Hi, I'm Marisel, a bilingual therapist offering sessions in English and Spanish. For over 10 years, social work has shaped how I see people, and earning my Master of
Social Work deepened my commitment to trauma informed, culturally responsive care. I specialize in supporting adolescents, adults, and seniors through anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, grief, and life transitions. In our space, you will feel heard, understood, and empowered.
Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in both Michigan and Missouri with over a decade of experience specializing in mental healthcare and addiction counseling. Additionally, I proudly served 10 active-duty years in the world's greatest U.S. Navy, from where I bring valuable insights as an honorable veteran. In my capacity as a Sailor, I served as both the Command Drug and Alcohol Program Advisor and as a Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Victim Advocate. Aside from work, I enjoy time with my husband, our 4 wonderful children, and loving on our pug, Miss Pearl.My areas of expertise include assisting clients in managing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, loss, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, depression, perimenopause, and serious mental illnesses. I specialize in addiction treatment in both substances and pornography/sexual addiction. I believe deeply that you are the expert of your own story, possessing numerous strengths that will empower you to overcome life's challenges.Taking the initial step toward a more fulfilling and purposeful life requires courage. My role is to support you throughout this journey, providing tailored guidance aligned with your individual goals and needs. Together, we will build insights and strategies to enhance your overall sense of purpose and well-being.
Life can be challenging from time to time, rather than continuing to struggle reach out and I can help you obtain the necessary skills to be confident in the decisions you make.
As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe therapy should meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. I often compare therapy to going to the gym: it is dedicated time to strengthen the way you understand and respond to your thoughts, emotions, relationships and behaviors.
My approach is warm, direct and collaborative. You can expect empathy, compassion and acceptance, along with thoughtful questions and practical strategies that help you make meaningful changes. Your needs, experiences and goals will guide our work together.
I support adults and adolescents experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, relationship challenges and major life transitions. I also have experience working with concerns related to sexual orientation, identity, suicide prevention, family dynamics and professional stress.
You do not have to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. We can start with what is happening right now and work together from there.
I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology and graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Missouri- St. Louis. I'm a licensed clinical therapist in Missouri and have spent the past 4 years working on an acute behavioral health unit seeing a wide range of patients with diverse backgrounds and symptomatic presentations. I have received certifications in trauma studies and believe in the psyche’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
I understand that finding the right psychiatric provider can feel overwhelming, and I believe you shouldn’t have to navigate your mental health journey alone. I provide compassionate, patient-centered care in a supportive and judgment-free environment. I take the time to listen to your concerns, understand your unique experiences, and work collaboratively with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your individual needs and goals.
Could you benefit from having a realistic, relaxed therapist who can help you achieve your goals to live your life to the fullest? Nice to meet you! I am an LCSW in the state of Missouri and I look forward to seeing what we can achieve together.
