Therapists in West Bloomfield, MI

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor; trained in ERP, Certified Forensic Consultant, Credentialed Telehealth, with specialization in Counseling Psychology. I offer GOAL ORIENTED THERAPIES for adults and adolescents. I am passionate about the mind/body connection and use CBT, ACT, DBT along with mindfulness to increases awareness, create necessary habit changes, improve relationships both personal and professional and maintain a healthy balance in your life. If you are tired of being stuck, repeating certain patterns or themes, I will work along side you to resolve past issues and start living the life you dream about.

I have experience working with a diverse array of clients from varying backgrounds with unique concerns. I enjoy working with couples, children, and adults, primarily those who have experienced trauma, the grief associated with a loss, and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety. My style and approach are personalized based on your needs, but are typically solution focused and rooted in empathy, partnership, and humor.

Empathy is the foundation of our work together. As a psychotherapist, I listen attentively to understand your emotions and your life challenges. Our therapeutic work will help you feel more fully alive by processing and understanding your emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors. Your past often creates pain and suffering leaving scars that affect your present emotions and relationships. My goal is to help you recognize these challenges that make you feel overwhelmed and stuck. I will help you rework your thoughts and feelings to free you from the burden of the past and inspire you for the future.

Are you seeing that things could be much better and are not quite sure which path to take? Finding a helping hand is the first step towards positive change that can provide that glimmer of light, that sense of relief in knowing that wholeness and strength is on the horizon. The challenges that life brings to us can also provide a doorway to change. I can help you to transition through that change and find that your personal goals can be met. You CAN feel better.

I am a licensed psychologist and the clinical director of Sollars and Associates Integrative Counseling and Psychological Services. I have been providing counseling and psychotherapy for over 30 years in the Metro Detroit area and our group practice spans across the state of Michigan. With support, encouragement and expert insight many people begin to feel better after their first session.

I enjoy working with individuals of different ages, ethnicity, in need of individual, couples or family sessions. I believe that life is a journey, which at times, can be very challenging. Sometimes we find ourselves at a crossroads, trying to decide our direction. Staying on familiar paths can be easier yet repetitive and stagnant. Growth means change and following new paths, though unfamiliar and with unseen risks. Therapy can help one believe in themselves and try new paths, with the therapist lighting the way.

I imagine you are looking at this site because you know something needs to change. Feeling stuck and unable to move forward is a common problem, you are not alone.

Your search to understand your own story and subsequently change the trajectory of your life is brave. You are taking a courageous next step in changing your life and securing your future. You are not your past and you are not your symptoms.

The truth is we are living in intense times that contribute towards discord and dysfunction. As such, you may find yourself on a journey not of your own choosing; and, often during these times, you could stumble upon a place called uncertainty. Basically, this is a place of being stuck at a crossroad, not knowing which direction to take that will produce the results you desire. Or, perhaps you have made some decisions that have resulted in negative consequences and the solutions seem improbable. In essence, no matter the contributing factors to where you are today, CHANGE is still possible, and HEALING is still obtainable!
