Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions begin to affect your daily well-being. You don't have to face those struggles alone.

Hi, I'm Kristi, a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of nursing experience and 12 years as a nurse practitioner. My background includes psychiatry, primary care, and acute care, allowing me to approach mental health from a comprehensive, whole-person perspective.
I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders, with a particular interest in women's mental health, perinatal mental health, and navigating major life transitions.
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.
Over years, I have had the opportunity to work in several settings, including juvenile justice, family reunification, community case management, adult inpatient mental health, & transitional care. Because of this I come with different insight into the issues that may be affecting you. Therapeutic support can improve your mental health for the better. I am letting you know you are not alone in the need for support. Let me help you identify, clarify & meet your goals for better quality of life
Hi there! It's so nice to meet you.
I have been a therapist for 6 years and whether this is your first time trying therapy or not, it can feel difficult. Acknowledging you need help is one thing and seeking help is another so I'm glad you're here!
Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I am originally from Chicago, and I bring both my lived experience and professional training into the work I do. I attended the University of Michigan Ann Arbor for undergraduate and graduate schools. I have a strong clinical background in mental health, working with individuals across a range of experiences and challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in creating a space where you can feel seen, heard, and supported. I look forward to working with you on your journey.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Detroit
Finding postpartum therapists in Detroit starts with looking for care that matches your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include more than depression, such as postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, sleep-related strain, and relationship changes. As you compare therapists, look for experience in pregnancy therapy, therapy for new moms, therapy for new parents, or perinatal mental health counseling. Some therapists also list specialized training, such as a perinatal mental health certification (PMH-C), which can signal deeper experience in maternal mental health therapy.
In Detroit, the right therapist also needs to fit your schedule, location, and care preferences. Local offices may work well if you prefer in-person care near home, work, or a regular commute. Virtual appointments can expand access to postpartum therapists across Michigan and may be practical for new parents managing infant care, physical recovery, or changing routines. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for their approach, appointment availability, session structure, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Detroit can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can compare postpartum therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
