ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Grand Rapids, MI

My specialties include anxiety and panic recovery, adult child estrangement, narcissistic family systems, boundaries without guilt, trauma recovery, emotional regulation, Christian-specific mental health, loneliness and isolation, and parenting adult children. Together, we will pinpoint what is holding you back and implement effective strategies.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out for help. Sometimes you simply know that something needs to change. I offer a compassionate, thoughtful place to be heard, understood, and supported as you move forward. Call or email me today to schedule a consultation and see if we’re a good fit.

I currently reside in Northeast Michigan along the beautiful Lake Huron and have a license to practice in Michigan. I am passionate about supporting individuals on their journey toward self-understanding and an overall well-being. As a clinician, I believe in creating a safe, compassionate space where you feel heard and understood.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your emotions, or constantly fighting your own mind, you’re not alone. Many teens and adults I work with describe racing thoughts, intense feelings, difficulty focusing, or patterns that feel impossible to break. Whether it’s anxiety that won’t quiet down, depression that drains your energy, ADHD that makes daily life harder than it should be, or trauma that still echoes in the present—I help people find steadiness, clarity, and confidence again.

Hi! I am Valerie L. Rennon MSN, APRN, WHNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. I am a dual board certified nurse practitioner in both psychiatric mental health and women's health across the lifespan. I have been in practice for over a year now and my most recent experience has been in an underserved and underinsured area of downtown Detroit, MI.

I have also been an adjunct clinical instructor for RN students over the past 3 years. I am a graduate from Michigan State University, University of Colorado Anschutz, University of Texas Arlington and Colorado Mountain College. Having moved about the country for a bit, my husband of 18 years and I have established our home in MI with our two children, dog Curley and our bearded dragon Sami.

As a Master of Social Work–trained therapist, my experience in hospice and mental health has given me a deep appreciation for the challenges that come with grief, anxiety, and major life transitions. I work with adults ages 18+ and provide a warm, practical, and unhurried space where you can feel heard and supported. Together, we'll explore what's getting in the way of the life you want and identify meaningful steps toward change. My goal is to help you build resilience, find clarity, and move forward with confidence.
