Grief counselors and therapists in Midland, MI

Hello. I would describe myself as being kind, caring and full of positive energy. I have 8years of experience working with substance abuse. I have 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I graduated with both my Bachelor's and Master's in Social Work from Wayne State University. I have experience working in schools with middle school and high school. My preference is to work with co-occurring disorders (mental health diagnosis and substance abuse diagnosis).

I am a seasoned professional who has worked in various settings within Healthcare including crisis intervention and chronic conditions such as Cancer.

I value honesty and effort. We work as a team to help you realize your full potential. Growth isn’t measured by success but by effort and consistency.

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and a University of Michigan graduate, and my

area of expertise is co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Over the course of

my career, I have worked with individuals navigating addiction, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and

the complex challenges that arise when these conditions intersect. I believe that healing

happens in a space where you feel genuinely safe and understood, and I am committed to

providing exactly that. I would love to work alongside you as you move toward the life you

deserve.

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 offer a judgment-free space where we can work together toward your mental health goals. In our work, we will not just talk through the problems, concerns, or challenges bringing you to therapy. We will also focus on practical tools that can help change how you experience those situations and support you in moving toward a healthier version of yourself. I use a blend of evidence-based treatment approaches that I tailor to each client’s unique needs and goals.

I earned my LMSW from Grand Valley State University and have 17 years of experience across a wide range of mental health settings, including outpatient care, the emergency department, inpatient treatment, and partial hospitalization, along with many other levels of care in between. My additional training includes trauma-informed care, suicide risk assessment and safety planning, and DBT. Clients can expect me to meet them where they are while being empowering, transparent, direct, and focused on helping them reach their treatment goals.

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.
