Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Saginaw, MI

Before earning my Masters in Counseling, I earned a PhD in social and personality psychology. This background deeply informs how I show up as a therapist. I help clients address unresolved trauma and grief, anxiety and OCD, address relationship issues, as well as "problems of everyday living." My style is active, engaged, and practical.

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.

I have over 20 years of working with diverse populations. I enjoy building relationships with my clients that focuses on your strengths, identify barriers to your goals and help you navigate ways to get to where you want to be. I use an evidence based holistic approach that is client-centered. Whether you’re wanting to focus on your sexual health, addictions, sexual assault, domestic violence, grief, loss, raising children, you name it! I have successfully supported hundreds of folks who want to live their best life on their terms! Give me a call today and you’ll see why clients say, “I'm the BEST at helping you get there!”

I hold two clinical credentials: an LPC and a QIDP — a Qualified Intellectual Disability Professional — which means my clinical training extends across a wide range of presentations, and I bring that breadth to every client I see.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, maternal mental health, infertility, grief, relationship stress, and the complicated emotions that come with life transitions like divorce and parenthood. I believe you already have the strengths to get through this — my job is to help you find and build on them.

My style is laid back and warm, with a sense of humor that tends to take the edge off. You deserve a therapist you can actually talk to, and I take that seriously.

Whether you're navigating personal challenges, supporting your child through a difficult transition, or seeking stronger family connections, you don't have to figure it out alone. With a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and over a decade of specialized experience across school, residential, and outpatient settings, I help clients of all ages build resilience and practical strategies for lasting change. Together, we’ll turn complex emotional and behavioral challenges into clear paths forward. My aim is to help my patients feel empowered in and out of sessions.

Every new beginning starts with one step and you don't have to take it alone. I’m Marsha, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m glad you’re here.

Reaching out for support is a sign of strength, not weakness and you don’t have to navigate difficult seasons of life alone. With more than 30 years of experience supporting individuals and families through a wide range of life transitions, including emotional well-being, relationship and family issues, trauma, medical concerns, caregiver support, and other stressful circumstances you may have encountered.

Serving Veterans, families, homelessness, and vulnerable adults to create a path toward greater balance and well-being. My goal is not to tell you how to live your life, but to walk alongside you, listen, provide support, and help you discover the path that feels right for you.

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.

Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois and Michigan with over thirty years experience in the Employee Assistance Program field. I received my Masters in Social Work from Loyola University in 1992.

My specialty areas include relationship challenges, parenting, substance abuse, depression, anxiety and eating disorders. I primarily work with adults and teens.

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

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 35 years and have worked with all age clients from age 6 to older adults. I work with issues of anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationships problems, ADH-D, Autism and learning disabilities.

I'll try to summarize quickly so you don't have to scan far.

Not every therapist is for everyone. Fit matters more than anything, and you deserve a connection that feels safe and open. With my clients I try to be real and honest, while maintaining empathy, presence and humor. We can go slow, laugh, cry, and move at your pace.

We might fit well if: You're anxious or struggling to cope with the state of the world. You've experienced loss/grief. You're working on relationships and boundaries. You're trying to "be you" in a world that doesn't support. You're feeling challenged parenting, partnering, and "doing it all". Newness is hard.
