You may have already tried pushing through on your own. Whether you're a teenager struggling to keep up with life, a family stuck in the same painful cycle, or an adult still carrying something you've never said out loud, you don't have to figure this out alone. I'm Meghan, a licensed clinical social worker based in Michigan and a proud graduate of Michigan State University. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, stress, depression, and the weight of complicated relationships. I've spent 16 years in this work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real warmth to every

session - no judgment, no cookie-cutter advice. I work entirely via telehealth, so you can access care from wherever you are in Michigan - whether that's your living room, your car between school pickups, or a quiet office.

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Circle of Life Wellness Services, where I provide compassionate, whole-person care for adults and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. My work focuses on supporting people through emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the many adjustments that come with different seasons of life.

I have a special interest in women’s mental health and maternal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustments, caregiving stress, burnout, and balancing personal needs with family, relationships and professional responsibilities. I also support clients coping with grief and loss, life changes, and feeling “stuck” or disconnected from themselves.

At Circle of Life, I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and seen. My goal is to walk alongside you as you move toward balance, clarity, and emotional wellness—at your own pace.

Kathleen Faber

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


I've spent 30 years working in some of the harder corners of mental health — public mental health systems, behavioral health leadership, substance use treatment — and what I've carried forward from all of it is this: people heal when they feel genuinely seen. Not processed. Not managed. Seen.I work with adults, adolescents, and seniors who are navigating grief, addiction, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and sometimes the particular weight that comes with illness, loss, and end-of-life experiences — their own or someone they love. I'm a licensed professional counselor in Michigan with dual master's degrees and advanced training in CBT, trauma-focused therapy, ACT, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and Critical Incident Stress Debriefing.My approach is practical in the truest sense of that word: I'm here to help you develop skills you can actually use, not just insight that stays in the room. And I take whatever time we need to make sure the work actually fits your life, not just a textbook version of your situation.
