Therapists in Northville, MI

One of the most rewarding aspects of therapy is the opportunity it provides for personal growth—in your feelings, behaviors, and self-understanding. The therapeutic relationship can be a powerful catalyst for the changes that foster your development as an individual. I am committed to providing an empathetic and safe space where you can openly explore and bring to light aspects of yourself that might be easier to keep hidden. We all have unique experiences in life, yet the emotions they leave behind are universally felt and understood. Growth and understanding are absolutely within your reach, and it all starts with you.

Everyone’s journey is unique. What works for one person might not necessarily work for you. As someone with a passion for art, I use creativity and originality to guide the process to improve your emotional health through self-expression, no matter where you are in life. With over 6-years of experience as a Clinical Social Worker in outpatient therapy, medical settings, and community mental health, I have worked with many populations from various walks of life, including: children, adolescents, families, adults and older adults. I received my Bachelor of Arts Psychology and my Master of Social Work, both from Wayne State University

I am not a normal therapist. I am told that I am gifted at being very intuitive and perceptive so I catch on in a hurry and tend to give a lot of feedback rather than "uh huh and how do you feel about that?' .I am able to break things down into easy to understand language so clients better comprehend their personal issues and ways to heal and to better manage their lives.This is communicated with warmth,compassion,and a sense of humor.I am very active with my clients.

I view my work with people as a partnership with the goal of assisting them in discovering how they can use their greatest qualities to overcome personal difficulties, so they can live a more peaceful and fulfilling life. I was initially trained to work with those who suffer with addiction to alcohol and drugs. I have worked in several inpatient drug treatment programs and intensive outpatient drug treatment programs.

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 have 20+ years of outpatient therapeutic intervention experience with helping people change themselves for the better. I use specific, short-term, solution-focused treatment techniques based on insight and behavioral change. I work with a wide range of presenting problems and mood disorders including depression / grief, anxiety/phobias, anger management, adjustment, bipolar and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I focus on rapport and utilization of a client's strengths as a therapeutic foundation. Most insurance plans are accepted at my clinic and an on-staff psychiatrist is available to provide medication if needed.

Please Stop Talking! Have you thought this about your past therapist? Have you wondered how they could try and help you when they did not stop long enough to get to know you? As a Clinical Psychologist in practice for 30 years, I have heard this complaint more than any other among my patients whom have previously been in psychotherapy. In my clinical practice I respect the patient as the expert on themselves and will work with you to bring out the insight, esteem, knowledge and coping strategies you had inside or were open to learning about.

Throughout our existence, we all move through times that can bring an enormous amount of sadness, anxiety and disturbance. Perhaps the days add up, and we end up living much of our lives in this suffering. If we hold on and search, it is that deep self inside, the one just beneath the everyday routine, who can not only find the motivation to talk about these pains, but the inspiration to transform them into healing, meaning and purpose. When we take the lens and zoom in, every single one of us can find passion and vision. Joy and strength.

Facing challenges is inevitable in life, but that doesn't mean those challenges have to be faced alone. As a therapist, I have a genuine interest in understanding your story in a deep & meaningful way. With time, we can work together to help you develop a stronger sense of self & agency as we learn about your patterns of emotions, thoughts & beliefs through treatment.

Are you stuck on a hamster wheel? Feeling like you can't get off? We often get trapped in faulty mindsets that limit our perspectives and impair our ability to thrive. But maintaining those mindsets is a choice. Contrary to popular belief, maintaining the status quo - not therapy - is the easy way out. Healing is possible and achievable, but only if you are willing to bring your hurts, longings and dreams to the light.

I am not currently accepting new clients. However I have a team of Masters and Doctorate level students with immediate availability who offer sessions for $25. They come from the top psychology programs in the area and are supervised by myself. Call now to get an appointment scheduled!

My ideal client would be any person looking for help in whatever capacity they need it. I began my career running group therapy sessions for all age groups and a wide array of populations dealing with diverse presenting problems ranging from substance abuse and trauma to personality and eating disorders. My background in psychotherapy, neuropsychology, and applied behavioral analysis provides clients with a strong foundation of skills and a great ability to adapt to each client’s specific needs.

If you are someone who is experiencing anxiety, depression, symptoms of trauma, lack of motivation, feelings of hopelessness or isolation, lack of purpose, problems in your relationship or some other life issue I may be able to help. We can work together using evidence-supported treatments such as EMDR, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and mindfulness based approaches to create the changes that you want to see in your life.

Life is unexpected and full of unknowns. Familial, relational, and societal (among others) pressures are demanding and seem like they will never end. This is stressful and may cause you to feel depressed, overwhelmed, anxious, and negative about your past, present, and future. You may feel like you have nobody to turn to or to ask for help. Do you feel like you're carrying a burden, beating yourself up, or overthinking?

My focus is guiding clients to a fulfilling life. At A Better Future, we improve mental well-being. Addressing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and self-esteem struggles in relationships is daunting. We promote personal growth by confronting emotions like anger, shame, guilt, and insecurity. Embracing this chance to alleviate psychological distress is crucial for transformative change. Effective coping and addressing challenges cultivate resilience, fostering healthier relationships and self-worth. I aim to provide insight into masculine perspectives, sparking positive transformation.

You are ready to grow, but looking for a companion or guide on the journey. You want to leave the pain behind and make a change. Deep down, you know incredible things are possible for you! Whether you deal with occasional anxiety, chronic struggles, or you feel completely stuck, I'm here to partner with you on your healing journey. You don't have to know all the how's (I'm here to help with that), all I ask is you take the risk that its possible to redesign your life. My clients are ready to do what it takes to change their lives - challenge their assumptions, grow their worth, explore their potential, and leave the pain behind.

Life is predictably unpredictable. Despite this, adapting to challenges may not always feel familiar or simple. Feeling understood and accepted is a powerful aspect to dealing with change, but not always available or prevalent. My goal is to provide support and tools while navigating through a variety of struggles and challenges. I strive to provide a holistic therapeutic approach that best fits each individual I work with.
