clients address their mental health challenges and find deeper meaning and alignment with their spiritual beliefs.

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. 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.

Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who is originally from Chicago, and who is now living in western Michigan. I was a school social worker working with adolescents with complex trauma for 6 years, and have now been working with adults for the past 3 years. I specialize in Internal Family Systems and Polyvagal Theory, and I also like to sprinkle in some CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness training depending on what the client needs.

I'm a therapist who's all about getting to the deep interconnectedness of things – peeling back the layers to really understand what's at play. From what I've seen in our sessions, you're the kind of person who's often navigating a lot beneath the surface: those unprocessed emotions that can feel like a "big bowl of whatever," or those times when you go "zero to a hundred" because something deep is getting triggered. I get that you're exhausted from going in circles, and that sometimes, what seems like a simple miscommunication is actually rooted in old fears or feelings of being unheard. My approach isn't just about quick fixes; it's about seeing how your past experiences – like those significant losses or family dynamics you've navigated – connect directly to how you're feeling and reacting today. We'll explore those unconscious patterns and "defense mechanisms" that might have protected you once but are now holding you back. I'm here to help you understand not just what's happening, but why it keeps happening, so you can truly build healthier coping mechanisms and find a sense of peace that resonates with your whole self – mind, body, and spirit.

Hello! I am a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (CBT) and a therapist specializing in Substance Use Disorders (SUD). I believe in the effectiveness of CBT, which focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By helping clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, CBT promotes healthier thinking and behavior. It is effective for issues such as anxiety, depression, and stress, providing essential coping strategies and problem-solving skills. My sessions are grounded in extensive training and an ethical framework that prioritizes your progress while fostering a trusting environment for healing and personal growth. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with a minor in General Business from Ferris University, and a Master’s in Clinical Social Work from Wayne State University, where I specialized in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Throughout my professional journey, I have had the privilege of working as a Residential Therapist in a Substance Use treatment facility, helping individuals facing various types of addiction. I have also worked in a Psychiatric Emergency Department as a Behavioral Health Provider, collaborating with the medical team to implement effective interventions. Additionally, I have provided both individual and group therapy through a community behavioral health nonprofit, working in diverse settings such as correctional facilities, clients’ homes, and Private Practice.

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 28 years of extensive educational and professional experiences. My clinical work has been providing guidance to individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds in the focus areas of grief and loss, relationship distress, adjusting to life/health changes, addressing personal struggles and other emotional stressors. I have been privileged to support many people in finding hope, healing, and strength as they navigate life’s toughest challenges and transitions. My services are virtual sessions only. As a counselor, I believe everyone is doing their best to work through hardship. However, there are times when we all need support and alternative perspectives to help us on our life’s journey. So essentially, you deserve a meaningful life. I offer a supportive space where each person can feel seen, heard, and empowered. Our work will center on self-discovery, free will, finding purpose, and developing a strong sense of self. Let's explore together what you need, by booking a first appointment with me.

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.

Hello potential client! You are hurting in some way if you are here reading this. Maybe you feel like you are getting more and more stressed out and just one more stressor would be too much for you to handle. Maybe you worry all the time about everything and can't stop.

Maybe you have been through a traumatic experience or are grieving. Maybe you are thinking the way you have been using substances is causing you problems.

My heart is for helping hurting people and I strive to treat all of my clients with the compassion and respect I believe they deserve.

I also use a variety of resources to help my clients. These include evidence-based types of therapy, worksheets and measurements. I also offer Christian counseling to those who are interested and am also happy to work with people of other spiritual beliefs. I offer free consultation calls so we can both decide if working together would be a good fit for both of us. I look forward to hearing from you if I sound like I would be your kind of therapist!

I also work with young adults, single-mothers, women with families, and men/women who have experienced childhood sexual abuse. I have experience working in the mental health field for over 10 years and have been providing clinical therapy services for 6 years. I am passionate about this field because I believe that everyone deserves healing in all areas of their life and that a diagnosis or challenge does not define a person.

Greetings and thank you for stopping to review my profile. Let me first say that it takes moxie to decide to connect with someone for support.

I love working with teens, young twenties, single thirties, and veterans. I have extensive experience with those that struggle with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and performance with athletes. I would be happy to work with clients that maybe be experiencing therapy for the first time and are not sure what it is like. I also prefer in-person if you are in West Michigan or online if you are in another area.

I work with people who carry wounds from a childhood that looked “normal” on the outside—or was anything but normal behind closed doors. Many of my clients grew up in environments where fear, shame, or confusion were constant, and where the adults around them failed to protect them, or became the ones they needed protection from. This includes those who experienced emotional neglect, physical or sexual abuse, religious trauma, or who were blamed or disbelieved when they tried to speak up. Often, families protected the abuser, minimized the harm, or made the survivor responsible for keeping the peace. These early betrayals don’t stay in the past. They shape the nervous system, relationships, and sense of self. You might feel stuck in shame or guilt that doesn’t make sense. You might feel unsafe in your own body, numb or hyperaware, over-responsible in relationships, or like you can’t relax—not even when things are “fine.” Maybe it feels like joy, safety, or real rest are always just out of reach. I specialize in working with childhood trauma, PTSD, and complex PTSD. In our work together, we won’t just talk about the past—we’ll track how it still lives in you. Using Brainspotting and parts work, we’ll create space for your body and your inner world to tell the truth, at a pace that honors what you’ve been through. You won’t be asked to “move on,” “forgive,” or explain what should have been obvious. We’ll start with this: what happened to you makes sense. Your symptoms are not the problem—your past is. And healing begins when someone finally helps you hold that truth.

Hi, my name is Stephanie. I am a licensed professional counselor with a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I enjoy working with a variety of clients and use a variety of treatment modalities. I believe helping people is my purpose and I am passionate about doing so. I love to learn all sorts of different things culture, art, music, history ect. Life is meant to live and that is what I enjoy helping people do. It is important to me to make sure my clients know their voice matters.

You Know What You Should Do—So Why Are You Still Stuck? You’re so frustrated with yourself. You want to start a better habit, make that healthy choice, or finally do something good for yourself… but somehow, another day ends and nothing has changed. You numb out with TV, scrolling, or distractions—not because you’re lazy, but because you’re overwhelmed, unmotivated, and stuck in patterns that feel impossible to break. You keep asking, “What’s wrong with me?” You talk yourself up, try to rally motivation, even map out a plan—but when the moment comes, you shut down. Then the guilt kicks in. Again. You’re not broken—you’re just stuck. And that’s exactly where therapy comes in. I’m Tammy Brooks, LMFT, and I specialize in online anxiety therapy and habit change counseling for adults across California, Michigan, Missouri, and Texas. With Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, we won’t dwell on what’s not working—we’ll identify what is working and build momentum from there. My approach is action-oriented, personalized, and designed to get results. While other therapists may offer lower rates or more reviews, I offer focused expertise to help you move from self-blame to self-trust and fast. Instead of rehashing the past week after week, I ask thoughtful, goal-oriented questions that guide you toward the hopeful, confident version of yourself—the one who says, “I’ve got this,” even when life throws curveballs. We’ll work together to uncover your strengths, explore your dreams, and focus on small steps that create real progress. You may even surprise yourself by reconnecting with coping skills you forgot you had—or discovering new ones you’ve always been capable of trying. If you’re ready for a personalized, results-driven approach—not just a therapy “session,” but a space to rediscover your strength—book your appointment today—and take that first step toward a brighter, more manageable tomorrow.
