Therapists in Ann Arbor, MI

Hello and Welcome! I am here to listen, support, advocate, and guide you to your individual wellness goals. I believe in a client-centered approach as I recognize that there is no single path to wellness. We will collaborate to discover the route that is best for you, your child, or your family. I believe each of us can live full and authentic lives with a bit of support and guidance.

If you would like help with issues regarding daily life, work, family, blended families, academics, life decisions, gender identity we can help. If you have feelings of fatigue, worry, and being overwhelmed we can assist you. We operate a group practice with several therapists in three locations. In your initial call to us we listen carefully to understand what your needs are and then match you with the best method of treatment and therapist to help you. We understand that calling for counseling is an important choice and offer excellent customer service to facilitate the process. We provide highly professional services in a peaceful setting.

Feeling confused? Overwhelmed? Can't get your thoughts to stop going and going? Not sure what to do? Let me help. Therapy is the only place where you get to focus completely on you. I make sure that the focus stays on YOU. I use a relaxed solution-focused approach to help you find relief. You no longer have to figure this out on your own, feel ashamed, or suffer alone. You need the skills, knowledge, and support to get through this. Give me a call. I am here to help.

As we ebb and flow through life, we connect, disconnect and reconnect over and over again. Our connections to our mind, our body, the people around us, our society and the world are in a fluid state of change. Some internal and external changes may be overwhelming and heavy like a crashing wave. Adjusting to everchanging connections can be difficult at times. As a result, we may start to disconnect and retreat as ways to cope and slowly float away.

Let’s be honest, life throws some serious curveballs. School stress. Job burnout. Family drama. Relationships. Grief. Lonliness. Anxiety. Problems that seem unsolvable. I understand what it’s like to feel stuck. You might not even know where to start. I became a therapist because I truly want to walk alongside your journey and 100% support you. In particular, I specialize in underserved communities (minorities) due to my own negative experiences receiving “help” from professionals who weren’t helpful. Shifting from frustration to empowerment, I want to be a positive light and advocate to help you build life-changing skills and hope.

Join me and jump in! My job is to guide and support you as you build a life worth living. I work with motivated individuals, couples, and families to go after their dreams, make life's difficult decisions, and move forward. I work with clients holistically and collaboratively. I believe that the core of therapy should be the relationship that we form during our work together. I will work hard to know and understand you. Using evidence-based techniques and therapies, I hope to help you make a difference in your life.

My heart has always been to help heal the wounds of broken families. Family is the most important structure in our society . Life’s challenges cause individuals to face issues that they may not be ready to deal with alone. I believe in providing tools and methods to every person who needs assistance navigating through PTSD, sexual trauma, depression, anxiety, childhood tramua, divorce, couples therapy etc.

The most challenging step in seeking help is making the first appointment, and I understand it might be anxiety provoking. I provide individual and couples' therapy utilizing cognitive-behavioral theories within a solution-focused framework. This allows for some relief to happen quickly for depression, anxiety, panic, grief, PTSD, phobias, ADHD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, care giver stress, career counseling, eating disorders, substance abuse, trichotillomania, infertility, LGBTQQIAAP issues, and neuropsychological (head injury, dementias, amnesia).

We specialize in neuropsychological assessments and evidence-based treatment for children, teens, and adults, while also providing treatment for anxiety and mood conditions. Do you or a loved one have difficulty at school, work, or with relationships? Are you concerned about your child's social development? Are you wondering if your child has ADHD or a learning disability? Are you concerned about changes with your parent's memory or behavior? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then we can help. - Erin Mark, PhD, Clinic Director

I currently have spots for 2 clients, which will go fast. We all have it within us to overcome the obstacles that stand in our way. I am here to help you through your personal struggles, empowering you to live a life full of meaning.

I am a clinical social worker and PhD educator. As a therapist I see clients in person at my private practice in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and by Doxy (like Zoom). I am also an Assistant Professor at Ferris State University Social Work Department, teaching graduate and undergraduate students. In addition, I conduct research on gender diversity, and I have done policy work to change the national recommendations for provision of mental health services to transgender and gender non-conforming people, serving as the lead author of the NASW National Policy on Work with Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Clients.

I have a deep belief in the ability for you to overcome difficulties. As a therapist, I believe, you are the expert in your experience and it is my role to provide a safe, understanding, and non-judgmental space for you to heal, grow, and move into a new way of being and feeling. But that doesn’t mean you have to figure everything out on your own–we will work together. I am here to support you in your healing journey. Collaboratively, we will set goals on both what you want to achieve and things that you want to rid from your life.

I aim to create a safe and supportive space where you can open up about your struggles, fears, and vulnerabilities without judgment. This is the first step toward understanding and addressing the issues that may be impacting your well-being. I use a trauma-informed approach and have experience treating a wide range of symptoms including those resulting from anxiety, OCD, religious trauma, depression, and issues related to gender identity and sexuality.

Are you concerned that you may be emotionally or verbally manipulated by your partner? Do you ever wonder ‘am I the problem’? Has infidelity been an issue in your relationship?

I am here to listen, assist, and share skills with you on how to be where you want to be and live the life you desire and deserve all coming from a life lived and a trauma-informed lens

Our lives can be chaotic and we all need support to make sense of the chaos. Challenges in life can be opportunities for growth, and that growth is tough work to do alone. Whether that chaos manifests itself in a battle with depression or anxiety, challenges in a relationship, or navigating life following a transition, loss, or diagnoses, hope and healing are possible.

Therapy is not one size fits all. Therapy should be catered to your individual needs, concerns, and goals. I will walk beside you on your journey, assisting you over the bumps and cracks along the road. We can start wherever you are in your healing and self discovery, as there is no pressure to talk about things that you do not want to. I often hear that others are concerned about starting over, retelling their stories. Well, that is not the case here. You are in control of your story and I am here to listen, clarify and help you write the next chapters you deserve. This is not easy life work and you do not have to do it alone.
