Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Flint, MI

Hi there, my name is Tyler White, and I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 5 years. I'm a young clinician that enjoys connecting with individuals and going on their journey with them. Born and raised in the metropolitan Detroit area, I received my bachelor's of arts degree in psychology from Oakland University and earned my Master of Social Work at Wayne State University. I work mainly with adults but have an interest and a passion for working with individual in the 20's and 30's (and up). To help them explore their anxieties, relationship difficulties, depressive features and the many different transitions or changes within their lives. Which can cause many uncertainties, distress, and lack of connection.

Greetings! With 15 years of experience working with adults in mental health and trauma, I am passionate about being a catalyst for change and empowering individuals in their healing journey. I believe meaningful change begins with feeling seen, heard, and empowered to move forward.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan, I believe that therapy is your space, shaped by what you need right now.

You are the expert on your own life and your own healing. My role is to meet you where you are and walk with you on your path, sometimes guiding, sometimes following, but mostly walking side-by-side.

Are you someone who has spent much of your life being strong for everyone else—caring for others, holding things together, and continuing to move forward even when you feel overwhelmed? Maybe somewhere along the way, you’ve lost touch with yourself or found yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or your own sense of self-worth.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with adults and adolescents to better understand the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be affecting their lives and relationships. I believe meaningful healing begins with greater self-awareness and understanding. My approach is warm, compassionate, trauma-informed, and collaborative, while also providing the support and gentle challenge needed for growth. Together, we can work toward healthier boundaries, stronger relationships, greater self-worth, and lasting change that helps you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want to create.
