Do you find yourself overwhelmed by feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger, or guilt? Do you wish you felt more empowered to set boundaries and say “no” in relationships? Are you stuck in unhelpful patterns or burdened by the past? As a therapist, I am passionate about creating a safe environment to explore these feelings, build an awareness of what's holding you back and work towards having a more fulfilling life. It is my passion to help children and adolescents develop healthy ways to manage and understand emotions, increase self-esteem, and create positive relationships in life.

Howard D. Gofstein is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan who has been practicing since 2001. Howard believes in approaching any new counseling relationship with flexibility, adaptability, creativity and curiosity, and welcoming people to share as much about themselves as they would like-and that every detail is helpful. And Howard knows that a new client expects to walk away from that first meeting with a sense that he has been paying attention and understanding what they are going through, and that he has some idea as to how they can eventually resolve their issue.

Therapy is simply a tool to utilize to find a path to a healthier, more stable future. We cannot navigate our future without understanding the impact of our past. We cannot adjust our behaviors without delving into our inner thoughts. My compassion and down-to-earth style of communication, accompanied by my emphasis on accountability and self-motivation, create for a comforting yet effective method of therapy. I provide adult individual therapy. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, dual diagnoses, trauma, domestic violence and sexual assault, substance abuse, and grief/loss.

My therapy approach is client centered. This means that I tend to be honest, accepting, supportive, and reflective. My goal is to help you understand your thoughts, perceptions, and emotions. I believe this understanding may help you reach your full potential. I know that you might be afraid of the unknown, but it is necessary to take action if you want change. What's the worst that can happen?...You try therapy and it doesn't work? "The greatest accomplishment is not in never failing, but in rising again after you fall" (Vince Lombardi). Keep moving forward! Try again!

Just because no one else can heal or do your inner work for you, doesn't mean you can, should, or need to do it alone. Sometimes the people around you won't understand your journey. They don't need to, it's not for them.
