Chronic Illness Therapists in Hudsonville, MI

Comments from Robert about his approach to therapy: We all have times in our lives that can shake us at our foundation. Coming into therapy, whether if it’s for the first time, or this has been a theme in your life takes courage. I think to be helpful the first thing is to feel understood, feel heard, acknowledged, and validated. Next, it is to discover whatever it is that you’re facing means for you as an individual, then gaining skills with which to cope adaptively. I believe acceptance is the key to facing difficulties in life. Acceptance does not mean approval, it means we learn to live life as it is, not how we want it.

It is my passion to help people explore patterns in their life and relationships. It is my intent to provide hope and encouragement as people courageously take steps to make their life more manageable. The relationship with each of my clients is important to me -- I consider it a privilege to be trusted in people's lives as a facilitator in a healing process.

Hi, I'm Faith (she/her)! I specialize in working with youth and adults, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities, who are navigating complex emotions and challenges with grief, anxiety, depression, identity, and chronic illness and pain.

Together, we'll create a safe and affirming space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment.

Life is difficult, no matter where you are in the journey. Loss-whether sudden or expected, can turn your world upside down. Grief affects us not just emotionally, but physically, spiritually and cognitively. The smallest tasks can be incredibly difficult. Loss changes people, and that loss, will always be a part of you. But there is hope. Hope that you will find joy again, and that your loss can be integrated into who you will become after the loss. If you are feeling lost and looking for hope, I would really like to help.

We all have meaningful stories to tell, and I look forward to learning how I can be of service to you, whether it’s easing stress, improving communication, getting your relationship (with others and yourself) back on track or helping you develop healthy thinking patterns. I can help give you “tools for your toolbox” to help overcome life’s obstacles. My goal is for you to feel valued, safe, and heard while building a relationship of trust and understanding. I will walk alongside you and provide collaborative, action oriented and honest feedback to shape your journey towards a greater sense of freedom, meaning & purpose.

I have a heart for helping people and walking alongside them in their journey of healing. Life can bring unexpected pain and suffering.

Everyone can benefit from talking to someone who is not a family member or friend. Someone who will truly hear your needs and unconditionally support you. I am here for you! Please Call Today!

I enjoy working with a broad range of clients...from children who have been impacted by trauma, to adults who are struggling with life changes, unresolved trauma, or anxiety/depression. I honor that all of us are individual human beings with different needs, therefore, I like to tailor my therapeutic sessions to the person I'm sitting with at the moment. I believe that all of us need a safe space to be heard and to process all that life may throw at us throughout different stages of our journey. My passion is to create that safe space for anyone who feels I would be a good fit for them.

Are you facing difficulties in your personal life, whether in your relationships with partners, family, or friends or dealing with the mental health impact of life stressors or women's health issues? Know that you are not alone. Many individuals encounter similar challenges.

Have you ever wished for a way to feel better and learn to manage your emotions or a way to a better future? I work with children and adolescents, and those who care for them. I have experience in the areas of stress reduction/coping, post-partum depression, anxiety, and grief and loss. With children, I treat trauma, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, grief, and behavioral disorders such as ADHD and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. I have also worked with PECS (Picture Exchange Communication System) with children who have autism and are nonverbal.

I am a firm believer that people are extremely resilient and it is a strength to ask for help!  My background is in child welfare where I have witnessed individuals, families and children overcome severe trauma. As a clinician, I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where we work as a team to face any and all barriers within your life.  Because you are your biggest catalyst for change, we work together to create a treatment focus centered around your personal mental health goals.
