Grief counselors and therapists in Detroit, MI

Hi, I’m Dr. Tonya Griffith, a trauma-informed therapist who works with teens, adults, and couples navigating the effects of trauma. I help you make sense of how past experiences may be shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships today—without judgment.

Together, we focus on building practical coping skills, stability, and a stronger sense of control in your life. My approach is compassionate, straightforward, and centered on your growth. If you’re ready to start, feel free to call or email me.

I’m a dual-certified psychiatric (PMHNP-BC) and Adult-Gero Primary Care (NP-C) nurse practitioner with 17 years of experience across a variety of healthcare settings. My clinical education includes a Master of Science in Nursing and post-graduate certificate from the University of Michigan-Flint. I treat clients age 13-65 with a variety or mental health conditions, but I especially enjoy working with middle-aged adults struggling with life and health transitions.

For over 16 years I worked with individuals suffering from anxiety, grief and loss, and depression. We need a space to process, heal and maneuver through life transitions. If you want a neutral, validating and non judgmental safe space, Let’s Process is that place for you.

I provide a safe and validating space for all clients. Allowing clients to have a space to freely expressed themselves without judgement, while learning interventions and tools along the way.

Explore for yourself what happens when we process our feelings and embrace our healing journey.

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 partner with people experiencing depression, anxiety, addiction related coping and life transitions to identify and reach their goals. I am dedicated to serving the needs of the LGBTQ+ and broader community and am committed to creating a safe, accepting and supportive environment for those I partner with.

**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 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 am passionate about empowering people to change their lives for the better. I strive to build a genuine and empathic relationship, free of judgment with clients, while working as a team to achieve your goals. I work to empower you on your journey while increasing self-awareness
