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.
I was born and raised in Michigan. I love the four seasons and all of the college and professional sport teams. I have over 20 years of behavioral health experience and both mental health and substance abuse. I also hold a certificate from Western Michigan University for treating drug and alcohol addictions.
“I believe that everyone goes through challenges in life. Having someone to guide you on your journey is important. Counseling is a collaborative process and together we will make a plan and begin your journey.
I received my Masters degree from Texas Tech University. I have spent several years working and volunteering with counseling centers, school districts, Disaster work, Career Counseling, Academic Counseling, and teaching. I specialize in working with clients with sleep disorders.
If you are carrying more than you can handle on your own: anxiety, stress, a difficult relationship, or a life change that caught you off guard, reaching out takes real courage, and I
want you to feel welcomed here. I am Victor, an LMSW, and I believe every person already has unique strengths worth building on. Together, we will work at your pace to develop
coping strategies that hold up in real life. My space is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and built around your goals. I would love to connect.
Welcome! My name is Corrie Sjoblom, I am an LMSW in Michigan. A lot of people who reach out to me have been carrying something heavy for a long time, often feeling exhausted, disconnected, sad, or lost from your purpose. That changes here. Let’s work together to rebuild a sense of safety, steadiness, and hope — at a pace that works for you.
As a licensed clinical social worker with a master’s degree from The National Catholic School of Social Services, I bring extensive experience from my work in university-based teaching hospitals and ambulatory care clinics. My practice focuses on supporting adults and their caregivers through challenges such as anxiety, depression, complex medical conditions (acute and chronic), medical trauma, loss, grief, and significant life transitions.
I have a specialization in guiding individuals and their caregivers through the cancer journey, encompassing every phase—from diagnosis and treatment to recovery, survivorship, and end-of-life care. I have also worked extensively with patients undergoing stem cell transplants, CAR-T and immunotherapy.
My training and experience also includes helping individuals manage disorders of the brain-gut interaction. Support, education and strategies address the connection between the mind and gastrointestinal health. Recognizing that everyday stressors can greatly affect your well-being, I adapt my clinical approach to suit a variety of life situations, always tailoring care to meet your unique needs.
I am a board-certified PMHNP with extensive experience in the field of mental health. With a comprehensive background spanning child and adult inpatient and outpatient settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise into practice. Committed to providing holistic and compassionate care. I combine psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy to address the unique needs of each patient.
Maybe you're the one everyone relies on. The helper, the overthinker, the people-pleaser, the perfectionist, or the one who always seems to have it together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, fertility and infertility challenges, postpartum transitions, relationship concerns, and major life changes. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or the need to have everything figured out.
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'm Kalyn — a licensed therapist (LMSW) with 9 years of experience and a background that started in community organizing and advocacy, not a clinic. That foundation shapes everything about how I work: I take your whole context seriously, not just your symptoms. I went to the University of Michigan for my MSW, and I've spent nearly a decade working with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, chronic illness, grief, identity, and the kind of stress that doesn't show up in a checklist.I work with adults across Michigan via virtual sessions, and I want you to know that I bring my full self to this work — including my own lived experience as a Black woman navigating a world that doesn't always make space for us to fall apart or ask for help.
