John Tuttle graduated from Western Michigan University with a Masters of the Arts degree in Clinical Mental Health. John is licensed in the State of Michigan as a Clinical Mental Health Provider and is an Adjunct Psychology Professor. He currently owns and is the primary therapist at Lakeshore Guidance, LLC. John also holds a Masters of Education degree from Grand Valley State University and has worked with elementary and middle schools on anti-bullying initiatives and crisis response interventions.
John is currently accepting clients and patients. His interpersonal approach to counseling, and belief that the counseling relationship is the single most important factor in effective counseling, allows clients to find him approachable, open, and helpful. Clients find that John goes above and beyond the typical therapeutic relationship.
John offers very individualized care. Your call will go directly to his cell phone and you will work directly with him - no secretaries or answering services. This also means that clients are often scheduled within days or even hours of first contact. If interested, clients may have "Shadow" join their sessions (Shadow is a Rhodesian Ridgeback Therapy Dog).
