Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Dearborn, MI

Hello, and welcome. My name is Jessica Banford, and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker / Clinical Social Worker with experience providing support in both emergency and outpatient mental health settings. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for change. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Indiana Wesleyan University and my professional background includes working in hospital emergency departments, where I have completed behavioral health assessments, crisis intervention, and care coordination for individuals experiencing acute mental health concerns. This experience has strengthened my ability to remain calm, supportive, and solution-focused during difficult moments. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, emotional dysregulation, and life stressors such as relationship difficulties, financial stress, and transitions. I also worked a outpatient community health center providing therapy to all populations including all ages. I also have experience supporting adolescents and young adults, as well as collaborating with families and support systems. My approach to therapy is client-centered and strengths-based. I often incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), focusing on building coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and increasing overall resilience. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported. I look forward to working together to help you reach your goals and improve your overall well-being.

My name is Rachel , and I am a Licensed Clinical Master Social Worker (LCMSW). I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Michigan State University and a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of South Carolina. I have worked as an outpatient therapist, behavioral health consultant, and life skills coach. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, autism, self-esteem, family and couples therapy, and particularly mental health support during pregnancy and postpartum.

I spent 20 years working toward this moment, and I bring that same patience and care to everyone I work with. My background spans family nursing, somatic psychology, and psychiatric care across settings from detox units to community mental health. I specialize in supporting adults through substance use and alcohol recovery, depression, PTSD, and trauma, including people whose mental health has been shaped by chronic pain or physical hardship. My approach is collaborative and unhurried. You set the pace, and we build from there.

I've been a therapist since 2015 and have worked with all kinds of people, from those facing homelessness in Detroit to curious five-year-olds learning about their feelings. I’m trained in Gottman Couples Therapy, have training in infertility mental health both in the US and abroad, and am working toward a perinatal mental health certification. I like to mix proven methods with warmth and a good sense of humor, so you'll always feel at ease. Helping you find your own strength and grow is what inspires me, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
