Oppositional Defiance (ODD) Therapists in Davison, MI

I have been working in the education system for twenty years. During that time, I have learned that most children and adolescents just want to be heard. With all of the pressures and expectations put on children and adolescents today, they need a safe space to talk about what is going on in their homes, schools, neighborhoods and inside their heads.

My goal as a counselor is to provide understanding, relatability, compassion, and genuineness. There are a multitude of situations in life we do not have control over; however, there are many things in life we can control. When we arm ourselves with tools and resources to manage the things we can control in life, our mental health begins to experience the benefits of our efforts. In adulthood, we exhibit behaviors of survival that has helped us survive as an individual. Carrying wounds (abuse, neglect, abandonment, etc.) that has warped our worldview leading to cycles passed on through relationships, interactions, and generations.

*Now offering ADHD evaluations* My goal is to provide a relaxed environment where you feel free and supported to explore your thoughts and feelings. I work to help you recognize your true emotions that may be hiding behind initial reactions of defensiveness or anger. Together, we can identify maladaptive patterns of behavior that may be contributing to symptoms of depression or anxiety, or that may be creating barriers to communication. Identification of these patterns provides the opportunity to change them and ultimately find more joy in experiences, intimacy in relationships, and the ability to communicate effectively.

My time spent working in the school system gave me great insight into what young people face every day. I am passionate about children, adolescents, and their families. Many times, young individuals are unable to verbalize their feelings. Play therapy is a gift to your child, that will aid them in communicating and exploring their inner world and emotions. Toys are used as a voice. I am also passionate about communicating with families and seeing marriages succeed. I would love to help you navigate any issue you may be facing.

I believe everyone deserves a counselor: a person who will listen, non-judgmentally, and support you through challenges. I am currently working virtually only - and, therefore, can take clients across Michigan.

Are you having a hard time processing life’s changes? Are you feeling overwhelmed? There is nothing wrong with seeking out help. Unapologetically! When we have a broken bone, we go to the doctor. If are car needs work, we take it to a mechanic. Same with our mental health, if something is off, we should seek out help. There's nothing wrong with seeking out assistance to process life's challenges. I want my clients to be the best version of themselves and to have that listening ear in a non-judgmental safe space. And this is where I come into play.

Hi, my name is Donette L. Mabry MA LPC. I am a clinical therapist. I have always had a listening ear and a desire to serve others by helping them meet their goals clinically, mentally, socially, professionally, spiritually and emotionally. I put my life experience and my academic studies to work for you. My approach to clinical therapy is Cognitive Behavioral, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus and a mix of other techniques. The needs of my clients are most important to me so I am not limited in therapeutic approaches. Let’s work together to win that healthy, happy life you expect and deserve.

Are you looking for assistance with managing stress, relationships, grief, parenting, anxiety, trauma and/or depression? Or, are you interested in help with weight loss, adjustment to illness, or stopping smoking? I am a board certified Health Psychologist specializing in short-term counseling (usually 6-10 visits but could be more/less). I believe that people benefit more from short spurts of counseling over a lifetime (as needed) rather than meeting regularly for long periods of time. I give you the skills. You live life and return as needed. I offer individual, couples, and family therapy.

Are you tired of caretaking for everyone and feeling like no one cares for you? Do you struggle to give yourself the same kindness & compassion that you so easily give to others? Does guilt get in the way of you saying no and setting boundaries? Most of my clients are impacted by these issues and feel helpless in living an abundant life of self-love. My expertise is working with people to find healing and restoration through empowerment, developing insight, and working with the body. I understand how power, oppression, and trauma can contribute to distress and I work to instill hope.

You never thought that raising a child would be so difficult or overwhelming! You want to connect with your kid but feel distant and out of touch. Maybe there's a cultural gap, or maybe your teen is dealing with mental health issues that you find hard to understand or know what to do. Your strong-willed child may be challenging their school and home environments, resisting you every step of the way. Perhaps your adolescent is detached and unmotivated and you wish to help them find their spark. You may feel under-appreciated or lonely in your struggles and find yourself repeating actions you promised you would never do as a parent.
