Therapists in Northville, MI

I work with adults and older adolescents experiencing difficulty in navigating life's many challenges and uncertainties. Concerns related to depression, anxiety, relationships, identity, trauma, or loss can impact our emotional well-being and functioning. At times, our ways of coping can create further distress. Through a deeper understanding of ourselves and our patterns, therapy can facilitate change. I recognize each client as a unique individual and appreciate the need to tailor therapeutic experiences to fit your needs. My goal is to promote curiosity, insight, and autonomy, allowing for healthier ways of coping & healing.

I will never forget that terrible feeling that engulfed me. I was 19 years old and struggling just to catch my breath. I couldn't focus on anything but the sheer panic. I was having my first panic attack. It was a trusted therapist who came to my rescue. My therapist turned out to be a lighthouse for me when I was lost. With compassionate guidance she helped me heal and rid myself of the anxiety and panic. I valued what she did so much that it became my goal to also be that lighthouse for others who are drowning.

As a clinical therapist, my focus is on providing a safe and nonjudgmental space for individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. My ideal client is someone who is seeking support and guidance in navigating their mental health challenges and is motivated to make positive changes in their life. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, incorporating mindfulness techniques, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and psychodynamic principles to help clients gain insight and develop coping skills.

Facing challenges is inevitable in life, but that doesn't mean those challenges have to be faced alone. As a therapist, I have a genuine interest in understanding your story in a deep & meaningful way. With time, we can work together to help you develop a stronger sense of self & agency as we learn about your patterns of emotions, thoughts & beliefs through treatment.

If you are someone who is experiencing anxiety, depression, symptoms of trauma, lack of motivation, feelings of hopelessness or isolation, lack of purpose, problems in your relationship or some other life issue I may be able to help. We can work together using evidence-supported treatments such as EMDR, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and mindfulness based approaches to create the changes that you want to see in your life.

Are you struggling with the ups and downs of modern life? Are you going through a transition after a loss? Feeling overwhelmed and weighed down? As an interactive result-focused therapist I can help you weather the storm and make sense of overwhelming mixed emotions. With over 15 years of clinical experience, my treatment approach provides support and practical feedback to help clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns. My approach utilizes proven treatments including Cognitive- Behavioral therapy and Strength Based therapy. With these treatments I help my clients find solutions to a wide range of challenges.

I’m a masters-level fully licensed therapist with over 10yrs of experience - with a passion for helping the individuals I work with heal, grow & thrive as their authentic selves. I specialize in women’s issues, PTSD, complex trauma, childhood & generational trauma, codependency issues, addiction, self-esteem issues & anxiety disorders. I have a holistic & eclectic approach, using an array of evidenced-based techniques to help you meet your goals. I deeply value the process of therapy, both personally & professionally. “Mental health issues,” as we call them, are really just “life issues” – they define what it means to be human.

Are you feeling out of sorts? Maybe overwhelmed, sad, down, worry too much, hurt too much, and don’t know what do to next? Or maybe you are experiencing deep grief and would like some relief from the relentless tears and sadness. Believe me you are not alone. Remembering times in my life when I did not even know what I was feeling, I felt so isolated, lost and confused. I happened to stumble upon a professional that helped me. Someone that I could trust and felt very comfortable with. I was very hesitant to take this step but somehow I did. It was by far the best thing I have ever done for myself. This is why I became a therapist.

Let's rediscover your happiness-or redefine it. Evolve stale relationships; generate more meaningful experiences; introduce more peace and unity. Wherever you are struggling, I help you create a new lense through which you will gain insight into your thought patterns and behaviors and ultimately feel better. I earned my Masters degree in both clinical/community and school counseling, and a Masters degree in secondary education. I taught high school for 11 years, incorporating much adolescent, group, and family counseling during that time. I have expanded to counseling individuals and couples of all ages, including families.

Hello, if you are struggling right now to cope with some of the tough life challenges coming your way, know that mental health therapy is highly effective with results that can be life-changing and very gratifying.

Life comes with ups and downs... sometimes expected, other times not... and in the face of these realities, we can often use some help working through it all. Maybe you find yourself stuck in self-defeating patterns of living, feeling unfulfilled, unable to be happy in a relationship or job, or starting over. Perhaps you are experiencing low self-esteem or social anxiety and find have that you are having difficulty pursuing the activities or relationships that you desire.

Planning a family can be a challenging time for many. In spite of reading all the books, scanning the internet and asking all the questions, you may find it is not what you expected and your mental health can shift and change. I can support you through this delicate period. My work with young children and their caregivers is about building a safe, trusting relationship. Our earliest relationships provide the foundation for all future relationships. I work with parents/expecting parents, indvidually or with their young child. My work with young children indvidually is play based and skill buidling.

I am not a normal therapist. I am told that I am gifted at being very intuitive and perceptive so I catch on in a hurry and tend to give a lot of feedback rather than "uh huh and how do you feel about that?' .I am able to break things down into easy to understand language so clients better comprehend their personal issues and ways to heal and to better manage their lives.This is communicated with warmth,compassion,and a sense of humor.I am very active with my clients.

My blog is my calling card. Healing, positive change, and personal growth from the inside out is not for cowards. Read my blog to understand where I am coming from. Even if you believe you already know "everything" there is to understand about your specific circumstances, guess what? There is always another way to look at what you are struggling through. My job is to come up along side you and assist you in recognizing what you need to learn (and then do!)---as well as what you need to let go of (once and for all!). You will learn how to set yourself free from those chains that bind you. Live in peace, not in pieces anymore.

Everyone has a story to tell. Our experiences are what make us unique. Sometimes those experiences can be absolutely wonderful, but sometimes they can unexpectedly flip our world upside down and leave us feeling hopeless, lost, or alone. We may not be able to change the experiences from our past, however, through our work together, we can make sure that they do not define our future. I’m here to listen without judgement, offer support, and encourage self reflection. I provide a safe space to confront whatever it is that may be holding you back from living your life to the fullest.

Hi! I am a fully licensed professional counselor. I am also a woman, a mother, a partner and a person of color. I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field working with adolescents and adults. I am sensitive to, and work with millennials & Gen Z. As a millennial myself, I understand issues specific to what adolescents and young adults are going through. I also love to help people gain an understanding of their mental health issues ; as psychoeducation and proper tools are very important in the therapeutic process. I am very passionate about my work and the relationships I have with my clients. It is a privilege.

Asking for help can be incredibly difficult, but I'd like to help change that. For years, my personal mission has been to bring hope to those who are hurting. Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, trapped, helpless or lost after a loss? Or maybe you feel anxious, angry, ashamed, stressed, or depressed while navigating a difficult life transition. You don’t have to navigate these feelings alone. I have years of experience guiding people through grief and loss through individual therapy, facilitating support groups, developing bereavement programs, and speaking at seminars, trainings, and events throughout Southeastern Michigan.

Everyone deserves this chance to better themselves and relieve the burden that mental health issues can bring to our daily lives. There are many reasons people seek therapy. There could be feelings of nervousness or sadness, or an urge to finally get what's bothering you off your chest. No matter what it is, therapy brings out the best in you, and may surprise you. I've interacted with many clients who come in for one problem, and then discover hidden pieces of themselves.

Hello and thank you for visiting my profile page. My passion is helping people find and reclaim their inner strengths and abilities. All too often, therapy focuses on the negatives - i.e. what is going wrong with life. I believe it is just as important to figure out what is going right, and that is why we will work on two things: 1.) Lessening you or your child's suffering, and 2.) Building up self-esteem and self-reliance in the process.
