Life can feel overwhelming when you’re juggling anxiety, relationships, work, family responsibilities, or major life changes. You may be so focused on caring for others that you’ve lost sight of your own needs. If you’re feeling exhausted, stuck, or unsure where to turn, you’re not alone.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, accepted, and truly heard. Together, we’ll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build effective coping strategies, strengthen emotional resilience, and work toward the life you want to create. I am trauma trained in EMDR also.

I’m Dr. Carter Comrie, PhD, LP, a clinical health psychologist in Detroit, MI. My ideal clients feel stuck in survival mode—carrying the weight of trauma, chronic stress, anxiety/depression, PTSD, chronic pain, identity concerns, or adjusting to health conditions. They need a grounded space that feels safe, collaborative, and deeply understood. Their goal is to shift from emotional reactivity to responsiveness, rebuild self-trust, and create a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with their values. They want relief—and lasting change—because they’re ready to reclaim their voice.

I became a psychologist to help individuals learn to appreciate their individuality and understand that not everyone learns, processes, and thinks the same way; but rather everyone is unique and can benefit from therapy. I enjoy teaching coping skills to people so they can feel more empowered and take control of their own lives. I find this especially important when working with clients that have had a past diagnosis of a learning disorder. I feel everyone has the potential for growth but the path to growth is not the same for everyone.

Being human is challenging at every stage of life. From our earliest years through adulthood, we all navigate big feelings, challenges, transitions, and the experiences that shape who we are. My ideal clients are highly sensitive children, caring adults, and families seeking a deeper understanding of emotions, behaviors, and relationships. They often come to my practice when feelings become overwhelming or past experiences are influencing the present. I provide a warm, supportive space where clients can explore their inner worlds through attachment-based care, emotional skill-building, and inner child work.

If you are an individual having difficulty processing grief and loss, struggling with daily functioning, emotional regulation, interpersonal conflict, and trouble managing societal expectations, then therapy would be a good start.
As a therapist I focus on client reported needs and barriers towards meeting those needs. Therapy is not meant to be a quick fix to avoiding pain, finding happiness, or forgetting personal struggles. Therapy serves as a mirror to help you improve self-reflection and enjoy emotional experiences . My main focus is to provide a nonjudgmental space where clients can think out loud and figure it out.
