You’ve been through enough. Now it’s time to rediscover the person you were always meant to be. I believe true healing begins when we care for the whole person—not just the problem. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. I work with individuals who are ready to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. Clients may seek counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, or feeling stuck and uncertain about their next steps. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I’m here to meet you where you are, listen with intention, and support you as you work toward healing, growth, and wellness. When you’re ready, I invite you to take that first step toward healing and positive change.

Something often gets lost between what you're carrying and how you talk about it. For clients who find it easier in Spanish, or who want a therapist who works with mind and body together, that gap can feel especially wide. I'm Roxanna, a bilingual (Spanish/English) social worker in Michigan with an integrative, eclectic approach. I work with children, teens, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, relationship strain, cultural and identity pressures, and more. Whether you speak English, Spanish, or move between both, all of you is welcome here. I would love to be that space.

Hi! My name is Helen Roberts, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa. I’ve been counseling children, teens, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years - but in my experience, that’s not really what you want to know. What you really want to know is, can I help you? And is there hope for things to change for you? As a matter of fact, there is, and I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to take that journey towards healing and empowerment with you. We can change the direction of your life right now and give you hope and power again!

You might look like you have it together, but internally you’re overthinking everything, overgiving in relationships, and second-guessing yourself constantly. Many of my clients learned early on to prioritize others’ emotions, and now feel stuck, anxious, or unsure of what they actually want. I help you understand these patterns and break out of them so you can feel more confident, grounded, and clear in your relationships.

Happy patient looking away

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.
