Eclectic Therapists in Swartz Creek, MI

My favorite thing in the world is to affirm for someone that their feelings matter. I want you to feel safe expressing all of your thoughts and emotions. There is no problem too big or too small to talk about. No matter the situation, your reactions and feelings are important. I view therapy as a collaborative process. My clients tell me what they need help with, and we work together to figure out what their best course of action is. My job isn’t to tell you what to do and send you away. My job is to listen to you and empower you to take action to improve your life.

I have a passion for working with adolescents and their parents or guardians, young adults, and people who have a history of trauma. Finding an individual identity, personal interests, and focusing on strengths and values are integral parts of most sessions with me. My personal philosophy is to meet clients where they are in life, and a create a life they are excited to live. I help clients identify and use their strengths to achieve their goals. I love working holistically with overall wellness, body positivity, healthy at every size, self-acceptance, self-empowerment, and disordered eating behavior.

Hey, I'm Sam. My goal is to help you navigate through life when it just keeps showing up - whether that is processing through past experiences and traumas, or working through current obstacles to reach your goals.

I am a fully licensed psychologist with over 40 years of experience treating adolescents, adults, elderly, individuals, couples and families. My approach is eclectic, using whatever therapeutic techniques are appropriate to each individual's needs. I am an interactive therapist. Short term therapy is my preferred approach, in order to enable individuals to become healthier, more functional and to move on without interminable therapy. My practice also consists of forensic psychology and industrial/organizational psychological consultation. I coach employees, managers and corporate executives. Initial appointments are within at most within one week of client's contact.

My name is Ashley Nederveld, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based outside of Grand Rapids, Michigan. I work with clients via telehealth throughout the state of Michigan. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and stress. I have found that my approach works well with individuals who are experiencing stress due to a period of life transitions. This may include going off to college, welcoming a new baby, job/career changes, setting boundaries, or retirement adjustments.

As we move through life, challenges can either keep us stuck or propel us into new ideas, perceptions, and growth. Counseling and life coaching can help navigate those challenges with a positive, healthy mind set. The healthier our mind set, the healthier our relationships will be with our self and others. Depression, anxiety, trauma, can hold us hostage from living our best life. Eclectic therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and others can help bring awareness and change and lead you to a happier, more fulfilling life.

My goal as a therapist is to provide clients with a safe and supportive environment while encouraging and promoting them to grow mentally, intellectually, psychologically, socially and spiritually to reach their optimal potential of autonomy.

I also provide mentoring and academic tutoring for children and adolescence.

It is my belief that every individual is unique and that each person will bring specific needs and goals into therapy. By using an eclectic approach to therapy, I strive to increase an individual's well-being. I work with individuals with the intention that each person may employ healthy coping skills in order to utilize strengths and process through difficulties. I provide a warm and comfortable environment in which an individual is able to enhance their own sense of well-being.
