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 am a licensed professional counselor who is passionate about helping people feel understood, supported, and equipped to create meaningful change in their lives. My work is grounded in evidence-based practices, and I specialize in supporting individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, and challenges with anger or emotional regulation.
I strive to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without judgement. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking to better understand yourself, we'll work together at a pace that feels right for you. I value authenticity, collaboration, and building a strong therapeutic relationship, because real change happens when you feel safe and supported.
I work with mothers who are overwhelmed, burnt-out, or tired of juggling it all. For some, the intensity of motherhood brings up difficult emotions or unprocessed parts of their past. Others feel lost under the burden of care-taking and managing the mental load. With compassion and skill, we’ll tend to the parts of you that have been neglected. We’ll develop strategies for prioritizing your needs. We’ll make space for your brilliant light to shine once again!
I'm Brooke- a Michigan-based therapist with 26 years of experience and a deep belief that people are more resilient than they given themselves credit for. I work entirely online, which means you can access quality mental health care from wherever you are in Michigan. I've worked with hundreds of individuals across the lifespan- from teens navigating pressure to seniors managing life transitions - and what I've learned is that most people don't need to be "fixed". They need someone who actually listens, helps them see patterns they've been too close to notice, and walks alongside them as they build the life they want. I accept BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, Priority Health, Carelon, Ascension, and Medicare Advantage- so insurance is rarely a barrier.
I have been a practicing therapist and school social worker for the past 33 years. I have extensive experience with helping children, adults and families find solution-oriented strategies to help ease symptoms of depression and anxiety. My goal is to help others improve their quality of life at every stage from childhood into adulthood.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Circle of Life Wellness Services, where I provide compassionate, whole-person care for adults and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. My work focuses on supporting people through emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, relationship changes, and the many adjustments that come with different seasons of life.
I have a special interest in women’s mental health and maternal mental health, including pregnancy, postpartum adjustments, caregiving stress, burnout, and balancing personal needs with family, relationships and professional responsibilities. I also support clients coping with grief and loss, life changes, and feeling “stuck” or disconnected from themselves.
At Circle of Life, I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and seen. My goal is to walk alongside you as you move toward balance, clarity, and emotional wellness—at your own pace.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master’s degree in Counseling from Central Michigan University.

Sessions can be in-person or via telehealth, with flexible scheduling and clear communication about privacy and plans. If you’re unsure about therapy, an initial chat can help us decide if we’re a good fit and outline your next steps.
Welcome! I'm Grace.
As a clinical social worker, I am passionate about helping people recognize the strengths they may not always see in themselves. Life can bring challenges that leave us feeling stuck, discouraged, or uncertain.

Whether you’re wanting to focus on your sexual health, addictions, sexual assault, domestic violence, grief, loss, raising children, you name it! I have successfully supported hundreds of folks who want to live their best life on their terms! Give me a call today and you’ll see why clients say, “I'm the BEST at helping you get there!”
I offer a judgment-free space where we can work together toward your mental health goals. In our work, we will not just talk through the problems, concerns, or challenges bringing you to therapy. We will also focus on practical tools that can help change how you experience those situations and support you in moving toward a healthier version of yourself.

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.
In my approach to counseling, I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as the main approaches to counseling. It is important that each client's needs are met through their counseling experience, therefore, counseling is not limited to the above approaches. Biblical principles are also used as an approach to counseling. Counseling will be provided to a diverse population of individuals. Optimum health and healing is possible if you are willing to do the work! Be Willing!

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Ypsilanti
Searching for therapists in Ypsilanti starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want care for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to work on. A therapist’s profile can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for specific life stages.
Ypsilanti has a smaller local therapist market than nearby metro areas, so virtual appointments can expand your options while still keeping care with a therapist licensed in Michigan. You may prefer an in-person office near central Ypsilanti, the Depot District, Riverside, College Park, or another nearby area, or you may want the flexibility of virtual sessions from home. To narrow your search, compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with clients.
Therapy in Ypsilanti can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists, check your insurance details to confirm coverage for your specific plan and location, see estimated session costs before you book, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can review profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
