I personally know what it is like to struggle with anxiety and despair. I also know what it is like to go to therapy and to get little benefit from it. Many years ago, my emotional life changed dramatically when I stumbled onto resources that addressed my actual needs, and subsequently I devoted myself to a career promoting better mental health practices than I was taught when I was young.
Simply put, I teach people six interrelated psychological skills that you can use to transform your life. If all you want to do is explore the past, I'm not your best option - I focus on the past only enough to get us moving toward the future you want. I love to help people develop psychological superpowers that they can use to get the life they always hoped for, starting from where they are now and moving forward into a future they find worthwhile.
The idea of seeking therapy can be a scary process. That’s why as a therapist I always meet my clients where they are in their therapeutic process. I take on a team approach to let my client know that they aren’t alone. Together we can accomplish many obstacles.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding addiction therapists in Detroit starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, substance use recovery, relapse prevention, and behavioral concerns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, and harm reduction-informed care. You may also want a therapist who can coordinate with a prescriber or addiction consultant if medication management is part of your care plan.
Detroit offers a range of therapy options across neighborhoods and nearby communities, and virtual appointments can expand your choices if office location, commute, or scheduling matters. Recovery is often not a straight path, so it can help to look for a therapist who describes a clear, respectful approach to addiction care and has experience with harm reduction frameworks. As you compare profiles, review whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and lists experience with the specific concerns you want to address.
Addiction therapy in Detroit can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for Detroit therapists who focus on addiction, review detailed bios, check insurance fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
