Hello! My name is Sherie Posie. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Michigan. I'm a graduateof the University of Detroit Mercy with Master of Arts in Community Mental Health Counseling. I have over 15 years of experience working in the fields of Mental Health, Psychology, Counseling and Human Services. I see both adolecents and adults in my practice. I offer both in person and telehealth counseling.

I’m Rasha, a licensed therapist with over eight years of experience in mental health, public health, and program leadership. My background includes working with adolescents, adults, and families across school-based, community, and clinical settings. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, and concerns related to racial and ethnic identity.
My work is grounded in both clinical expertise and real-world understanding of how systemic stressors, culture, and environment impact mental health. I have extensive experience helping clients who appear high-functioning externally but feel overwhelmed, emotionally taxed, or disconnected internally.
Clients should know that I am direct, thoughtful, and deeply invested in meaningful growth. I will support you — but I will also challenge you when necessary. Therapy with me is not passive; it is intentional, reflective, and focused on helping you build sustainable change.
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've built my career around sitting with people through some of life's hardest moments — it's work I still find deeply meaningful. I'm Susan, a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with an MSW from the University of Michigan, offering telehealth therapy to adolescents, adults, and seniors throughout Michigan. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief, bipolar disorder, borderline personality, and more — bringing a strengths-based lens to every session.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have 5 years of experience as a School Social Worker. I graduated from Indiana University Northwest in 2021 with my master's degree. I am a therapist who believes people are stronger than they give themselves credit for. My passion is helping you find your strength and strategies to meet your goals. I keep things warm, supportive, and will never make you feel judged for what you bring to me. I am here to support you and help you navigate to where you want to be.
Outside of work, I run a small farm with pigs, goats, chickens, dogs, cats, and a garden, so my life involves a fair amount of dirt and a lot of animals with strong opinions. I also love to fish, woodwork, cook from scratch, and make soy candles. Being in nature is how I reset, and I am happy to talk about what helps you reset too.
I am a seasoned professional who has worked in various settings within Healthcare including crisis intervention and chronic conditions such as Cancer.
In my approach to counseling, I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as the main approaches to counseling. It is important that each client's needs are met through their counseling experience, therefore, counseling is not limited to the above approaches. Biblical principles are also used as an approach to counseling. Counseling will be provided to a diverse population of individuals. Optimum health and healing is possible if you are willing to do the work! Be Willing!
Hello, I am Dr. Cheri Anderson and I want to share with you my educational background, specialized training, treatment areas and populations served.

Dr. Anderson teachs both graduate and undergraduate students. Dr. Anderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor and International Certified Gambling Counselor and a Certified Tech Addiction and Digital Helth Specialist. Dr. Anderson has specialized training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am trained to identify and treat Survivors of Human Trafficking.

Dr. Anderson serve: teenagers, adults, senior citizens, individuals and couples.
I have been doing this work since 2009 — which means I have sat with a lot of people through a lot of different kinds of hard. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling with a dual focus in professional counseling and marriage and family therapy, and my career has moved through two distinct chapters that have shaped how I practice. The first half was spent in the world of substance use — working with individuals and families where the stakes were high and the complexity was real. The last several years have been in private practice, where I've worked with the full range of human struggle: depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use disorders, parenting stress, and the disorienting moments when life shifts beneath your feet. I work with individuals, couples, and groups. Very few things surprise me at this point — and that's exactly what makes this work feel safe.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right counselor for your family
Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Detroit
Finding family therapists in Detroit starts with knowing what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns across generations, and major life changes. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention family systems, structural family therapy, parent-child work, or experience with families navigating concerns like stress, grief, or school-related challenges.
Detroit has a range of family therapists across the city and nearby areas, so the right fit often comes down to logistics as much as specialty. Some families prefer in-person sessions near home, school, or work, while others use virtual appointments to make scheduling easier across multiple calendars. Attendance can also vary by session, with the full family, smaller family groups, or individual members joining at different points. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, session format, communication style, and whether they offer a free phone consultation to talk through structure upfront.
Family therapy in Detroit can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make care easier to access. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and confirm coverage for your specific plan on Headway. You can compare profiles, confirm coverage, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
