Therapy is not a one-sided conversation; in fact it is an interaction with another person for real discovery and wellness. I can promise you I am as real as it gets. I want to help you achieve the changes you are looking for as well as see you discover the new you. I do not believe growth and discovery have to always be an uncomfortable experience. Reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment and maybe a few deep breaths to call and see how I can help.

Greetings! My name is Lori Hain and I am so excited to be a part of the Life Support LLC Grand Rapids team! I bring with me my extensive experience and individualized approach to caring for my clients. I have over 27 years of experience in a variety of areas. I specialize in addiction/substance abuse, personality disorders, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, OCD, panic disorders, dissociative disorders, couples/family counseling and a variety of other areas. I am comfortable working with many different types of individuals and couples and welcome diverse populations with open arms.

Life at times can seem like a battle field, and our minds our most hostile enemy. Many of us are in conflict with both internal and external factors that exist in our lives. Sometimes we don't feel equipped to withstand these forces or conditions that exist in our daily life. Depression, trauma, abuse, addictions, failed relationships, and shaming thought patterns that can hold us back in family relationships, academic achievement, social interactions, and career development. I believe the battles we win within our minds, can extend throughout all areas of our life. It's not only becoming mindful, but taking steps towards change.

Carolyn has been working with children and families for over 25 years.

Carolyn also has expertise with Highly Sensitive People (HSP), including children (HSC). This is a normal biological trait in personality and physiology inherited by about 20% of the population. HSP's have sensitive nervous systems and feel things deeply, notice more in their environment and are easily overstimulated by sensory input in their environment.

Accepting New Clients! Welcome, I am a Mental Health Professional with about 5 years of experience in the field. I have a true passion working with children, teens, and young adults struggling with anxiety, trauma, and low self-esteem. Creating goals for my clients to overcome their struggles and having the privilege to join them throughout their journey of healing, growing, and recovering is what I love most about the work I do!

You want to feel better, increase self confidence and gain more coping skills. Life gets overwhelming, and you are tired of feeling stuck or living in survival mode. You desire support to help process emotions, parenting, family relationships or life changes. Talking with someone who will validate your experiences is important to you. Having a safe space to explore your emotions and strengthen coping skills matters, you want to prioritize yourself in this space. It’s time to feel confident again and challenge those thoughts keeping you stuck to help move you forward into the life that you want. The life that you deserve!

The decision to start therapy can be overwhelming & anxiety provoking. You may be wondering how therapy can help or who the right therapist is. You're not alone! My hope is to help you feel comfortable & confident in your decision to be here. I have over eight years of clinical experience working with depression, anxiety, life transitions, mood disorders, family &/or relational conflict, grief, complex medical diagnoses, & trauma. I strive to create an environment in which we identify where change is needed while highlighting the strengths you already possess. I value building trust, fostering connection, & embracing vulnerability.

As a therapist, I believe that building a relationship is the most important part of the therapeutic process. From that relationship, it becomes possible to examine difficult areas of your life in order to experience growth and security within yourself. The therapeutic setting provides a unique opportunity to pause the busyness of everyday life and sort through present or past concerns that may be affecting you and your family.

Sharing your story matters and I consider it an honor anytime a client chooses to share theirs with me. Inviting someone else into your journey can feel scary, exciting, comforting and vulnerable, but there is something powerful that happens when you do. Whether you have shared your story many times before or this is your first time, I am ready to walk that journey with you.

Therapy can be a great opportunity to add support for yourself and provide tools that you may not have had access to before. Making the decision to start therapy, either for yourself or for your child, can feel overwhelming. Therapy and therapists are not a one size fits all, so it's important to find the fit that is right for you and/or your family. I believe healing and change can occur, but taking a risk is required to do so. If you or your child are struggling with processing trauma history, grief/loss, parenting issues, stress management, adjustment issues, mood disorders, depression, and anxiety, you don't have to do it alone.

I work with individuals, couples and families as they navigate a variety of life complexities. My practice is a safe and practical place to process the past and explore your future. Perhaps, you’re coping with a particular problem or feeling stuck in long-term patterns of dysfunction and individual therapy sounds like a great fit. Or maybe, you're hoping to renew hope in the relationships you treasure most via couples or family therapy where you will learn to improve communication, cultivate boundaries, and mend any past or present wounds to ensure the healing and sustainability of the relationships that matter most.

I feel every person deserves to have their own therapist. The opportunity to share without fear of judgement or tangling the personal ties in your life. If you want help navigating life's challenges, relationship issues, or knowing what is next in life; therapy is a great place to start. Therapy can be life changing and help you become the best version of yourself. My intention is to meet you where you are and help you reach your goals. It will be a journey of vulnerability and growth, tears and laughter all in a nurturing and empowering environment.

Everyone experiences life struggles. I believe clients come to therapy already equipped with the tools and skills to make change and therapy is a tool to help accomplish that goal. I specialize in helping individuals with trauma, depression, anxiety and relationship problems. I've worked with adults, children, adolescents and families for 20 years, and take great joy in seeing change happen in the lives of others. I believe in a client-centered approach, which means you are the expert of your own life, and I am a facilitator in helping you accomplish your own goals. I also have experience working with other healthcare professionals.

Feeling stuck, incomplete, or helpless is a debilitating place to be. I hope to provide a space for individuals to reflect on and experience their whole selves so they can heal. I have years of experience working with individuals from ages 5 to mid-adulthood. I have helped those who struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, traumatic grief, complex trauma and PTSD, behavioral issues, parenting, and/or family issues. For children, I offer a playful and engaging approach that is conducive to their level of development.

I specialize in utilizing a holistic & relational ​approach to address issues that arise from unresolved ​trauma, stress and anxiety, life transitions, and mood ​disorders. I believe by addressing dysfunctional patterns ​of the mind and body that stem from the past, we can live ​fuller and more balanced lives in the present and future. I am passionate about working with young adults, adults (to age 65), & family ​units. Common areas of need include life transition support, developmental ​trauma & accompanying symptoms, & relationship/attachment struggles.

Are you struggling with anxiety or feeling depressed? Are family or life difficulties leaving you stressed? Are you feeling burned out? Have you experienced trauma? I believe we all need a supportive space to be open without judgement as we talk through our thoughts and feelings and process stress. I'd love to help support you with these or other concerns such as relationship issues, job stresses and faith related difficulties. Working together we will work toward peace and personal growth for a more vibrant life through mental wellness, stress management and healthy boundaries.
