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.
If anxiety, depression, substance use, or ADHD is part of what brings you here, I offer virtual therapy in Michigan for adolescents and adults. I’m a licensed psychologist, and I also work with families.
I help adults navigate trauma, life transitions, and reentry challenges with structured, supportive counseling that leads to clarity and real change. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward after a difficult season, you're not alone, and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.
You might look like you have it together, but internally you’re overthinking everything, overgiving in relationships, and second-guessing yourself constantly. Many of my clients learned early on to prioritize others’ emotions, and now feel stuck, anxious, or unsure of what they actually want. I help you understand these patterns and break out of them so you can feel more confident, grounded, and clear in your relationships.
With 34 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've walked alongside people through some of the heaviest chapters of life — chronic illness, grief, trauma, and the kind of relationship pain that makes you question your own judgment. I earned my MSW at the University of Michigan and have spent three decades learning what actually helps people move forward.
I work exclusively via telehealth for adults and older adults in Michigan and Arizona. One thing I want you to know: I will never use AI to record our sessions. What you share with me stays between us.
A former client described working with me as "the right mix of supportive and challenging." I think that's what honest, effective therapy looks like — not just validation, but real engagement with where you want to go.
I've spent 30 years working in some of the harder corners of mental health — public mental health systems, behavioral health leadership, substance use treatment — and what I've carried forward from all of it is this: people heal when they feel genuinely seen. Not processed. Not managed. Seen.I work with adults, adolescents, and seniors who are navigating grief, addiction, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and sometimes the particular weight that comes with illness, loss, and end-of-life experiences — their own or someone they love. I'm a licensed professional counselor in Michigan with dual master's degrees and advanced training in CBT, trauma-focused therapy, ACT, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, and Critical Incident Stress Debriefing.My approach is practical in the truest sense of that word: I'm here to help you develop skills you can actually use, not just insight that stays in the room. And I take whatever time we need to make sure the work actually fits your life, not just a textbook version of your situation.
Hi, I’m Dr. Tonya Griffith, a trauma-informed therapist who works with teens, adults, and couples navigating the effects of trauma. I help you make sense of how past experiences may be shaping your thoughts, emotions, and relationships today—without judgment.
Together, we focus on building practical coping skills, stability, and a stronger sense of control in your life. My approach is compassionate, straightforward, and centered on your growth. If you’re ready to start, feel free to call or email me.
I’m a dual-certified psychiatric (PMHNP-BC) and Adult-Gero Primary Care (NP-C) nurse practitioner with 17 years of experience across a variety of healthcare settings. My clinical education includes a Master of Science in Nursing and post-graduate certificate from the University of Michigan-Flint. I treat clients age 13-65 with a variety or mental health conditions, but I especially enjoy working with middle-aged adults struggling with life and health transitions.
Hello, and welcome.
I am a dedicated mental health professional with 18 years of experiencing working with teens, adults, and families. I am committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with clarity, resilience, and confidence. I specialize in processing childhood trauma and clearing limiting beliefs.
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. 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. 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.
