Female Therapists in Commerce Township, MI

Life can present with a lot of challenges. Trying to conceive, pregnancy, loss, labor, delivery, postpartum, parenting, relationship issues, just navigating life, etc. can be difficult. And isolating. It's okay to admit things aren't okay. It's not all rainbows and butterflies AND there are beautiful moments. We can hold space for all of the thoughts and emotions we think and feel, while also learning new coping skills, challenging and reframing (unhealthy) thought patterns, creating/maintaining boundaries and increasing self-compassion.

This may not happen every day and maybe not every week, but when it does you'd rather crawl back in bed and hide.
