Alcohol Use Therapists in Madison Heights, MI

I am a licensed psychologist and the clinical director of Sollars and Associates Integrative Counseling and Psychological Services. I have been providing counseling and psychotherapy for over 30 years in the Metro Detroit area and our group practice spans across the state of Michigan. With support, encouragement, and expert insight many people begin to feel better after their first session. Our therapists possess a great deal of experience in evaluating and working with children, adolescents, and families dealing with a variety of issues.

I specialize in life transitions, and everything that comes with them, throughout childhood, adolescents, and young adulthood. This includes depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief and loss, anger, and substance misuse. I also have a breadth of experience working with individuals with disabilities. I provide individual and family therapy. I see clients aged 5 and up.

While I am full, we have other therapists within the practice who have some availability. Sometimes life throws challenges at us and it is hard to know how to keep moving forward. I see myself as a collaborator in the messiness of life, coming alongside you to help maneuver through challenges and obstacles. I meet you exactly where you are, serving as a supportive person that helps you identify and accomplish your goals. I treat each client as a unique person and do not employ a one size fits all approach. I am direct and non-judgmental and see an equal amount of individuals and couples/groups.

I enjoy helping clients walk through their past to help them learn how to enjoy the present while creating a great future by changing their thinking to better influence their actions and feelings. I have experience working with those in the criminal justice system. I also have experience working with domestic violence batterers and survivors. Those experiencing depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and anger management problems will feel comfortable sharing their experience.

I believe that the process a perspective client goes through to not only identify the right therapist for them, but also develop a therapeutic relationship, is daunting and difficult. Because of this, I strive to provide a psycho-therapeutic environment that is uniquely collaborative. My approach to psychotherapy reflects the individuality of the client, and also provides an opportunity to identify core difficulties, discover a means of overcoming them, and work towards a deeper self-understanding. I focus on depression, anxiety, trauma resolution, anger, substance abuse, family discord, job stress, and problems of adolescence.

Do you worry that you have a substance abuse or gambling problem? Are you a man do you struggle with balancing work, family and personal life. Do you feel alone and unheard? Societal expectations can discourage men from expressing emotions, leading to bottled-up feelings causing communication problems especially in relationships. Drawing from my background in criminal justice as a probation officer I bring a wealth of experience to our sessions around domestic violence, addictions and other legal issues.
