ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Novi, MI

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.

As a clinician my practice is grounded in the belief that our brains are incredibly adaptable, but they get easily stuck in old protective patterns. My clinical approach blends cognitive -behaviolra strategies with somatic mindfulness. This means we don't just analyze your thoughts; we actively work to reprogram the automatic nervous sytem responses that keep you in fight - or - flight mode.

If you're navigating trauma, family crisis, or the kind of stress that's impossible to put into words, you've come to the right place. Rooted in personal faith and professional purpose, I walk alongside children, teens, women, and families who are carrying more than their share. Whatever you're holding right now, you don't have to hold it alone. Meet your new therapist DeShonda Davis, LMSW-C, CCIS-II, a dedicated Licensed Clinical Master Social Worker and Certified Crisis Intervention Specialist. I have committed my career to helping individuals and families find safety, stability, and lasting healing. My professional background specializes in family preservation, trauma-informed care, and crisis stabilization. I hold both a Bachelor and a Master of Social Work from Wayne State University, with advanced training in crisis de-escalation and stabilization.

I've been a listener my whole life — since I was a teenager, long before I had any clinical training, I learned that the most powerful thing one person can do for another is to genuinely pay attention. That hasn't changed. What has changed is that now I have the tools, training, and experience to help that attention lead somewhere. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Michigan. I work with individuals, families, couples, and children — and I see clients across the state through telehealth. I'm trained in a range of approaches including CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Bowen Family Systems, which means I can adapt to what actually fits you — not just apply a template. I'm also comfortable holding faith and spirituality as part of your story if that's relevant for you. I'm not a "Christian therapist" in a prescriptive sense, but I've spent years working as a chaplain and I understand how much a person's spiritual framework shapes how they see themselves and the world. That's a welcome part of the conversation here.

Across my clinical and human services work, I have developed a calm, steady approach to helping people move through dificult seasons. I am a member of the counseling team at my church. I have worked with individuals afected by trauma, domestic violence, abuse, neglect, and family stress. Through my work experience, I am able to create supportive environments where clients feel heard, respected, and guided toward practical next steps. My experience has strengthened my ability to build trust quickly, communicate with care, and respond thoughtfully in high-stress situations. I am comfortable working with diverse needs and backgrounds while maintaining boundaries,confidentiality, and a client-centered focus.

Are you ready to make a change? I can help you with life transitions, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and getting unstuck. You can expect increased clarity, confidence, and hope as you move toward a fuller life.
