Adults Therapists in Byron Center, MI

My ideal client is one that is their authentic self in sessions. I find that when a client is open and honest about who they are and what they struggle with they are also more successful at achieving their goals. I typically see teens and adults who struggle with things like: anxiety, OCD, depression, perfectionism, fear of failure, grief, trauma, and life transitions. I find that most clients want to be heard, understood and validated.

Clients have expressed that my positivity and humor, mixed with realism and accountability, are helpful in the therapy process. Together we will build an authentic connection, get to the core of recurring problems, and heal from life events. One of my favorite quotes is, “No one knows you better than yourself”. Even so, at times we struggle to heal and make changes on our own. Sometimes we need help evaluating our relationships and experiences from a new perspective.

Hi, I’m Naomi Grimm, LLPC, a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor, and I'm currently accepting new clients, so, for the time being anyway, there's no waiting to get in to see me. I completed my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Liberty University and my undergrad in Psychology at Cornerstone University. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults in treating anxiety, depression, parent/child relationships and grief. You're the only person who can fully know and write your story. I'm here to provide a place and a process for you to explore what’s within, and experience greater peace and wellbeing.

Life can be described as a beautiful gift, and it is also true that life can present us with circumstances that seem unfair and insufferable. When this occurs, we could benefit from support that enables us to develop self-awareness, obtain clarity, identify choices, accept accountability, foster growth, learn skills, build resilience, pursue freedom, and feel heard, seen, accepted, and encouraged as we navigate our reality. Asking for help is challenging for many reasons, but being receptive to help can bring about a multitude of blessings. I would love to serve as a source of hope and optimism during your therapeutic experience.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, or stress reactions trying to manage everything? Do you have a hard time making a decision and following through? Do you want to improve your interpersonal communication skills? Are you adjusting to health changes? I can help you by creating a safe, supportive environment to aide you in self exploration, self care, and personal and professional goal setting. I understand that work life balance, career issues, and adjustment to health concerns can be overwhelming.

Sometimes we all need to find extra connection and support. Whether it be new or chronic symptoms of anxiety or depression, challenges from your past, or you are seeking counseling for extra self-care, I would be honored to be your supportive connection. Together we can work to identify goals that are meaningful for you and promote wellness in your life. In a session with me, my goal is to make you feel welcome, seen, and heard. My therapy style is person-centered, and I will always approach our connection with empathy and respect.

Hello there, I'm Rosette Nsenga-Molin, a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor (LLPC) I specialize in working with children, teens and adults who are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, eating disorders, behavior modification, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and major life changes.

I have served in multiple capacities including community mental health and counseling & testing centers.

My ideal client would be someone looking for balance in their life. At times life can be difficult, lonely and/or confusing, we are not meant to do this alone.

Hi, I’m Nate Apel, LLPC, a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor, and I'm currently accepting new clients, so, for the time being anyway, there's no waiting to get in to see me. I specialize in working with children, youth, adults, families, and couples, and I look forward to helping you, and those in your care, achieve a greater sense of calm and wellbeing. I completed my Master’s in Counseling, and my Bachelors in Family Life Education from Spring Arbor University, and I bring 15 years of clinical and life experience working with youth, families and adults in schools, churches, and private practice.

Experience with self and other harm, sexual issues, and depression/anxiety. I also help many straight and gay adults with mood, relationship, social (Aspergers/Higher Autism), and self-worth challenges.

Do your fears and worries keep you from doing what you want to do or what you need to do? Do you feel misunderstood, ashamed, lonely, worthless, hopeless? Would you like to wake up in the morning and not be overwhelmed with worry or dread or low self-worth? Anxiety and depression can hijack our feelings, thoughts, and actions. Together, we can identify ways to cope with these feelings and thoughts so that you can live a fulfilling and meaningful life.

I am a fully licensed psychologist who specializes in providing assessment services for adults, adolescents, and children. The path to self-understanding can be a challenging one. My goal through testing is to provide a safe place for individuals to gain insight into their behaviors, personality, and mental health concerns. These assessments typically examine the person's history, behavioral observations, and test results to provide appropriate diagnosis and treatment recommendations. I am well versed with psychological testing with diagnosis of attention issues and differential diagnosis for clinical syndromes.

I hold a strong passion working with kids, teenagers, and young adults(7-23) to discuss challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and overall life stressors. My ideal client is a child or teen with anxiety. My goal is to support and provide you with tools to overcome the challenges life throws at you.

My primary goal in therapy is to create a nonjudgmental, safe space for expressing feelings and emotions. I am deeply committed to helping children aged 8 and older with issues related to school, peers, anxiety, executive functioning, and self-esteem. Additionally, I enjoy supporting young adults as they navigate life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My approach is warm and compassionate, focusing on engaging children creatively to foster enthusiasm and interest in their therapeutic journey.

My ideal client would be age 12 or older and be seeking an ADHD diagnosis or treatment. I am currently accepting referrals for ADHD testing for children, teens, and young adults. This can be done in person or virtually. I do accept insurance and self-pay for ADHD testing. I utilize the FDA-cleared QBcheck for computerized ADHD testing.

I enjoy clients with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and problems. My personal style is supportive, and my approach with clients is holistic in focus I want to see clients the best version of themselves that they can possibly be . My goal is for each client to achieve more personal awareness, emotional stability, and effective behavior as a result of our work together. Presenting issues might be: Depression; Bipolar disorder; Anxiety Disorders; Trauma/PTSD; Stress related medical problems; or Life transitions. I provide individual therapy for older children, teens, and adults.

As your therapist, I want your experience with me to be inviting, warm, engaging and productive. I deeply value trust, safety, and connection when we work together. I am here to help you to figure out what you want and need, to help you grow your awareness and sort out your most difficult feelings, and to help you gain insight into the reasons you do what you do - all to equip you for the changes you desire. Allow me to come alongside you as we walk toward the life you want to live.

***In-Person Appointments*** The most expensive kind of therapy is the kind that doesn't work. Maybe it feels scary to wonder if real healing can happen. I'm a Certified EMDR Therapist and I combine EMDR with IFS therapy to create an effective method that has worked for permanent healing time and again. Instead of feeling bad about certain parts of ourselves, I encourage people to instead get curious and compassionate toward these "parts of themselves" that are trying to keep them safe and help them by making them anxious, angry, or even depressed.(Sounds strange, right?) We slow things down and get to know you, one part at a time.

At some point in life, everyone gets stuck. Stuck in a difficult relationship, in depression or anxiety, on an unfulfilling or stalled career path, or maybe stuck on a past wound or trauma.
