I’m a Clinical Therapist with 18 years of experience, helping people work through some of life’s hardest moments. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Michigan State University, and throughout my career I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and walks of life.
I’ve worked with individuals struggling with substance use and recovery, depression, anxiety, stress, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and many other issues. Over the years, I’ve learned that therapy isn’t about having all the answers or being told what you should do. Life is complicated, and sometimes we simply get stuck. We can know what we want to change but still have a hard time figuring out where to start.
The idea of seeking therapy can be a scary process. That’s why as a therapist I always meet my clients where they are in their therapeutic process. I take on a team approach to let my client know that they aren’t alone. Together we can accomplish many obstacles.
Hello: I am Dr. Ken McKellar and I have over 30 years in the Air Force. My background in the Mental Health space goes back to 1991, when I earned a Masters Degree from Boston University's Education Counseling program. I earned a PhD from St Mary's University in San Antonio. I am a licensed LPC in both Michigan and Texas and an LMHC in Florida. In my off time I enjoy golf and attending live music events. I am married and raised three children and have 5 grandchildren.
My name is Dr. Llena Carter. I am originally from the southside of Chicago. I have lived in four different states and traveled to over 40; including teaching/traveling abroad for multiple summers. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and have a breadth of experience. I see therapy as a sacred space where trust and nonjudgment are essential. I am specifically passionate about providing support for persons of color and oppressed populations where therapy may be otherwise stigmatized. I would be honored to walk, even a small part of your journey, with you.
In my 20-plus years of clinical experience, I have worked with individuals, families as well as with couples and groups. My experience has stemmed from a variety of settings including domestic violence shelters, psychiatric units, juvenile detention centers, college campuses and private practice. Consulting work has included Suicide Prevention, DEI trainings, Intergroup Dialogue, and Groups geared toward de-stigmatizing mental wellness for communities of color. All are welcome here.
Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting, but you don't have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I am a dedicated therapist specializing in helping individuals heal from trauma, manage panic disorders, navigate complex relationship dynamics, explore identity, and work through alcohol and substance use challenges. My practice is deeply rooted in supporting people through anxiety, depression, anger management, stress, and family conflicts, with a special focus on maternal mental health, pre-partum, and postpartum care. Whether you are dealing with deep-seated struggles like PTSD or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily life, my goal is to provide a compassionate, inclusive, and deeply human environment where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood.
Hi! I am Chardae Korhonen (She/Her) a licensed clinical social worker and relational therapist.
If you are reading this, I can imagine something in your life isn’t feeling quite right. Maybe you feel stuck or feel disconnected from yourself and the life you want to be living. Maybe you’re navigating hormonal changes—whether that’s PMS/PMDD, perimenopause, or menopause—working through the impact of trauma, navigating relationship challenges or simply exhausted from feeling like you’re constantly surviving instead of actually living.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a strong foundation in community mental health, specializing in crisis intervention, psychotherapy, and helping individuals navigate complex emotional and life challenges. My work is rooted in real-world experience supporting diverse populations through periods of uncertainty, transition, and healing.
I bring a practical, compassionate, and nonjudgmental presence to therapy. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life stressors, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy—your story, your pace, and your goals guide the process.
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.
Welcome! I’m a compassionate Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (APRN, PMHNP-BC) with over 20 years of nursing experience and a Master’s degree in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, currently pursuing my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP). I provide warm, supportive telehealth care for individuals of all ages, offering thoughtful, personalized treatment to meet your unique mental health needs.
I have been doing this work since 2009 — which means I have sat with a lot of people through a lot of different kinds of hard. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling with a dual focus in professional counseling and marriage and family therapy, and my career has moved through two distinct chapters that have shaped how I practice. The first half was spent in the world of substance use — working with individuals and families where the stakes were high and the complexity was real. The last several years have been in private practice, where I've worked with the full range of human struggle: depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, substance use disorders, parenting stress, and the disorienting moments when life shifts beneath your feet. I work with individuals, couples, and groups. Very few things surprise me at this point — and that's exactly what makes this work feel safe.
People come to me when they've been carrying something for a long time: a substance they keep trying to quit, a relationship dynamic that won't change no matter how hard they try, or an anger that costs them more than it should. I'm Nicole, a Licensed Professional Counselor with seven years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families in Michigan, and I believe the right support can shift what feels impossible to change on your own.
I specialize in depression and anxiety, life changes, substance use and addiction counseling, marriage and family therapy, and anger management. I also support clients working through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions, working with adolescents through seniors across a wide range of challenges. My goal is to help you recognize your own strengths, build the tools you need, and feel more in control of where your life is going.
