Female Therapists in Mattawan, MI

Hello! Thank you for stopping by. I am a Social Worker and therapist with 20 years experience in the mental health field. What sets me apart though? I have a very passionate, upbeat personality that shines through in my practice. I work hard to help my clients see the strength they already have within and that I am just a facilitator to help them achieve any goal they set forth for themselves. I am honest and "real". I would be happy to chat with you about your goals and how we can work to achieve them together!

Each of us has our own learned ways of coping or dealing with stressors, however sometimes the stress can become so overwhelming that we are no longer effective with our methods. This is a time when we should reach out for extra support to get things back on track. I would be honored to help you “regroup”, “refocus on priorities” and “set attainable goals”. My therapeutic approach is primarily both strength-based and interpersonal. I will meet you where you are on this path to wellness and help guide you in the direction you want to be. Start your journey today.

Life is not easy. We will have issues. There are answers, but not always ones we want to hear. I am unique because I come from a christian perspective. You are free to disagree with me. I will not be offended. I promise to be compassionate and honest.

Finding the right person to talk to and connect with can be stressful, but it should be easy. My goal is to help you reach your goals in a comfortable, warm, and supportive environment; free from judgment and personal agendas. I'm a very real person, and encourage you to be your authentic self, F bombs and all! It's important for us to have a collaborative relationship where you feel free to share your thoughts, feelings, and opinions and make the changes that will improve your life. I am passionate about what I do, and look forward to helping you to free yourself from personal conflicts and stressors. Email for a quicker response.

I specialize in relationships, with problems including trust issues, communication problems, infidelity, or other problems that occur within a relationship. I also specialize in anxiety and depression related to trauma. I graduated from Arizona State with a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2009 and am also trained in Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I work with couples, families, children, adolescents, elderly and individuals with diverse backgrounds. I believe therapy is a collective and transforming process in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

I currently only have openings before 2:00pm. I believe counseling can bring you a greater understanding and acceptance of yourself. Counseling provides you with an opportunity for self-growth and development. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment in which you can explore the issues that are holding you back from being your best self.I have experience working with individuals struggling with a wide range of issues such as, self-esteem issues, emotional control, relational problems, anxiety, parenting, depression, and trauma.

Has your adolescent been experiencing overwhelming sadness? Does your teen feel worried a lot? Are these worries negatively impacting your child's relationships and academic performance? Have recent or ongoing stressors decreased your child's ability to cope with or adjust to change? You want hope and healing for your child so they can feel normal again. You want your teen to find relief from the constant worrying. You want your child to be successful at adapting to change. You have found the place your child needs to be to improve their life.

Hello and welcome! I am a doctorate level clinical psychologist specializing in adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. A highly-sensitive person (HSP) and empath myself, I am enthusiastic to work with clients who share these ‘superpowers’ which at times can feel burdensome. Beyond symptom relief, I seek to uncover your “origin story" as this promotes longer-lasting outcomes as well as opportunities for healing and self-discovery. My ongoing commitment to my own personal growth and therapy distinguishes me from other therapists, resulting in an elevated therapy experience and overall quality of care.

I am a Solution Focused, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapist, which concentrates on problem solving rather than the situation itself. I create an environment that fosters the feeling that you have an advocate who helps you navigate through situations, which may be difficult. I love being a therapist and that comes through by demonstrating a genuine concern with the issues you bring forth. I am committed to engaging in meaningful dialogue with you in order to recognize and help foster an understanding of your struggles, needs, and personal goals. I will also strive to enable you to find strategies to cope with and resolve any issues.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, confused, and/or unsure? As a licensed clinical therapist I can help you address these feelings by using a variety of therapeutic methods to help you gain an understanding of the root cause of your concerns, develop healthy coping techniques, & enhance overall mental health. I specialize in working with children and adults who experienced trauma, struggle with anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, trouble concentrating, irritability, anger, substance use issues or overall life dissatisfaction.

Life's challenges can become overwhelming and we can feel anxious, hopeless, depressed, and simply stuck.

I have more than eighteen (18) years of experience, working with children and adolescents struggling in school. I have helped numerous children and adolescents who suffer from severe behavior issues. My passion is helping a child learn the skills that they need to communicate and get along more effectively with others. I believe with the right tools any child can be more successful in school and their community. I enjoy helping children learn to better control their emotions and improve relationships within their families.

All of us will have times in our lives when we meet challenges that are difficult to deal with alone. During these times, therapists can provide the support and guidance that we need to identify our strengths and resources and learn new ways to deal with our problems.

As an LMSW with several years of experience, I have developed a balanced, relationship-driven, and creative approach to working with individuals and families from diverse populations. I have extensive experience working with children, adults, and families with various concerns including mood disorders, eating disorders, ADHD, and dual diagnosis. While I do not subscribe to any one modality of treatment, I have training and experience in utilizing Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), expressive arts therapies, and holistic approaches.

I strive to help people achieve their goals, whatever they might be. I provide a caring, comfortable, and safe environment where we can work together. I want people to be able to share their thoughts, feelings, and ideas and work diligently to create the setting that supports that. I hope to provide people with the resources and information necessary for them to make changes and improve their life. I am very passionate about my work and look forward to the opportunity of helping people with their struggles and difficulties. My ultimate goal is to help people lead healthy, productive, and fulfilling lives.

Taking the first step towards therapy is often the most difficult. I strive to create a safe and comfortable atmosphere in which to build a caring and collaborative therapeutic relationship where the client and the therapist work as a team. In working with my clients, I practice a strength-based approach where helping my clients with wellness, self-growth, and exploration is vital and foremost. I am particularly interested in trying to help clients feel more like the authors of their own lives, so that they can achieve what they hope for in all areas of their life.

Hello and welcome! I’m Katherine, but please feel free to call me Kate. I’m the founder of Monarch Therapy LLC and a Clinical Social Worker specializing in trauma. My approach is rooted in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), and I primarily work with individuals aged 16 and older, though I do accept younger adolescents on a case-by-case basis. At Monarch Therapy, I tailor my treatment to each client's unique needs and preferences, often incorporating TF-CBT, mindfulness and aspects of Internal Family Systems (IFS) as well as incorporating therapeutic games and art as needed for younger clients.

The L.E.A.D. therapeutic approach is based on four components: Love, Empathy, Awareness, and Direction. This is the foundation of my practice and how I engage with people to cultivate permanent changes in their lives. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my calling is to facilitate change through loving people as Jesus did, sitting with people in their pain and confusion, cultivating awareness and supporting Godly direction.

I strive to provide an atmosphere in which the clients that I work with feel safe, validated, and empowered to make necessary changes in their lives. With combining both the head (logical side) and the heart (emotional side), my approach to counseling begins and ends with hope. Hope that you can find closure from the past. Hope that you can embrace the present moment, even with all the messiness that life throws at us. And lastly, the hope that a better future is possible. I look forward to assisting you in your counseling journey.
