Therapist

Virtual • Kalamazoo, MI


I offer support and skills to those exploring identity, intimacy, or relational complexity—whether in gender, sexuality, kink, or deocolonized relationships. They may be sitting with grief, unraveling the impact of trauma, or feeling the weight of past experiences in their body. They long for connection but struggle with vulnerability, trust, or belonging. Some feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, while others are questioning the stories they’ve been told about who they are. They seek a space where they can be seen without judgment, process their experiences, and make sense of the systems shaping their lives.

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


Hello, and welcome. My name is Jessica Banford, and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker / Clinical Social Worker with experience providing support in both emergency and outpatient mental health settings. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for change. I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Indiana Wesleyan University and my professional background includes working in hospital emergency departments, where I have completed behavioral health assessments, crisis intervention, and care coordination for individuals experiencing acute mental health concerns. This experience has strengthened my ability to remain calm, supportive, and solution-focused during difficult moments. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, emotional dysregulation, and life stressors such as relationship difficulties, financial stress, and transitions. I also worked a outpatient community health center providing therapy to all populations including all ages. I also have experience supporting adolescents and young adults, as well as collaborating with families and support systems. My approach to therapy is client-centered and strengths-based. I often incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), focusing on building coping skills, improving emotional regulation, and increasing overall resilience. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, respected, and supported. I look forward to working together to help you reach your goals and improve your overall well-being.

Emotional exhaustion can look like functioning.

You may be the person others depend on while quietly feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. At Milton’s Place Counseling, therapy offers a supportive space to slow down, process what you are carrying, and identify practical next steps. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and major life transitions. You do not have to wait until you are in crisis to seek support.

If anxiety, depression, grief, or ongoing stress are making daily life feel harder, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with adolescents, adults, and families who feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Many parents seek support when they notice changes in their teen’s mood, behavior, school functioning, or communication, while adults often come to therapy feeling exhausted, disconnected, or weighed down by life transitions and relationship stress.

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 Therapist in Michigan

Searching for therapists in Michigan starts with finding someone whose training, specialties, and approach match what you want help with. Across a state as large and varied as Michigan, available therapists and care options can differ between urban, suburban, and rural areas. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Michigan therapists, look for bios that name relevant specialties, therapy styles, or experience with the concerns you want to address.

Practical fit matters, too. A therapist in Detroit, Grand Rapids, or Lansing may offer in-person appointments, while virtual sessions can give you more options across Michigan. Consider appointment times, scheduling flexibility, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each profile can help you understand how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and describes their approach before you book.

The cost of Michigan therapy and counseling can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. Headway helps you find a therapist with your insurance, view estimated session costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
