Male Therapists in Hazel Park, MI

I work well with people who are experiencing emotional or psychological distress and are motivated to overcome their challenges. You may be struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, or trauma. You want a therapist who can understand your feelings and provide a safe, non-judgmental environment for you to express your thoughts and emotions. I am here to provide the type of care that you are seeking.

The decision to begin seeking therapy can be a challenging one. It's not always easy, the idea of opening yourself up to a new person in such a vulnerable way, so kudo's for even being on this website right now. I encourage all potential clients to reach out to have that initial conversation. Finding the right therapist can be a bit of a process and the only way to start figuring out if someone might be a good fit is to have a chat. And if it's not, that's totally okay, let's find you someone who is. Everyone deserves to have the best support possible.

I provide a welcoming, safe and non-judgmental space. I work with people who seek support for anxiety, depression, grief, loss, trauma, relationships, family issues, social challenges, identity, substance use, life balance, and life transitions/stressors. I support people with areas such as work, school, productivity, immigration, illness and self-care. I have experience working with, and welcome, people of different sexual orientations, gender identities, race, spirituality, and cultural backgrounds. I also have experience working with social workers and therapists.

I aim to provide a supportive environment in which lasting life changes are made with a greater sense of meaning, purpose, and overall well-being. I specialize in helping individuals overcome behavioral, emotional, and relationship patterns that often result in anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma, substance use, low self esteem etc. As a result of therapy, you will have increased self awareness, make better choices for yourself, and develop healthier, more balanced relationships.

Our emotional landscapes are frequently influenced by past experiences, challenges, or traumas. Inner struggles might manifest as anxiety or depression. Perhaps it's simply a sense that something isn't quite right. Addressing challenging emotions or experiences can lead to healthier coping mechanisms. One's personal history often shapes their present emotional state. By navigating painful experiences from the past and present, individuals can develop resilience.

Throughout my professional career, I have been most described as relatable, genuine, compassionate, and encouraging. After retiring from 25 years of law enforcement service, my compassion for all people led me to become a Licensed Professional Counselor. My interactions with others have taught me that there is a story or set of circumstances behind every situation. My goal is to create an environment where you feel safe to disclose and discuss your personal challenges without the fear of judgement, ridicule, or embarrassment. My team of public safety insiders and I also have a keen understanding of the public safety culture.

Not getting enough out of life? Having a hard time seeing beyond the troubles? Are you stuck in some bad patterns? As lonely as it seems, you are not the only one...Everyone has struggles...And some people have the courage to face them as well. Therapy has helped a lot of people.

Even though one of my passions is working with college aged individuals, my ideal client is any adult looking to work on and better themselves. When you are open and honest about needing help and playing an active role in your mental health journey that is when real progress can occur. Anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship issues are my areas of specialty. Anyone dealing with these issues can feel very alone and misunderstood. But they don't have to, because that is where therapy comes into play. Being validated, heard, and supported through these difficult times can make the biggest impact they may need.

Hey, I'm Steve. If you are reading this, maybe it is because you are feeling lost, stressed out, or overwhelmed. Maybe you feel shutdown, and you can’t remember the last time you were really happy. Whatever it is, I'd like to hear about it. I've been there too, and it doesn't have to be this hard. I have watched hundreds of people transform their lives through the therapy process. It is possible for everyone to heal, grow, and have hope for the future.

The Brain Training Center specializes in helping children and adults with ADD ADHD, impulse and focus issues. We are now doing biofeedback and neurobiofeedback remotely. We can do this by training you in your own home. It is easier than you would think once an initial intake is done. We also can assess (diagnose) if you suspect your child may have ADD or ADHD . We "train the brain"" to help get at the underlying problem, not just treat the symptom (as medications do). My website is www.trainyourbraincenter.com for more information. We can accept insurance even for remote training.

Thank you for visiting my page. I have been providing counseling services to individuals and families for over 10 years. My expertise includes working with adolescents on personal growth and positive mental health. I also offers individual and group sessions for teens on issues such as life planning, anger management, college counseling and communication skills. When working with adult clients, we generally focus on grief/depression, family relationships, divorce, careers as well as parenting issues.

I don't believe in having an "ideal client," but rather subscribe to Irvin Yalom's idea that the client/clinician relationship is one of "fellow travelers." Therefore, I view it as my responsibility to meet the client where they are in order to begin a journey in which their needs and strengths indicate the direction of therapy. I create a space in which my diverse client-base is inspired to be as truthful and expressive as possible and in which we can begin to pay attention to the client's deepest voice. Moving toward feeling and through repression is crucial to my work, and I believe lasting growth begins here.

As a licensed clinical social worker with extensive experience in outpatient care, crisis intervention, and college counseling, I am dedicated to supporting individuals and couples through life’s challenges. I specialize in helping adolescents and adults navigate addiction, chronic pain, burnout and high stress careers, relationship issues, sexuality and sexual health, trauma, anxiety, OCD and depression. My compassionate style ensures a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore and heal.

I am ready and willing to work with anyone who feels that they might need help regaining daily life functioning skills, coping with anxiety and depression, social and professional development, weight-loss coaching, parental coaching, and any other issues that may arise as we work together. The populations I served have primarily been older adolescents and young adults. Along with that, I have experience with children as young as nine years old and older adults. I have a strong interest in sports and performance psychology, but I am not limited to that particular practice area.

I take a mindfulness based holistic approach. As a former Division 1 athlete, I enjoy working with athletes who are looking for a competitive edge on and off the field. With adequate systems and support in place, you can and will thrive!
