Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Ypsilanti, MI

My name is Amy Plettner and I have 7 years professional experience. I received my masters degree in social work from the University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee.

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.

Seeking therapy can be anxiety provoking. But it can also create welcome change. When I initially speak with clients, I want to hear their story; where they have been and where they want to go. As a team, I want to help them get there. I see the relationship between a client and therapist as a collaboration of efforts. We create a team based approach, where I can help a client "connect the dots" to gain a better understanding of their every day life experiences and challenges.

I graduated from MSU with my BSW, and then received my MSW from U-M. I have been practicing for about 30 years. I specialize in anxiety/depression, parent guidance, grief, coping, trauma, relationship issues and life transitions.

I am Ronda Storm. After 30 years as a nurse, in 2019 I earned my Master's Degree in professional counseling from Grand Canyon University. I have been practicing as a therapist for the past 7 years, seeing a wide range of clients while working at an agency. In 2022 I went into private practice and I love what I do!

For me, I aim to help others transform their lives through compassionate, personalized care (with plenty of humor along the way). I specialize in working with people of color, student-athletes, and those who are neurodivergent. If you’re neurodivergent and reading this, you’ve finally found someone who specializes in and deeply understands your unique perspective. Whether seeking clarity on behaviors, understanding how you interpret the world, or navigating challenges, I am here to help.
