Female Therapists in Vine, Kalamazoo, MI

My name is Jeanne Klusman and I'm passionate about guiding adults, children, and teens on their unique paths to positive change. I believe that within each of us lies the potential to cultivate greater happiness, healthier relationships, and a more fulfilling life. I believe that you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. A few of the areas I can help you with are anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship issues, low self-esteem, stress management, life transitions, family conflict, and personal growth and development.

I provide a caring, confidential, nonjudgemental environment for adolescents and adults to explore issues of disordered eating, depression and life transitions including divorce, death and grief. In addition to my counseling profession, I am also a Registered Dietitian (RD), with an increased focus on food being used to soothe emotions. My interest is to help individuals using a whole person approach with empirically supported treatments to reach increased health, well being and simply to live their best life. Together we will explore obstacles to making changes and motivation.

Are you feeling stuck in your current situation and you just cannot find a way out? Have you gotten the message that you are unable to make your own decisions, or that you can't trust yourself? Have you experienced an unexpected life change but somehow feel broken and unsure/unable/unwilling to move forward? Do you find yourself feeling burnt out and at the same time feeling like you are constantly having to prove yourself and some how feeling like you aren't enough? If this is you... trust me, You're NOT Alone and there is help to get you feeling like you again!

I have been in private practice for 33 years having the privilege of serving individuals and couples in our community. I've gained a solid understanding of the struggles we face navigating the difficulties of life. My knowledge and compassion facilitate growth and healing for individuals within their selves and in their relationships. My style of therapy is one of warmth and engaging with each person in the story of their life and the difficulties within that. It is my intention to create an open and inviting atmosphere for people to explore themselves, their relationships, and the environment which they live.

With mindfulness- and compassion-based therapy, I support clients through grief & loss, relationship issues, healing from trauma, and searching for meaning & purpose. So many of the issues that bring people to therapy are natural responses to the challenges we face as human beings. Through the process of therapy, we bring curiosity and compassion to our inner experience; and in the safety of a non-judgmental space, we explore options for understanding and growth.

I specialize in OCD, anxiety, and perfectionism. People who come to me often feel anxious, misunderstood, and invalidated. They may have tried other types of therapy with limited results.
