Therapists in Southfield, MI

**NOW OFFERING EMDR for TEENS and ADULTS** I see clients with varying concerns; depression, anxiety, sadness, high stress, trauma, and the list goes on.

Taking a trauma-informed and resilience-building approach, we work with the body and mind to transform hurt to healing.

Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed, exhausted, or tightly wound when facing the stress of everyday life?
