Hello, I am glad you reached out. I provide individual sessions to teenagers and adults. Additionally, I work with couples and families, helping clients navigate emotional, relational, and life challenges in a supportive and collaborative environment. My therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples, and the Adlerian approach. I believe that everyone has the capacity to make positive changes in their life and making first step can be challenging but applaud. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. Together, we can explore what brings you to therapy, identify your goals, and collaborate on steps toward healing, growth, and healthier relationships. I look forward to beginning this journey with you.

I have more than three decades of personal and school counseling experience to share with my clients. I have worked in both private and Catholic schools. I have been a private therapist for eight years. I am also the proud mother of four adult sons. My life story includes some personal and professional obstacles, and I draw on these experiences to help my clients. I am especially empathetic to clients with physical challenges, as I cope with a partial hearing loss. This helps me serve clients with physical disabilities in addition to a wide variety of mental health challenges. I am privileged to serve anyone, but I have found my skills are particularly effective with children, teens, college students, and young adults who are navigating transitions, confidence, motivation or emotional challenges. I humbly believe my compassion and empathy are particularly helpful to this age group.

My name is Jennifer and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in 19 states with 20 plus years in the healing profession. I provide therapy to individuals, couples and groups.

My name is Stephanie Pitcher and I have been a counselor for over 15 years. I have two daughters who are currently teenagers. I have worked mostly as a school counselor in the high school and have been a counselor at the college level as well. My goal is to help people be their best selves. In my full time job as a school counselor, I help my students with a variety of issues related to academic, career and personal development. I have seen how therapy can help people learn how to cope with difficult situations. I am interested in doing therapy to help my clients overcome any challenges they are facing.

As a behaviorist, I believe that the environments in which we develop ultimately play the most significant role in our actions, decisions, and outcomes. Without the proper space for growth, healing, and self-development, one may face difficulties in achieving self-realization and self-actualization. Human-beings are social creatures – genetically designed, behaviorally conditioned, and evolutionarily driven. We possess certain intrinsic, natural needs and adaptations that have developed over millions of years. If these dualistically basic and complex needs remain unfulfilled, we will struggle to attain this self-actualization.

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.

Hi there, and thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Gabi, and I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). During my graduate training, I focused on mastering Aaron Beck’s CBT approach, which continues to guide my work in helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling and am credentialed to provide Substance Use Disorder (SUD) therapy. I completed advanced Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) training through the Dialectical Behavioral Institute in Michigan, and I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I also hold specialized certifications in ADHD (CCSP), anger management (CSAM), anxiety treatment (CCATP), and mood disorders. My clinical experience includes work as a residential therapist, in a faith-based private practice, facilitating counseling services in correctional facilities, and in hospital emergency psychiatric units supporting individuals in crisis. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists. I primarily work with adults 18 and older, offering a safe, supportive, and professional environment. My approach is collaborative and evidence-based, integrating CBT and DBT techniques to promote balance, resilience, and personal growth.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan. I received my Masters from the Oakland University and have been practicing for 10 years.

I used different modalities and intergrative interventions to help you to feel aligned with yourself. I'm here to listen and assist you on your journey towards healing and well being.

I am a trauma-based therapist, psychodynamic in orientation. I work with clients holistically, believing we are more than the sum of our parts and our trauma's. I tend to consider myself anti-diagnosis putting a major emphasis on making linkages to our pasts including prior relationships and family ties. I am also a dual diagnosis therapist believing with substance abuse concerns are composed of mental health issues and negative experiences. I also prefer but do not find necessary involvement with services from partners, husbands/wifes ect. I find the majority of clients we see also possess stress from unresolved issues with relationships, present and past.

Hello, I am a licensed clinical social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan. I received my Masters from Spring Arbor University and have been practicing for 5 years. I work with adults and children who have had trauma and are dealing with depression and anxiety. I also work with the school systems in my county to treat young children and teens who are struggling in school.

As a 23 year professional counselor in Michigan I have been happy to work with clients through clinical diagnosis, stress, anxiety, depression, employment issues, self esteem, addictions, and abuse survivor issues. I recognize the courage clients take to take that step to work through challenges to desired goals. From street ministries through foster care, school, church, and private practice I've enjoyed the variety of clients I've been sent. I welcome the opportunity.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you reach your goals. I offer therapeutic services by becoming a safe space to provide non judgmental guidance and support. My approach to counseling reflects your needs as you are the center of the therapeutic relationship. Life can be challenging, but you don't have to go through life's journey on your own. I have several years of experience working with adolescents, adults and couples in various settings. Allow me to assist you in navigating stressors, parenting, depression, anxiety, change, addiction, PTSD, trauma, esteem, behaviors, loss or trauma to enhance your well being, improve coping and problem solving. I would love to support you in meeting your needs.

Every story deserves a witness and every voice deserves to feel heard. As a clinician I take a humanistic approach when meeting with clients. For me, Humanistic means engaging with clients and taking a non-judgmental approach while they share about the barriers they're facing in life. My goal is to create a safe space as clients work towards self-acceptance and work through difficult emotions. I have worked in the mental health field for 5+ years with a focus on helping those with developmental disabilities, and severe mental illness. I am passionate about guiding clients with ADHD, depression, anxiety, and trauma to reach their fullest potential. Everyone has a different starting point and no matter what brings you to therapy, I'm here to meet you where you're at. Every client experience is unique and deserves to be treated as such. Working together using a humanistic approach we will work together to find what works best for you to reach your identified wants and goals. This is your story, I'm just here to be your non-judgment listener while you figure out the ending.

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.

I strive to make a client feel heard and validated as a person while helping them take steps in reaching their identified goals. I also try to emphasize flexibility by offering no cancellations fees and 6-7 days of availability on normal weeks is important as I realize it can be hard for some clients to commit to a specifically weekly commitment.

I am an LMSW, soccer coach, and former collegiate athlete. Formerly the Ehrenberg Family Fellow for Athletic Counseling in the University of Michigan Athletic Department. I provided mental health and athletic performance care for up to thirty Division 1 varsity student-athletes. I received my master’s degree from the University of Michigan School of Social Work in 2020. My passion is to help individuals become masters of themselves and to help them accomplish their goals. I work from a social justice lens to be culturally sensitive, utilizing strength-based, solution-focused interventions. I strive to work collaboratively toward clients’ objectives. I have worked with patients on athletic performance, injury support, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, sleep issues, relational stressors, grief/loss, trauma and suicidality. My approach is foundationally a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) framework, and I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I intend to earn my certification in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). The area I am most passionate about is the study of traumatic, toxic-stress, and mind/body symptoms. I have been interested in how trauma extends beyond some of the more historic notions of PTSD and ACEs. I myself was a collegiate athlete and, through many hardships and obstacles, on and away from the field, went through my own mental health journey. After coaching youth soccer for eight years since college, it became apparent to me that we had been neglecting the mental health of athletes and, oftentimes, of youth in general. In turn, my biggest motivation became de-stigmatizing mental health problems, particularly in the world of sport, and being a spokesperson for the value of therapy.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I’m passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen their relationships and navigate life’s challenges with confidence. I believe that healing and growth occur through connection, and I strive to create a safe and supportive space where every voice matters.

Whether you’re navigating communication struggles, parenting challenges, or major life transitions, my goal is to empower you to build trust, deepen emotional bonds, and foster lasting harmony in your relationships. Together, we can turn challenges into opportunities for growth and transformation.
