Family therapy and counseling in Grand Rapids, MI

Many people reach out for counseling when life feels heavier than usual—when relationships are strained, emotions feel harder to manage, or when they feel overwhelmed with grief. for more than a decade, I have been helping families and individuals of all ages to cope, process and navigate around these issues. My goal is to offer a space where you do not have to hold all of that alone.

Hi, I’m Brittany. I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Therapist with more than 10 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s challenges, transitions, and seasons of growth.

At the heart of my work is a genuine love for helping people better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and reconnect with the parts of themselves that may have gotten lost along the way. I especially enjoy working with teens, adults, and families, and I believe some of the most meaningful change happens when we have a safe space to show up as our whole selves—not just the parts that seem easiest to explain.

I bring warmth, compassion, curiosity, and a little humor into the therapy room. You don’t need to arrive with the right words or have everything figured out. Come as you are—we’ll start there.

You may look like you're holding everything together. But inside, you're exhausted.

Your mind won't slow down. You're replaying conversations, worrying about your child, trying to keep up with work and family, or wondering why things that used to feel manageable suddenly feel so difficult.

Maybe your child or teenager is struggling with anxiety, ADHD, big emotions, school, friendships, or changes at home—and you're not sure what else to try.

Or maybe you're the one everyone depends on, and you've become so focused on taking care of everyone else that you've stopped feeling like yourself.

You don't have to wait until things get worse to get support.

I'm Cynthia High-Gutierrez, LCSW, a bilingual English/Spanish therapist with more than 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.

I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD/neurodiversity, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, women's issues, and major life transitions.

My background in public schools, school-based mental health, hospitals, and outpatient therapy gives me a unique perspective—especially when emotional health, family life, relationships, work, and school begin affecting one another.

Life can feel especially heavy when you are carrying anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship stress, family expectations, or the pressure of balancing different cultural worlds. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to adults in Illinois and Michigan, with a particular interest in supporting South Asian adults, women, and professionals.

I offer therapy in English, Hindi, and Urdu. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel understood as a whole person—including your culture, identity, family relationships, values, and life experiences. You do not have to minimize what you are feeling or explain why your cultural and family circumstances matter.

I have served OH and MI areas for over 2 decades. Once specializing in children, now I enjoy working with preteens, teens, and adults who can participate more actively in their treatment. I started specializing in trauma in 2016 after I completed extensive training.

I listen, provide empathy in a way to make you feel empowered without judgement or negativity.

My name is Mary McMillian Minor. I have been a school counselor and a mental health counselor for forty years. I also worked as a special-education teacher for 20 years, helping me understand students with disabilities and parents navigating the available service for their children. My passion is helping individuals navigate the challenges of life. I instill my clients with the superpower of Resilience.

I specialize in helping with all types of relationships, anxiety, stress, sex and intimacy. I also offer Christian counseling and have a heart for those who have experienced hurt or rejection from faith communities.

I offer support and skills to those exploring identity, intimacy, or relational complexity—whether in gender, sexuality, kink, or deocolonized relationships. They may be sitting with grief, unraveling the impact of trauma, or feeling the weight of past experiences in their body. They long for connection but struggle with vulnerability, trust, or belonging. Some feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, while others are questioning the stories they’ve been told about who they are. They seek a space where they can be seen without judgment, process their experiences, and make sense of the systems shaping their lives.

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.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Illinois 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.
