Grief counselors and therapists in Ypsilanti, MI

Hi, my name is Melissa and I am a Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience providing therapy to adolescents and adults ages 12 and older. My practice is rooted in trauma-informed care and utilizes evidence-based approaches such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients process experiences, reduce distress, and move toward meaningful change. I am also inquisitive and a conversationalist.

My name is Nicholas Zubek, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with individuals of all ages, including children ages 4 and up, struggling with suicidal ideation, self-harm, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and empowered.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and graduate of Michigan State University, providing therapy for clients of all ages. My work is grounded in a trauma‐informed approach, and I am certified in EMDR and TF‐CBT. I specialize in supporting victims of crime, non‐offending caregivers, domestic violence survivors, and individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and the effects of trauma.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience partnering with adolescents, adults of all ages and families. I am bilingual so I offer therapy in english and spanish.

I am a mental health professional who integrates evidence based practices with a Christ Like worldview to support healing, growth, restoration and transformation. True wellness and stability includes all aspects of the person that includes the mind, body, and spirit, and I strive to create a safe, grace-filled space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I value providing services to help individuals navigate the the challenging journey of life and offer a non judgemental space where clients can be open, vulnerable and honest about any challenges that they may be facing.

I hold a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Social Work from Western Michigan University, equipping me with a strong foundation in clinical practice and social work principles.

My professional background as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker encompasses a diverse range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, Biblical Christian Counseling, Problem-Solving Therapy (PST), Relational Therapy, Solution-Focused Couples Therapy, Strength-Based Therapy, Cognitive Trauma-Focused Therapy, and Family-Focused Therapy.

I am dedicated to providing tailored, compassionate care to male and female adults, as well as the geriatric population, addressing a wide spectrum of mental health, emotional, and relational needs to foster empowerment and well-being.

As a licensed therapist, I believe prioritizing your mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. I know that reaching out for help is difficult, and you are taking the first steps. I’ve been practicing for 25 years and my main focus to female clients who are struggling with anxiety and depression.
