I'm Jennifer, and I know that deciding to reach out takes real courage. I've spent 23 years working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, eating disorders, autism spectrum concerns, tic disorders, and OCD. My BTTI certification in Tourette's and OCD treatment means you can bring even the most complex or misunderstood challenges here. My approach is practical, compassionate, and built around what you specifically need. I'd love to be part of your story.
Hi, I’m Reilly, a Licensed Master Clinical Social Worker and the founder of Therapy Unboxed.
I work with individuals and couples who want to better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and move through life with greater clarity.
Therapy offers space to slow down, understand the patterns shaping your experiences, and begin making meaningful changes.
I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from The University of Michigan and am currently completing advanced training in couples and sex therapy through Sexual Health Alliance.
Outside the therapy room, you can usually find me volunteering at a local animal shelter, binge-watching Law & Order, or spending time with my dog, Stevie.
**Accepting teen/adult female clients only at this time.**
I’m a licensed therapist and founder of a private practice built around helping people create meaningful, lasting change, not just short-term relief. My background includes working with teen and adult women navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and deeply ingrained behavioral and emotional patterns.
My work is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), with a strong emphasis on understanding the biology and evolution of the human brain. I help clients make sense of how their nervous system, thoughts, and emotional responses were shaped—and how those patterns show up in daily life as habits that may no longer serve them.
I also integrate radical responsibility and mindful self-compassion into my work. That means we don’t stay stuck in blame or avoidance, but we also don’t approach change through shame. Instead, we build awareness, ownership, and the capacity to respond to yourself and your life differently.
While I’m direct and engaged in the work, I’m also laid back and less formal in my style. I believe therapy can be both meaningful and productive and have moments of lightness, humor, and real human connection along the way.
I work best with clients who are ready to look inward, challenge themselves, and actively participate in the process of change.
I am a clinical social worker and graduated from the University of Michigan School of Social Work where I focused on early childhood development and family practice. I have training in, child development, attachment theory, play therapy, mindfulness, infant and child-parent psychotherapy, perinatal and postpartum transitions, mind-body techniques, couples therapy and trauma-focused therapies.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Detroit, MI
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.
