Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


Hi, I’m Morgan. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in relationships and women's health. I work with individuals navigating the emotional and relational changes that can arise during pregnancy, postpartum, parenthood, and perimenopause/menopause. Many of the individuals that I support are adjusting to identity shifts, new stressors, and unexpected anxiety and depression. Individuals often find themselves struggling to manage relationship strain, are experiencing communication challenges, and are feeling a sense of overwhelm as roles and expectations change.

Hi! I am Chardae Korhonen (She/Her) a licensed clinical social worker and relational therapist.

If you are reading this, I can imagine something in your life isn’t feeling quite right. Maybe you feel stuck or feel disconnected from yourself and the life you want to be living. Maybe you’re navigating hormonal changes—whether that’s PMS/PMDD, perimenopause, or menopause—working through the impact of trauma, navigating relationship challenges or simply exhausted from feeling like you’re constantly surviving instead of actually living.

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.

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

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.
