Teletherapy for Michigan

Hi, thanks for reaching out. I know this is hard because you’re not usually a reacher outer. You're existing in spaces with people all around you but you feel small, maybe invisible. You’re disconnected from your own body, your desires, your partner(s), and your community. You feel frazzled and fragmented and flat-out exhausted. You also have an inkling, a knowing that somewhere inside you there is another way but you haven't learned to trust your knowing yet. You don't want to keep doing what you've always done, but have no idea how to go forward.

Taking the first step in the decision to ask for help is courageous and can also be scary. Change is difficult and the fear of the unknown can feel overwhelming. Our goal at Sonder Counseling is to help you explore your desire for change in a safe and judgment free space. It is important to us that you are in control of your journey while using us for support and guidance. We are a group practice of clinicians and will do our best to match you with a counselor who is the right fit for you and has current availability.

People come to me because they feel trapped, depressed, anxious or angry, or stuck in a rut. There is a huge gap between expectations and reality together with a breakdown in their mind, body, emotions, and spirit. They feel unregulated, unbalanced, unable to sleep, exhausted, in pain, in fight or flight mode most of the time and sometimes, have suicidal tendencies. They are crying or screaming in one way or the other. They want relief, things to go back to where they were, change, peace of mind and time to heal. Most importantly, they want love and compassion.

Do you feel different, disconnected, or damaged? Are you tired of trying to fit into a nice little box or live up to society's expectations of who you're "supposed" to be? Let us help you find your own voice, discover your strengths, accept your true self, and live an authentic life! Through compassionate counseling, we'll help you learn how to express your wants and needs, develop healthy coping skills, practice self-care, improve your relationships, and achieve your goals.

I believe the purpose of counseling is for individuals to tap into their inner knowing, develop a deeper understanding of their true selves, identify the life experiences that contribute to present day problems, and to move forward in the most authentic way possible. I serve as a guide who supports my clients in the process of finding their own answers and taking responsibility for creating solutions and action in their life. I work with individuals, couples, and all age groups.

People enter into a counseling relationship when nothing else seems to be working. Although most people soon make comments such as, “(Counseling) was a lot better than I thought it would be”, few people seek counseling as a first option. More often we seek out techniques that either help us to temporarily avoid (e.g., media, social networking) our anxiety, or we seek temporary shots of pleasure (e.g., alcohol, food, pornography) that make us feel good for a short time. Soon enough we realize that all of these things leave us feeling more hollow and lonely, and that is when we start thinking about counseling.

Life is often stressful and living with chronic illness only makes life more challenging. Having a therapist who also understands the mental and emotional side of chronic illness/diabetes can be really helpful. In my practice, I work with clients by compassionately building from their strengths, increasing their coping strategies for more insight and self-understanding, increased emotional regulation and stress management, and improving depression, anxiety, trauma, and diabetes-related distress.

Are you feeling like it's finally time to discover if you have ADHD? Or get serious about living with the ADHD you've ignored? People see you as confident and hard-working, but on the inside you're waiting for the other shoe to drop, worried that any day now, people will see the "real" you and be disappointed.

Hello and welcome! You are so courageous for considering the next step in your healing journey. My name is Jennifer (Jen) Towns (she/her). It is my personal and professional belief that everyone can discover their most authentic and successful self. I invite you to a safe space where you can learn to trust, speak your truth, and realize your potential for emotional growth and change. ​I practice trauma-informed integrative therapy - blending somatic body work, EMDR, IFS / ego-state parts work, and a general recognition of the impact of traumas and attachment wounds on ourselves and our relationships.

It’s hard to tell someone else your deepest secrets. The truth about your gender, your desires, your struggling relationship. You’re left feeling alienated and unsure if you will ever find the kind of true connection that you crave. You know deep inside that relationships and intimacy are meant to be wonderful…but something is holding you back. Fear of rejection. Fear of judgement. Fear of not being enough. Fear of not knowing what to do. Fear of being alone. I'm here to help with this sense of disconnection and despair. I believe we all deserve to love and be loved- and especially, to love ourselves.
