Family therapy and counseling in Grand Rapids, MI

I have worked in the Social Work field for about 10 years and found my specialty and passion in therapy. I am a compassionate and non-judgmental therapist who enjoys working one-on-one with individuals seeking help. I specialize in anxiety, depression, self-harm behaviors, trauma, family conflict, postpartum, and LGBTQ+ issues.

With over 20 years of experience, I've had the privilege of sitting with people through some of life's hardest chapters — and watching them find their way through. I'm Olja Haglund, a Licensed Master Social Worker based in Michigan. I work with adults only, and I bring a warm, direct presence to every session. I speak both English and Albanian fluently and welcome clients from Albanian-speaking communities across Michigan and beyond. I offer both in-person and telehealth sessions — so wherever you are in Michigan, we can make this work. My specialties include trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, codependency, and women's issues. I believe healing is possible for everyone, and I'm here to help you find your version of it.

Hi, I'm Heather Johnson, a faith centered Christian therapist passionate about creating a safe and supportive space where healing, growth, and restoration can take place. I have over 5 years of experience and my approach to therapy is rooted in compassion, grace and meeting each person exactly where they are in their journey. I work with individuals and families to navigate life's challenges, build resilience, and develop practical tools for lasting emotional wellness. Guided by the belief that healing and restoration are possible through faith, hope and connection, I strive to reflect God's love by offering a space of understanding, encouragement, and support. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients as they move toward healing, clarity, and peace.

I began my career working with children and quickly expanded my expertise to include adults and couples. Throughout my 26 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have seen the incredible power of the human spirit to overcome trauma and unexpected life struggles. Watching my clients transition from "surviving" to "thriving" remains the most inspiring part of my work.

I provide counseling for individuals and families who are facing many forms of conflict including addiction, anxiety, depression, grief and significant life transitions. I understand that seeking support often comes at a time when life feels overwhelming or uncertain, and my priority is to offer a compassionate, steady place to work through these challenges. Together we take the time you need to explore what brought you here and what you're hoping to change. Your goals - whether they involve healing from loss, breaking patterns related to addiction, or navigating a difficult transition - will guide the direction of our sessions.

I began my professional career working with children and families in the judicial system, foster care and adoption. From there I transitioned to working with children and families with severe emotional challenges and adults with serious mental illness. Working in the community mental health system has provided me the opportunity to receive extensive training in mental health disorders and evidence based practices suited to treatment. It has also provided me the competency skills necessary to work with people from diverse backgrounds. Throughout my professional career, my commitment to helping others succeed lead me into leadership. While in leadership, I have helped to coach and develop other professionals to achieve their professional development goals.

Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. Choosing to seek support is an act of courage, and your future self will thank you for showing yourself kindness today. My name is Renee. I graduated from University of Southern California School of Social Work in 2014. I specialize in working with individuals carrying the weight of significant trauma, addictions, unresolved grief, and painful life experiences that can feel isolating or overwhelming. I support those who struggle with trust after unhealthy relationships, major life transitions, or who have turned to alcohol or other substances to cope with emotional pain.

I also work with individuals healing from addiction, substance use, and mental health challenges, and I have experience supporting military families as they navigate the unique barriers of having a loved one in the military, as well as serving Veterans. My goal is to offer a supportive space for healing, connection, and meaningful change.

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.

In my approach to counseling, I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as the main approaches to counseling.
