Therapists in White Lake, MI

KindMind Counseling is an outpatient mental health (therapy) practice in Clarkston, Michigan treating patients struggling with a diverse range of mental health concerns. Our mission is to alleviate the mental health epidemic by bringing greater mental healthcare access to a community that is so critically underserved, while also taking a progressive position to bring an end to the negative stigma that has, without justification, plagued mental healthcare for so long.

I know how scary it can be to start therapy and talk through your worries and struggles, but I believe challenging ourselves to step outside of our comfort zone can create positive changes in our lives! I promise to create a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment where you feel heard and safe. My goal is to promote unconditional positive regard, genuineness, and mutual respect with all of my clients. I believe everyone has their own story, struggles, and goals - there is no "one size fits all" when it comes to counseling approaches. Together, we can explore your needs and tailor approaches specific to you.

I believe that therapy is a mutual relationship, a partnership involving mutual respect and empathetic understanding. Counseling should be more than just a method of solving a problem or achieving a goal - it should provide a way of opening us up to an awareness of ourselves - facilitating personal growth and development of character. I will not presume to know all of the answers and I don't believe in quick fixes. I promise to work with you side-by-side as you gain new insight and understanding in overcoming past and present events; obtaining knowledge and resources that will equip you in moving forward. We are in this together.

In my practice, I believe that therapy should be driven by the individual. I work to empower individuals to create the change they want to see in their lives, promote healing, and acceptance of themselves. I believe the most important indicator of success is a trusting and supportive relationship with the therapist. My role in the therapeutic process is to guide my clients towards their highest potential, while also collaborating with them in every aspect of our work. Because everyone has unique strengths and barriers, my therapy style is open, flexible, and tailored to meet the specific goals of each client.

I am a Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience, and also an EMDR* certified therapist. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families from all backgrounds and sexual orientations using a strength based approach. My clients often describe me as the therapist who provides them with real tools to use outside of sessions to help them overcome panic attacks, anxiety, and depression. My expertise includes adults and adolescents presenting with PTSD, the full anxiety spectrum, depression, health issues, and more. I am a trained Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and was educated in Psychodynamic Theory.

When it comes to everyday life, we all can agree that it can be a never ending climb to our desirable selves. It is within these times when life becomes uncertain; thus influencing our decisions in a negative way. As a mental health therapist, I get the privilege to extend a helping hand to those who are tired of being tired. Individuals who want a change, but are unsure how or where to start. With this in mind, I desire to connect with these individuals, in order to take back control of their lives - one day at a time.

The truth is we are living in intense times that contribute towards discord and dysfunction. As such, you may find yourself on a journey not of your own choosing; and, often during these times, you could stumble upon a place called uncertainty. Basically, this is a place of being stuck at a crossroad, not knowing which direction to take that will produce the results you desire. Or, perhaps you have made some decisions that have resulted in negative consequences and the solutions seem improbable. In essence, no matter the contributing factors to where you are today, CHANGE is still possible, and HEALING is still obtainable!
