Therapists in Michigan

Accepting Clients!! & Accepting Therapists Needing Supervision. Substance abuse and depression began to impact my family when I was young. I have deep compassion for those struggling with the disease of addiction. By utilizing my knowledge and empathy for these individuals, I am able to assist them in their therapeutic processes. I have over 10 years worth of experience within the mental health field, whether it be working with individuals in the criminal justice system or conducting individual, family therapy, and couples therapy. I am currently accepting clients for a variety of mental health concerns at Right Direction Counseling

Our highly trained and compassionate therapists are here to help as am I. Life can quickly take a turn leaving us in shock, feeling like our future is uncertain and out of control. Seeking help processing is the first step to healing. Knowing that you are not alone as you navigate through the process brings a sense of comfort and reassurance needed in difficult times.

We (Ben and Taylora Bookie) are a husband and wife team who share a common vision to minister to individuals, couples, and families who need support and encouragement in any area of their lives. We love God and we love people, and out of this love we want to come alongside others to promote wellness and health in all areas of life.

As a mature woman who has grown from life's trials and challenges, I believe in the inherent resiliency and strength we all possess. While focused on client desired outcomes, I team with individuals to identity strengths which facilitate autonomy, improved coping strategies and empowerment. Together, we would seek to eliminating barriers ranging from multicultural issues, situational hardships and personal crisis. Utilizing my training in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Faith Based Counseling and Crisis Intervention, my aim is to assist individuals in identifying and overcoming obstacles to realize optimal living.

Transformation from depression, anxiety, personal problems, grief, life transitions and other issues can be challenging. It is important to have the right support and a strong, positive relationship with your counselor. I work to provide an environment that is both safe and non-judgmental. I will help you identify the things you want to be different in your life and develop skills and a plan for reaching your desired goals.

NOW accepting new clients for teletherapy! You want to heal, but feel lost, pressured, or self-critical? We all need extra help sometimes navigating difficult situations, transitions, trauma, or relationships, and the stress, anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem that can ensue. I can’t wait to empower you to take control of your life and grow into your new path. Each person is unique, so I adapt my therapeutic interventions to your strengths, current needs, and goals using an integrative, culturally-sensitive approach. My practice is online only, using HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing, to make help more accessible to you.

Sometimes when you feel broken, you need the help of another to rebuild. But where do you start when you’re seeking a therapist who is empathetic and experienced, supportive and compassionate? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 23 years experience, I promise I am here to offer you a hand, not a judgment. Over two decades, I have worked with individuals, couples and families specializing in depression, anxiety, grief/loss, bereavement, body image, caregiver stress, family issues, relationship struggles and adjustment disorders/life transitions.

I have experience with Mood Disorders, depression, grief and bereavement, childhood trauma, child sexual trauma, PTSD, growing up in foster care, teen parents, domestic violence, cultural/identify issues. I have experience working with ages 4 - 75 years old. I have a passion for the minority communities especially the third culture population with issues such as culture shock and assimilation.

Often, our past experiences leave us wounded. The story that we tell ourselves becomes permeated with negative thoughts, low self-worth, and shame. As these feelings manifest, we become anxious and depressed. We might experience isolation, loneliness, and a loss of connection to others and to ourselves. Therapy can help us discover perspectives that create a new narrative, one in which we have different ways to manage our emotions and lead a more enjoyable life.

Our mission is to provide a safe space for individuals, families, and groups to explore and resolve life issues. We offer an array of therapeutic services to meet the needs of diverse populations. If you are dealing with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, anger, trauma or other issues related to mental health or substance abuses, don't hesitate to call us. We offer in person, virtual, and in- home sessions. Don't wait, we're ready to help you.

My ideal client faces the impact of trauma and life events, caught in patterns hindering progress. Struggling with past experiences, heightened emotions, and frequent criticism, they often question their mental well-being. You're an ideal fit if you seek someone genuinely interested in hearing and understanding your story. I'm here to walk alongside you as you craft a new narrative. If you're seeking growth in relationships, self-worth, relief from pain, and overall life development, you've come to the right place. Let's work together to create a life you truly want to live.

Life gets overwhelming. Sometimes we need some support in the areas we feel lost. We can help. Are you or someone in your family suffering from ADD? Are there academic issues? Are there behavioral concerns? Symptoms? Learning challenges? Does that spouse seem to not pay attention? Lose things? Get tasks confused? Does your family member seem to know which buttons to press without trying? Is all this frustrating you beyond your limit? We can help.

There are times in our lives when it becomes essential for us to seek greater self-awareness and a fuller sense of meaning and purpose. Perhaps you're experiencing the end of a relationship, a major life transition, an intense period of stuckness, or frequent 3am panic that leaves you in a tailspin. Or, you might just be feeling like nothing is terribly wrong, but still not quite right. I offer support for adults 18+ who are looking for insight into their past experiences and present choices in order to craft a future that feels safe, authentic, and meaningful.

The ideal client is a motivated individual seeking personal growth, self-empowerment, and a sense of purpose. They are open to guidance, support, and new perspectives, and they strive to align their goals and actions with their authentic selves. By investing in their personal development, they aim to cultivate meaningful relationships, achieve work-life balance, and live a fulfilling and purposeful life.

The journey inwards can be the next step in moving forward. Being willing to ask yourself the tough questions, become accountable, and be vulnerable takes courage. I am an advocate, supporter of others, healer of sorts (through words), and I do my best to offer compassion, a listening ear, and be your partner in the healing process. I thrive on human connection, whether it be through exchanging stories, memories, hardships, successes, failures, and learning from life’s inevitable mistakes. I believe in resilience during the presence of fear, anger when faced with injustice, and the capability to bounce back from adversity.

Do you feel as if your life is unmanageable? Are you struggling to manage your life as is? It’s no secret that life doesn’t fight fair. At times, it can seem that nothing goes the way we really want it to, no matter how well we plan. Fortunately, we were built to adapt and recover quickly. It is our own resilience that dictates what happens next and not life’s quirkiness or unpredictability. I collaborate with adults 18 and older to successfully manage life using healthy responses and sustainable coping skills. I have assisted individuals with addictions, complex-trauma, and personality disorders for 5+ years.

I provide a welcoming, safe and non-judgmental space. I work with people who seek support for anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, relationships, family issues, social challenges, identity, substance use, life balance, and life transitions/stressors. I support people with areas such as work, school, productivity, immigration, illness and self-care. I have experience working with, and welcome, people of different sexual orientations, gender identities, race, spirituality, and cultural backgrounds. I also have experience working with social workers and therapists.

Deciding to make real life change is hard. It would be my pleasure to assist you in gaining clarity, insight and direction to fully embark on the next chapter. The ideal client is anyone who seeks to become a better version of themselves. I believe that change starts with our thoughts, and once we change our thoughts our behaviors will follow suit.

Through our lifetimes we are confronted with many obstacles, challenges and decisions. In the process of becoming the best you, guidance and support can be truly beneficial. Self-discovery through therapy can be an empowering and enlightening process. Incorporating my life and work experience, combined with a safe and supportive space, my hope is to help guide you through the challenges of life.
