My name is Dr. Llena Carter. I am originally from the southside of Chicago. I have lived in four different states and traveled to over 40; including teaching/traveling abroad for multiple summers. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and have a breadth of experience. I see therapy as a sacred space where trust and nonjudgment are essential. I am specifically passionate about providing support for persons of color and oppressed populations where therapy may be otherwise stigmatized. I would be honored to walk, even a small part of your journey, with you.
In my 20-plus years of clinical experience, I have worked with individuals, families as well as with couples and groups. My experience has stemmed from a variety of settings including domestic violence shelters, psychiatric units, juvenile detention centers, college campuses and private practice. Consulting work has included Suicide Prevention, DEI trainings, Intergroup Dialogue, and Groups geared toward de-stigmatizing mental wellness for communities of color. All are welcome here.
I specialize in working with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, substance use, and co-occurring mental health concerns. Whether you're feeling stuck, struggling in relationships, coping with overwhelming emotions, or navigating recovery, I will meet you where you are and tailor treatment to your individual needs and goals.
As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS), and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC), I bring experience working with individuals facing complex mental health, substance use, and medical challenges across a variety of healthcare and behavioral health settings. I am passionate about helping people recognize their strengths, overcome obstacles, and create fulfilling, balanced lives.
I work with families, couples, and individuals ranging from ages 14 and up. I use a Strength Based Approach in session, helping you focus more on your personal strengths. Together you and I can build your treatment plan and discuss your goals. My goal is for you to become involved with making the treatment plan so the therapeutic process is successful for you. Throughout my graduate studies I have been trained in multiple therapeutic models.
Hi there! I'm a Clinical Social Worker based in Michigan. I have my master's degree in social work from Eastern Michigan University and I've been a practicing clinician since 2017. Most of my experience includes working with folks struggling with anxiety, depression, more severe mood disorders, and histories of trauma.
Hi y'all, I'm Malanna, rhymes with Madonna! I’m quite the unorthodox therapist, so I’ve been told, because I approach mental health with the same sincerity that we take with our physical health. I have a lot of respect and appreciation for the people who sit in front of me and trust me with their vulnerability. I'm big on cooperation; pairing your self-insights with my expertise. I'll do my best to help you highlight all of your hidden strengths, buried wins, and natural gifts that life can make us lose sight of! I currently offer telehealth services but I can guarantee it’ll be just as good as seeing me in person!
Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!

Frequently asked questions
Find the right couples therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Detroit, MI
Finding couples therapists in Detroit starts with naming what you and your partner want to work on together. That may include communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, parenting disagreements, or deciding what comes next in the relationship. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for a licensed marriage and family therapist or a therapist who lists couples counseling, marriage counseling, the Gottman Method, or emotionally focused therapy in their profile.
In Detroit, finding one therapist who fits both partners can take a few practical steps. Consider whether an office location is easy to reach from home or work, whether virtual sessions fit your shared schedule, and whether the therapist offers times that work for both of you. Provider bios can help you understand how a therapist structures couples therapy, how they describe their communication style, and whether they offer a brief consultation to assess fit before the first session.
Couples therapy in Detroit can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, review detailed bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
