Therapists in Lincoln Park, MI

I believe that every person has the ability to change & grow, & I think the best way to help someone grow is through therapy. I work with adults only (ages 18 & up) and focus on the clients needs as well as areas in which they want to grow and improve. I believe that with guidance it is possible to heal wounds created throughout the course of ones life. I have worked with many clients over the years who feel stuck and unsure how or what to do to feel better and get out of their "rut." If you're struggling to find meaning or if you feel as though your life is not how you imagined it would be, please email me to set up an appointment.

We all experience difficulties and crises in our lives. You may be having difficulty with a life transition, grief and loss, issues related to adverse childhood experiences, relationship issues, or anxiety and/or depression from a source you are unable to identify. You do not have to face these issues alone, and I believe that I can help guide you to the other side of whatever struggle or pain it is that you are facing. Regardless of age, we all continue to have periods of growth, struggle, and change. The best way to grow and to heal is in an atmosphere of nonjudgmental, warmth and compassion, which I believe I can provide.

We often seek therapy when we feel overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, or a life transition. I create an empathic, non-judgmental space where you can gain insight, recognize your strengths, and become more confident and secure. I believe each person is the expert on their own life and experience. Together, we’ll identify the patterns that are holding you back, as well as your unique strengths. I tailor my approach to best meet your needs and abilities. Sometimes, that means I provide practical, active strategies so you can feel more calm, balanced, and empowered.

Hey, my name is Genny! It takes a lot for someone to recognize that they need someone to help guide them in fulfilling their goals and living an empowered life.

I allow people to set their pace and goals for therapy to ensure that they get the most out of our time together.

Mental strength is not the ability to stay out of the darkness; it's the ability to sit present in the darkness knowing that the light will shine again. As a psychotherapist, my goal is to provide clients with a safe place to feel relaxed and able to speak freely and honestly. I'm there to motivate, engage and guide them. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, client-centered, problem solving and motivational techniques. I aim to provide an empathically supportive atmosphere, where clients can feel at ease, take a deep breath and begin to look at their life's problems from a fresh, new perspective.

Hello, I'm McKenzie! I am a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor that works with adults with anxiety, depression, and trauma although I expand to many different reasons someone would seek therapy.

Evening availability open! You struggle with confidence in your identity, feeling as though you have to mask your truest self. You feel like you have to camouflage who you are in order to fit in, only to leave you drained and frustrated. After time, this may end up looking like social anxiety, depression, or questioning your sense of belonging. You haven't felt the opportunity to explore your identity, or maybe a new stage of life is challenging your current sense of self. You strive to have a safe space to explore this, challenge your inner and societal expectations, and find overall self acceptance.

My approach is to provide an accepting, compassionate, warm, and empathic environment where we work together to discover and make better, the parts of us and our environment that interfere with daily life. It's my belief that we are all capable of positive change with the focus on the person as a whole. Our growth touches and impacts not only ourselves, but the relationships we are a part of and the environment we live in. I specialize in EMDR and I provide virtual therapy only.

I have a passion for working with individuals looking to escape the yo-yo dieting cycle, learn about the many negatives of diet culture, and finally find body and food acceptance.

Growing up in a rural area in the thumb of Michigan taught me about the power of community and human connection, which I always bring to sessions!
