Find a therapist in Michigan — covered by insurance

I'm Ali, a Registered Art Therapist and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Missouri, Michigan, Ohio, and California! My practice predominately focuses on the issues unique to Millennials and Gen Z, including later in life neurodivergent diagnoses, healing from trauma, finding and maintaining secure connections/ relationships, being first persons in families to reject traditional paths, and navigating adulthood/ becoming secure in self in an uncertain future.

I both identify and work within the LGBTQIA+, kink, and non-traditional relationship communities. My practice is a not just a safe space. It is a place to readily meet challenge, growth, and self-understanding. My goal is help you achieve what you want for yourself, whatever that may look like within the context of you. Together we will find solutions, happies and crappies, some tears, successes, and healing.

My name is Abby Berkey. I am a trauma therapist. I have been working for over 20 years in the field. I am also a certified personal trainer and a nutrition coach.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Michigan, specializing in rekindling the connection between the mind and body using somatic (whole body) approaches including Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic Breathwork, and Somatic Shadow Work. My specialization is working with individuals to heal anxiety, trauma, stress, and depressive symptoms. Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, confused? I am here to help!

I specialize in providing trauma focused therapy solutions for people of all ages. I've been working with children, individuals and families who have experienced abuse, neglect, loss and complex trauma for over a decade. I earned my Master of Social Work Degree at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor where I graduated with honors. My relationship with my clients is built on the four pillars of healing: safety, trust, support and hope.

Career counseling focused on mental health in the workplace is my specialization. I help college students, job seekers and working professionals who are feeling burned out, anxious, or overwhelmed reconnect with their strengths and bring their best selves to work or school. Many of my clients juggle high expectations, relationship challenges at work or college, and ongoing stress—and feel stuck, frustrated, or held back by negative self-talk. Together, we work on recognizing these patterns, challenging self-imposed limitations, and building healthier, more confident ways of thinking.

Thanks for visiting!

I completed my graduate degree from Liberty University in Lynchburg VA in 2010 to pursue a heart passion of mine. Journeying with those just like you, though some of lifes most complicated and uncertain times. I thoroughly enjoy walking with others as together we find clarity and you begin to take steps towards finding increased peace and harmony within. In a world so chaotic and loud, I believe this is something that each person can obtain! I work with individuals 18 years and up. It would be my pleasure to begin a journey with you when you are ready to take the next steps.
