Gottman Method Therapists in Detroit, MI

I believe that counseling is a collaborative process that is driven by a strong therapeutic relationship. I use an integrative approach with emphasis of cognitive behavioral therapy to address client concerns. I believe in adapting my approach to meet the needs of presenting concerns. I aim to create a safe space for clients to explore their problems, concerns, and experiences. The goal of counseling is to gain insight about presenting concerns and develop or strengthen client’s ability to cope with past, present, and future situations.

I work both individually and in groups with men/boys seeking support exploring how masculine socialization relates to their problems, and cultivating healthier masculinity to heal themselves, their interpersonal relationships, and patriarchal systems of gender-based oppression in their communities. I also work with a variety of clients of different backgrounds and experiences looking for a therapist with an anti-oppressive lens, who will regard the client as the expert on their life and experiences, and see their struggles in the integrated context of the personal, cultural, and universal levels of their human experience.

As a counselor, I aim to provide a warm, accepting atmosphere in order for every client to feel welcome to share their story.

Vulnerability: while rewarding, can be daunting. It isn’t easy to let someone into your internal landscape and I value the possibility of learning yours. My name is Sam and I work with clients to become intimately comfortable with the buried and beautifully impactful aspects of themselves. Often, the relationship to yourself contributes to how your days unfold in the world around you. When was the last time you heard or nurtured the parts of yourself that long for you? In doing so, a gateway opens up to a sense of self-worth that will allow you to experience yourself and your environment with a new lens.

I approach therapy with the ideology that life is a culmination of interconnected parts. Feelings stem from experiences, experiences influence perceptions, and subsequently guide many of the decisions one makes in life. When individuals experience stagnation or challenges, it may be connected to an array of life experiences. This may lead to a challenge with seeing beyond that which is. The subsequent result may serve as a breeding ground for emotional and physical pain, challenges in interpersonal relationships and unresolved grief.

My name is Christopher Baumann, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I understand that often we go through life managing internal struggles, while attempting to navigate our circumstances. By seeking greater understanding into us and our relationships, we may come face to face with our deepest doubts and fears. Avoiding struggles and pain opens up the possibility for dysfunction, negativity, and neglect. Being a human is messy. It's not as neat as our "should" and "shouldn't" would have us believe. You are allowed to talk about things that upset you. You are allowed to hold people accountable.

I specialize in supporting healthcare professionals, nurses, teachers and students with anxiety or depression who are struggling in their career, education or relationships. Many feel stuck, burnt out, angry, and overwhelmed. The chronic stress and compassion fatigue make it hard for them to empathize with patients, students and administrators. Some may prefer to be alone, even though it leads to ruminating over traumatic work experiences and substance use. My clients have demanding jobs, are highly trained and accustomed to solving problems. However, no one is immune to the long-term effects of stress and trauma.
