Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Southfield, MI

I specialize in helping individuals break free from fears, worries and stress that hold them back from experiencing true happiness. These fears are often rooted in trauma, loss and other experiences that challenge our ability to work through the pain.

Hi there, and thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Gabi, and I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). During my graduate training, I focused on mastering Aaron Beck’s CBT approach, which continues to guide my work in helping clients develop insight, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful change.

I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling and am credentialed to provide Substance Use Disorder (SUD) therapy. I completed advanced Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) training through the Dialectical Behavioral Institute in Michigan, and I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I also hold specialized certifications in ADHD (CCSP), anger management (CSAM), anxiety treatment (CCATP), and mood disorders.

My clinical experience includes work as a residential therapist, in a faith-based private practice, facilitating counseling services in correctional facilities, and in hospital emergency psychiatric units supporting individuals in crisis. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists.

I primarily work with adults 18 and older, offering a safe, supportive, and professional environment. My approach is collaborative and evidence-based, integrating CBT and DBT techniques to promote balance, resilience, and personal growth.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 13 years of experience in behavioral health, including more than a decade as a psychiatric registered nurse. I earned my post-master’s certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from the University of Cincinnati and hold a Master of Science in Nursing with a focus in Clinical Nurse Specialist and Nursing Education from the University of Detroit Mercy.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds in outpatient, residential, correctional, and community-based settings. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, PTSD, schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders.

I believe mental health care should be collaborative, respectful, and individualized. My goal is to create a comfortable, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understand your treatment options, and feel empowered to take an active role in your mental health and overall well-being.

You do not have to figure everything out alone. You deserve to feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change in your life. I am an open, understanding, and out of the box thinker who believes in helping you recognize your strengths and build a foundation you can stand on. I work especially well with parents and families, with experience in infant mental health, family therapy, crisis management, and supporting children with emotional disturbances. I became a therapist because people have always trusted me with their stories, and I genuinely love helping people feel better. My goal is to create a space where you can authentically be yourself without judgment.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 21 years of experience and a background that

goes well beyond the therapy room. Before I became a therapist, I worked across a wide

range of fields — and I bring that broad human perspective into every session. I don't

approach your struggle with a clipboard. I approach it with genuine curiosity about who you

are.

I'm trained in EMDR, CBT, ACT, and DBT, which means I have real tools for real problems —

anxiety that won't quiet down, ADHD that's been dismissed for years, trauma that's never

been properly addressed, grief that doesn't follow a timeline, or a relationship that needs

rebuilding. I work with adults, older adults and seniors, and adolescents, and I offer both in-

person sessions in Fenton, Michigan and telehealth throughout the state.

I also accept Medicare, VA Community Care, TRICARE, and over 25 other insurance plans

— because access to quality care shouldn't be the barrier that stops someone from getting

better.

Life is full of joys and sorrows, and none of us should have to get through it alone. I'm Nikki, a Michigan therapist specializing in perinatal and postpartum care, tweens, adolescents, and young adults. I see therapy as an essential part of mind-body-spirit wellbeing. I'd love to hear from you.

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 an empathetic, patient, and inclusive therapist with a passion for helping others that are going through difficult transitions in life and experiencing hardships. My foundation is based on establishing trust and providing a safe and accepting space for open communication to build a strong therapeutic alliance. I collaborate with clients to improve their emotional quality of life, develop their capacity to handle life’s stressors and mental health concerns. My counseling style is diversified, integrating person-centered, psychodynamic, emotionally focused, cognitive-behavioral, and existential therapy into counseling sessions.

I am passionate about helping adults of all ages struggling with mood disorders, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism spectrum disorder, trauma/post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive behaviors. I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds, including neurodivergent and those who identify as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community.

After years as a bereavement coordinator in hospice care, I have sat with some of life's hardest moments: grief, serious illness, caregiving, and loss. Those experiences showed

me that healing looks different for everyone. My goal is to offer a warm, compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard and supported as you build the

confidence to move forward. Whether you are facing grief, anxiety, depression, caregiver stress, or a major life transition, I would be honored to support you on this journey.
