In the dark of night, the flower bloomed. My ideal client is sick of going in cycles, feeling badly, of the same old patterns occurring in their life that don't serve them or their loved ones. You want to talk to someone who's been through dark times themselves; who can understand and is equipped to help. You want resolution for those things that happened; for those fears. You are often overwhelmed, find yourself reliving the past, worrying about the future, and/or missing out on the present. It can be better! Asking for help is a catalyst for personal progress, growth and success- however you define it. Why not go for it?

I am a clinical psychologist in private practice for more than 15 years in the St.Clair Shores area. Over that time I have enjoyed working with many families and individuals to find solutions to their problems. I hold a degree in Clinical Psychology from Wayne State University in 1994. I later completed an internship at Henry Ford Hospital with a specialization in working with children and adolescents.

I will support the growth of teens and adults who struggle with self confidence, decision making, relationships, and planning for the future. Exploration will begin with examining home life, social skills, and aspects of career or school. If one is struggling with any of these elements, it is likely having a negative impact on other areas. In addition, I can improve a student-athlete's performance in competition. By taking the same approach, an athlete can maximize their potential by identifying and improving other areas of their life away from the game.

Currently, I am accepting new clients for Accelerated Resolution Therapy, ART. I have familiarity working with individuals with a variety of mental health concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress from significant life changes, and substance use. I provide clients with a person-centered approach that is affirming and nonjudgmental. I strive to be sex positive, culturally sensitive, and LGBTQ+ affirming. I understand that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. I incorporate a blend of many different approaches to ensure that you are receiving the best possible care for you.

I believe the ability to be genuine and create connections with other people are the most important factors in maintaining peace and happiness. I encourage my clients to strive toward this by helping them explore who they are and find the tools they need to evolve into who they want to become. My style is candid and compassionate. I challenge my clients, but I realize that each person comes in with different needs, interests, and talents. I approach the treatment of each client with an eclectic perspective based on their personal qualities and situations.

I believe in a person's ability to persevere and evolve through their struggles. Everyone has the potential to achieve their goals when given the proper nourishment and environment. As a therapist, I strive to provide that environment. I foster a trusting and caring relationship and focus on the unique experiences that each individual brings.

My name is Mallory Gordon. Looking for a therapist can be frustrating and/or stressful, especially when you or a loved one is going through a difficult time. I provide a judgement-free and compassionate environment for my clients. I often work with young adults experiencing stress, anxiety, and relationship issues (family, friends, and romantic). I invite you to follow the link to my website to get more information about my experience and my approach to therapy.

My role as a therapist is to partner with you, to learn about and respect where you've been and where you are now, and to help you build strategies for positive changes. I primarily use a person-centered and solution-focused approach. I take the time to get to know you, to help you identify your strengths, and help determine how to use your strengths to achieve your goals and move towards the next chapter in your personal story.

My private practice includes work with adults, adolescents and couples, with a specialty in adolescence and young adulthood. I have particular experience in treating depression, eating disorders, relationship and divorce issues, dissociative disorders, and childhood abuse issues. My primary goals include helping people deepen their understanding of themselves and their current difficulties, identify problematic patterns in their lives, and work through old hurts within a safe, understanding therapeutic relationship. I have given several talks to parents in the metro Detroit area preparing for and parenting their adolescent children.

Do you behave in ways that you’re not always proud of? Have you been feeling disconnected from yourself and/ or others? Has it become harder to live your life the way you always have? The way we attach to our world was decided for us early on and defines all the ways we think, feel, and respond. Therapy can be a place for you to get to know your ‘early programming’ and receive clarity around what’s happening behind the scenes. Can you imagine having healthier relationships, greater confidence in yourself and your abilities, as well as more motivation to pursue your passions and seek joy?

My goal is to create a safe space and a welcoming environment for all my clients as well as provide a trusting therapeutic relationship. I earned an MS in Forensic Psychology from Southern New Hampshire University in 2019, and an MA in Clinical Psychology with an ABA concentration in 2023 from Michigan School of Professional Psychology. I approach therapy with a humanistic lens while incorporating diverse modalities for treatment that are individualized for each client to help them reach their therapy goals. A few includes CBT, coping strategies, and Behavioral Activation.

Whether life is presenting current challenges or the trauma you experienced in your past is preventing you from living in the present, therapy can be a powerful tool to help process those intense emotions and find ways to soothe. Enduring trauma can prevent us from living our life to the fullest, whether it’s repetitive negative thoughts, physical responses, painful memories, or feeling overwhelmed with everyday stressors. Emma provides a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to heal and gain new insights on their own unique experiences. Emma works with children thirteen years old and older, adolescents, and adults.

I am here to be your co-pilot on this journey, providing warmth and understanding in each session. I am dedicated to creating a safe and supportive space for individuals navigating the complexities of their experiences.

Everyone deserves a chance to live their best life. I believe that by becoming aware of, and owning, our thoughts, feelings and behaviors, we gain insight and control over our lives.
