Compassionate, attentive, and knowledgeable. ​I am a dedicated Clinical Mental Health Counselor dedicated to supporting you on your journey of healing. You are welcome in this safe and nurturing space, where you can feel at ease. I earned my Bachelor’s in Psychology from Michigan State University, with honors, and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University. I have defended two theses during my time in graduate school, one centered on the nuances of bipolar disorder misdiagnosis and the other, creating compassionate support systems for caregivers. My focus remains on empowering the individual.

As a Licensed Practical Counselor I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective mental health support to individuals seeking guidance and healing. With a deep commitment to promoting wellness and empowerment, I have a wealth of experience and expertise in counseling. While I have worked with clients from all over the country, I hope to primarily work with clients from the state of Michigan since that is where I am licensed. I attained the University of Michigan for my Undergraduate education, and then attended Graduate School for Counseling at San Jose State.

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.

I’m a Licensed Master of Social Work (MSW) with 7 years of experience in therapy. My journey began with a strong academic foundation, including coursework focused on becoming a school social worker, which has been incredibly valuable in my practice. Although I’m not currently working in a school setting, the knowledge I gained helps me guide and empower parents to advocate for their children within the school system. I have a deep passion for working with children and teens who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, autism, and ADHD. I understand that each child and teen is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs, providing a safe space for them to express themselves and develop the tools to manage their emotions and challenges.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life transitions and challenges.

Drawing on my professional training and life experience, I strive to build genuine connections that empower individuals to heal, grow, and move toward greater wellness.

I'm Cathleen a licensed social worker in the state of Michigan. I have been a MSW for over 30 years and practicing therapy for over 10 years. As a therapist I aim to create a safe, judgment free space for self-exploration, discovery, and healing. This is best realized when a client and therapist can work collaboratively. Each of us is a work in progress learning to navigate an ever-changing and complex world. Every stage in our life offers obstacles and hurdles; it is how we respond to them that determines the outcome. In the brilliant words of Ram Dass “We’re all just walking each other home.” It would be my honor and privilege to walk with you on your journey. On a personal note; I love thrifting, cooking vegan food and spending time with my senior rescue dog Gypsy.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over a decade of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. I specialize in working with men’s mental health, career challenges, and building practical skills for long term emotional resilience. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and narrative therapy. I focus on helping you understand your patterns, develop effective coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change not just symptom relief. Clients often describe my style as direct, down to earth, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not a clinical script. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just trying to get your life back on track, we’ll work together to build clarity, confidence, and momentum.

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.

I offer telehealth counseling for adults and seniors, including Medicare clients, who are navigating life’s challenges. Many of the people I work with are dealing with grief, caregiver stress, trauma, depression, or anxiety. I understand how heavy these struggles can feel, and my goal is to provide a compassionate, steady place for you to breathe, reflect, and heal. Using evidence-based approaches such as CBT, mindfulness, and supportive therapy, I tailor each session to your needs. Whether you are coping with illness, loss, or overwhelming stress, I will walk with you in building resilience and finding balance. Together, we can create space for healing, growth, and renewed hope, no matter where you are on your journey.

I could list my degrees (MSW from USC), my credentials (LCSW, CFTP) and my experience (10 years of individual and couples therapy). Most of all I am a mom, a sister, a grandmom and a retired veteran. I understand life from many intersections. I know the stigma of seeing a mental health professional, but I also know that most of people that are in therapy seek treatment because they have to deal with people that refuse to seek treatment for themselves. I create a safe space to process what you have experienced, what you want to change, and what are your barriers to success.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or unsure how to manage stress, emotions, or life changes, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I help children (6+), teens, adults,and caregivers build emotional regulation skills, strengthen resilience, and create practical strategies for daily life. My approach is trauma-informed and paced with care. I support clients in understanding how past experiences may influence current patterns, while focusing on safety, skill-building, and grounding—not intensive trauma processing. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, somatic awareness, and experiential or strengths-based approaches. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of how to balance their needs with responsibilities at home, work, or school. Together, we explore tools, insights, and strategies that help you feel more capable, grounded, and confident in your day-to-day life.

It's important to me to create a safe, non-judgmental space for you to feel deeply heard and supported, while also being gently encouraged to grow. While my approach to your care is personalized and collaborative, I draw from evidence-based methods like Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), DBT, CBT, ACT, and mindfulness to help you build tools you can actually use beyond our sessions. I bring not only knowledge, but also humility and lived experience to this work. My goal is always to co-create a space where you will feel safe, respected, and empowered. Together, we’ll focus on managing distress, learning about emotions, building resilience, and reconnecting with what matters most to you whether that’s enjoying your relationships, finding balance, or reclaiming joy.

My name is Danni, and I’m a Licensed Therapist with degrees in Clinical Social Work and Marriage and Family Counseling. I’ve worked in mental health across a range of settings, but it was my nearly eight years of experience working with aggressive, nonverbal children and clients on the autism spectrum that shaped my passion for understanding behavior as unspoken, unconscious communication. This experience taught me to read beneath the surface and recognize that our behaviors often reflect deeper emotional needs and unresolved wounds. While my roots are in behavioral work, my focus is on helping adults and adolescents explore their inner worlds—especially through inner child work. I believe the inner child is present in all of us, and that healing comes from understanding and nurturing these parts of ourselves. My approach is direct, thorough, and compassionate. I am committed to helping clients get to the root of their distress and move toward a more authentic and fulfilling life. My Approach and Beliefs I offer progressive therapy grounded in psychodynamic trauma processing and inner child work. Together, we’ll go beyond surface symptoms to trace pain to its origins, uncover where coping mechanisms and triggers first formed, and support you in healing and integrating your whole self. This process can be intense and challenging, but I am here to walk with you every step of the way. My goal is to help you move from surviving to truly living.

I know how isolating it can feel when emotions are overwhelming, relationships are challenging, or family conflict leaves you feeling stuck. I’m passionate about creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can truly be yourself—whether you’re working on building confidence and self-esteem, learning to be more assertive, navigating attachment or relationship issues, or feeling misunderstood. I welcome and support people from all backgrounds, including those who are neurodivergent or part of the LGBTQ+ community, and anyone who’s struggled to find a therapist who truly relates to them. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, and together we’ll work on building stronger connections, finding relief from painful cycles, and developing practical tools so you can create a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.
