Adam Labarthe

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and Certified Advanced Alcohol & Drug Counselor (CAADC) with a warm, inquisitive, and solution-oriented approach. I earned my bachelor’s in Communications from Franciscan University in Ohio and my master’s in Social Work from the University of Michigan.

I have extensive experience supporting adults with substance use, anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions, and I also work with adolescents. I value integrating faith and spirituality into therapy when clients want that included, and I focus on helping clients turn their goals into practical steps to create meaningful, lasting change.

I take a warm, inquisitive, and solution-focused approach to therapy. Together, we explore life, uncover the root causes of what’s holding you back, and turn your goals into actionable strategies you can use in daily life. I use evidence-based tools like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing, while also making space for faith or spirituality if that’s meaningful to you. My goal is to make therapy practical and transformative, helping you overcome challenges and create real progress toward the life you want.

In our first session, we’ll get to know you as a whole person, your experiences, goals, and what’s been holding you back. I create a warm, supportive space where you can explore challenges openly, uncover root causes, and start taking real steps toward change. Together, we’ll identify practical strategies to apply in your daily life and discuss how faith or spirituality can support your growth if that’s meaningful to you. By the end, you’ll leave with a sense of clarity, direction, and a practical first step toward the life you want.
