As an African American from a low-income background, I am inspired to help individuals cope with systemic issues affecting your identity.

Are you feeling stuck, and unsure how to move forward? Its hard figuring out where to start, whether it be one big event or many smaller things piling up over time. Everyone could use some extra support at times, and it takes a lot of courage to talk about the struggles in your life.

I provide counseling for adolescents and adults to improve functioning and self-satisfaction.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders, or problematic behaviors? You want to overcome these obstacles and reconnect with the joy of living. My ideal client is someone like you who wants to achieve goals and live a fulfilling life.

I approach each session with a nonjudgmental, empathetic, and listening ear. Through my work, I invite you to explore outside your comfort zone to realize the abundance of possibilities that may exist for you. Because all relationships go through ups and down, I will offer support to examine how you can focus on personal development while, also introducing techniques that will improve your relationships with yourself and others. I feel it is important to meet people where they are at but still encourage goal setting. When working with clients, I look at how past experiences, including trauma, affect their current experiences.

My goal is to create a comfortable and safe environment where you can creatively express yourself! I focus on the whole person and use a mix of techniques including mindfulness and creative expression to address a variety of issues. We will work together to set goals and create steps to achieve those goals. Adults that I sit with typically struggle with life transitions, daily stress, trauma, parenting difficulties, depression and/or anxiety related issues. In my work with children, I incorporate caregivers and/or families into sessions regularly because I believe that caregivers play a critical role in a child's development.

Dr. Shawn Nabors specializes in treating chronic anxiety disorders/issues in adults and teens. He is a skilled West Michigan anxiety specialist who is committed to the treatment and research of anxiety disorders.

Accepting the journey we've been on and the need for change can feel overwhelming. Often therapy is seen as a one sided conversation, let's change that narrative together. As your therapist, it is important to me to create a relationship where you feel safe and supported. We can explore what acceptance, healing, and growth means to you and create a plan to achieve those goals.

Therapy is hard, but it doesn't have to be terrible. My job is to make you feel confident with your decision to reach out for help while guiding you through your own personal growth and healing.

I offer individual and family therapy for adolescents and adults in a LGBTQ+ open and affirming practice. Please reach out if you would like to connect about the therapy process.

We can sit here and tell you all about how experienced we are, how we have worked with all individuals and many mental health concerns, but when you look for a therapist, is that the most important thing that you look for? Maybe it is, or maybe you are looking for a therapist that you can relate to, that provides a warm and inviting environment. Maybe you want someone that can throw all rules aside and when you are having a bad day/week can be there just to listen. If you can relate, then Willow Path Counseling is the right place.
