I’m a licensed therapist and founder of a private practice built around helping people create meaningful, lasting change, not just short-term relief. My background includes working with teen and adult women navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and deeply ingrained behavioral and emotional patterns.
My work is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), with a strong emphasis on understanding the biology and evolution of the human brain. I help clients make sense of how their nervous system, thoughts, and emotional responses were shaped—and how those patterns show up in daily life as habits that may no longer serve them.
I also integrate radical responsibility and mindful self-compassion into my work. That means we don’t stay stuck in blame or avoidance, but we also don’t approach change through shame. Instead, we build awareness, ownership, and the capacity to respond to yourself and your life differently.
While I’m direct and engaged in the work, I’m also laid back and less formal in my style. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and productive and have moments of lightness, humor, and real human connection along the way.
I work best with clients who are ready to look inward, challenge themselves, and actively participate in the process of change.
I am a clinical social worker and graduated from the University of Michigan School of Social Work where I focused on early childhood development and family practice. I have training in, child development, attachment theory, play therapy, mindfulness, infant and child-parent psychotherapy, perinatal and postpartum transitions, mind-body techniques, couples therapy and trauma-focused therapies.
Hi, my name is Lindsey Manza, and I provide therapeutic services for adolescents and young adults ages 13–26 who are experiencing challenges related to substance use. My clinical focus is group therapy, with an emphasis on supporting individuals as they explore patterns of substance use, increase insight into underlying factors, and develop healthier coping strategies.
I have worked with adolescents and adults for the past 35 years in various capacities. I believe it is my job as your therapist to walk with you on your healing journey. I believe in creating a safe place for clients to feel comfortable sharing their personal stories. I strive to honor my client's wisdom of self and their experience while also building a relationship of trust and understanding between therapist and client.
I'm a LPC with over 25 years in the field. I've helped people through a variety of issues. Whatever is motivating you to seek counseling, I’m here to help. Throughout my career I have seen how helpful & freeing it can be to have a safe & non-judgmental space to explore what you value. I bring warmth, compassion, humor, and insight into my work, and I try to help folks learn something new about themselves every session. This can mean the difference between just living and prospering as a person.
As a compassionate and experienced therapist, I specialize in working with children and teenagers to navigate the challenges of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I also work with neurodivergent children.
I use a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to each client's needs, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Play Therapy.
I am here to support you and your family on your journey to healing and growth.
Hi there! It's so nice to meet you.
I have been a therapist for 6 years and whether this is your first time trying therapy or not, it can feel difficult. Acknowledging you need help is one thing and seeking help is another so I'm glad you're here!
I partner with people experiencing depression, anxiety, addiction related coping and life transitions to identify and reach their goals. I am dedicated to serving the needs of the LGBTQ+ and broader community and am committed to creating a safe, accepting and supportive environment for those I partner with.
My goal is to help you build insight, strengthen coping skills, and create lasting change. Our work will focus on understanding your experiences and developing healthier ways to approach stress so it becomes something you can manage and grow from rather than something that holds you back.
Hi, I’m Reilly, a Licensed Master Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Therapy Unboxed.
I work with individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move through life with greater clarity.
Therapy offers space to slow down, understand the patterns shaping your experiences, and begin making meaningful changes.
I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from The University of Michigan and am currently completing advanced training in couples and sex therapy through Sexual Health Alliance.
Outside the therapy room, you can usually find me volunteering at a local animal shelter, binge-watching Law & Order, or spending time with my dog, Stevie.
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work that is passionate about supporting women, teens, and those who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, low self-esteem, and life stressors. Perhaps you who have not felt like yourself or have not found your voice due to everyone else having a say about your life choices. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel heard, understood, and genuinely supported. With nine years experience and through lived experience, my work focuses on helping you manage those concerns, as I have worked with multiple populations including children, teens, and adults.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Ann Arbor, MI
Searching for therapists in Ann Arbor starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Ann Arbor therapists may work with concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties and approach fit your needs. Profiles may mention therapy styles such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care, which can help you understand how each therapist works.
Ann Arbor is a smaller market, so nearby in-person therapy options may vary by neighborhood, schedule, and specialty. Virtual therapy with a Michigan-licensed therapist can expand your options while still giving you access to care from home. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Ann Arbor can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can verify your benefits and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Ann Arbor, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
