Therapists in Ingham County, MI

Whether dealing with the effects of trauma, a loss, struggling with anxiety or depression, or coping with a life transition, it can help to explore concerns in a safe and supportive environment. I believe that a therapist’s role is to be a listening ear, provide feedback, offer support, and provide resources as clients explore their concerns, identify solutions, and develop plans of action that best fit their chosen life journeys.

Everyone has at least one problem to solve." The "good news" is the solutions you desire reside in you. My goal is to provide you with a safe and comfortable place to discuss these issues. You will gain new insight and tools to move you beyond limiting beliefs and behaviors that have prevented you from reaching your goals. Get ready to experience inner peace, increased stability, and a new momentum to reach your goals.

I work with individual or groups of adults or children who seek help with issues of grief and loss, anxiety, depression, health concerns, life transitions, addiction and or co-occurring disorders. My role as a professional counselor is to listen and help each client identify strengths & challenges, set appropriate goals and skill-build to reach them. My training is from a cognitive behavioral framework and my approach is holistic. I assist clients in bringing physical, mental emotional and spiritual understanding and balance to their lives.

Life is full of challenges, which I view as opportunities for growth and learning. I join alongside clients age 17+ who are facing a wide range of issues including: navigating life transitions, interpersonal relationship conflicts, academic or professional challenges, adjusting to changes at home or in the family structure, exposure to abuse or neglect, establishing boundaries in relationships, healing from past trauma, and navigating grief and loss. We are all on our own journeys and I welcome the opportunity to join you on yours.

Life is challenging but you do not have to suffer. I specialize in working with people who have undergone trauma and/or significant loss. That loss may be a loved one, your health and wellbeing, your confidence, a job or relationship. Whatever it is, all loss is painful and often difficult to move beyond. I am also well equipped to help those with other concerns such as depression, anxiety, self esteem or anger. Most of these issues have their root in some form of trauma, large or small. I can help you find your way back.

When asked “What is my ideal client”? My response will always be you! I have an innate passion for people and feel that one’s healing journey should be customized to suit their individual need(s). I take a strength-based person-centered approach to help each client begin to identify/build upon their abilities to overcome obstacles at every stage of life. Upon working together, we will focus on healing holistically, integrating techniques suited for the whole person aligning spirit, mind, body, soul, and goals.

My ideal client could be anyone who is interested in setting goals and boundaries to improve their life, not only for now, but the future.

For 45 years, I have specialized in treating undiagnosed or untreated trauma, loss, grief, chronic illness, addictions and gender and or sexual fluidity. Most clients are externally 'highly functioning' in their day to day life. Their pain is hidden and invisible. I work to gently but directly guide us to discover self created barriers often outside our everyday awareness, to facilitate the process of identifying, acknowledging, grieving and letting go (over and over again!) of those things that interfere with creating a healthier, more contented and meaningful life.

I offer a compassionate, flexible, safe space for people who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma or strong feelings of grief over the loss of a loved one. My goal is to help you stop feeling overwhelmed and start guiding you to where things feel manageable again. I take great joy in providing you a place to feel the difficult things you need to feel, explore your thoughts, feelings, goals and really accept you for who you are and where you are in your current life circumstances.

My name is Joan McDevitt and I am looking forward to assisting you if you are going through a difficult time in your life. Perhaps it is a life transition, stressful events, or having problems with anger, grief and loss, feelings, mood, behavior, or thoughts. Maybe a loved one passed away months or years ago and the sadness is unbearable. Or you could be struggling with memories, images, and feelings resulting from a traumatic event. And you are looking for a compassionate therapist who will guide and support you on your path to healing and thriving.

Sudden or unexpected change, as well as an absence of change or being stuck, can bring on feelings that prevent us from living fully. Change may not be gentle or easy, but dedicated time with the right support can help move you toward improved well-being.
