Therapists for college students near Ann Arbor, MI
Getting started can be overwhelming. My goal is to help you feel as comfortable as possible so we can go at your pace. I specialize in working with clients with anxiety, ADHD, trauma, and addiction. Many of my clients have tried to cope with difficult life changes by pushing their feelings away or finding short-term coping mechanisms that serve as a distraction. My role is to help people listen to and manage their emotions without feeling overwhelmed or ruled by them. Being personally in recovery from alcohol helps me understand and empathize with what you’re going through because I’ve probably been there too. I like to break down clinical approaches to collaboratively determine the best fit for each person’s unique goals. I incorporate elements of neurobiology, cognitive behavioral therapy, and schema work to help people better understand themselves and make meaningful changes in their lives. If you're not sure what you're looking for yet, that's okay! Feel free to reach out to set up an introductory phone call to see if we're a good fit.

Hi! My name is Matt and I am a limited licensed professional counselor. I have been working as a counselor since 2022 and have been working in the mental health field since 2016. My first counseling job was at Central Michigan University and I worked with clients with a variety of concerns such as life adjustments, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, trauma, etc. Before anything else, I'd first try to get to know you, your circumstances, your presenting problem, and your strengths before we focus on how we can make the best use of our time together, whether that be space to process, thinking of solutions, or something else. If we don't happen to be a match, that's ok! I work with a team of other mental health professionals who may be available to take on new clients as well.
I’m a firm believer that we are not meant to do life alone. Whether you’re adjusting to parenthood, grieving a loss, or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or OCD—it’s my honor to provide you with space to simply be human. I don’t hold the belief that it’s my job to fix your problems. Even if it were, I never could—because I am not the expert on your life. You are. And while I have many valuable tools and perspectives to offer, I believe the most meaningful thing I can give you is space. Space to think. Space to express your thoughts. Space to sit with your feelings and actually feel them. It is in this kind of space that I believe transformative healing happens—where you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and what you need, of which burdens you can lay down, and which tools and resources you can pick up. In this space, I offer evidence-based therapy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, The Art of Holding, and Exposure and Response Prevention. It’s hard when your thoughts feel scary or when life changes bring more fear than joy. You don’t have to pretend you’re okay or figure it out alone. Whatever you’re navigating, I can help you develop skills to reduce distress, reconnect with yourself, and feel more grounded and whole.

I practice from an insight oriented, relational, and multicultural approach tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual I work with. My priority as a therapist is to create a warm, collaborative, non-judgmental space where you can work through your concerns and make the changes in your life you desire. People seek therapy for a number of reasons, perhaps to alleviate symptoms or distress, improve self-esteem, or address relationship issues. In my experience, symptoms often “mark the spot” of a deeper themes you may be grappling with and I aim to assist you uncover what the root of your concerns may be. Often therapy helps increase self-awareness, develop deeper understanding of how past experiences may be influencing the present, and provides an opportunity to learn tools to address problematic behavior(s). Having spent the majority of my training and professional life working in university counseling centers, I am passionate about working with college and graduate students. I completed my pre-doctoral internship at Pace University in New York City and my postdoctoral fellowship at University of Chicago Student Counseling Service where I gained experience working with life-transitions, relationship issues, eating disorders, and sexual trauma. Other areas of interest include identity development and intersectionality, family dynamics, anxiety, and stress management.

Establishing a strong working relationship is essential to positive therapeutic outcomes. I firmly believe that therapy works best when you match well on a personal level. Adjusting to college is hard. There's a lot of pressure to do well academically, socially, personally...and it can be helpful to have an unbiased person to vent to and talk about what you're struggling with. I specialize in treating individuals struggling with primary and secondary trauma. I use a multifaceted approach to therapy to meet my clients where they are and to suit their individual needs, whether trauma is a main focus or not.

My path started by working in alternative high schools, and then as a career counselor in management and business development roles for a few universities and military populations. I have over 18 years of experience working in education, career development, and mental health. My experience growing up in Flint, Michigan, and being the first in my family to attend college, shaped how I view and overcome challenges. I specialize in support for working professionals, especially teachers, nurses, and students with anxiety or depression who are struggling in their careers, education, or relationships. Many feel stuck, burnt out, angry, and overwhelmed. Chronic stress makes it hard for them to connect with their instructors, bosses, and peers. Time management is an issue and constantly trying to keep up. Some may prefer to be alone, even though it leads to ruminating over traumatic work experiences and substance use. My clients have demanding jobs and/or class schedules, and are highly trained and accustomed to solving problems. However, no one is immune to the long-term effects of stress and trauma. I have over 18 years working in counseling, higher education, and career development. My communication style is warm, yet solution-focused, often encouraging you to think from the end, build your resilience, and focus on the future. Some clients get what they need to make a positive change in 6-8 sessions. Others enjoy my long-term support to address trauma. First time trying talk therapy? Congrats on taking the first step. I value confidentiality and understand the college campus and workplace cultures. You do not have to go through this alone. Let's get you out of survival mode and start to thrive. Reach out to schedule your complimentary 15-minute consultation today. I look forward to talking with you.

Hi, I'm Tarah Hipple-Thomas. I offer individual therapy for adults navigating the long-term effects of trauma. I know how deeply trauma can shape the nervous system, relationships, and sense of self, and I also know that healing is possible, even after years of surviving in silence. My clients are often thoughtful, resilient people who have tried for years to “just move on” or “push through” their pain. Many are high functioning on the outside, but inside feel stuck, exhausted, overwhelmed with emotions or thoughts, or disconnected. Some experience flashbacks or nightmares, while others carry a vague sense that something isn’t right. It’s common for my clients to describe feeling overwhelmed with sudden emotion, or feeling "flat", like they're not feeling at all. Many of my clients live with complex PTSD, dissociative symptoms, or formal dissociative disorders, including DID. I welcome all parts to therapy (yes, even the ones that are unsure, skeptical, or afraid). My goal is to create a space where every part of your system can feel seen and supported. Therapy with me is relational and collaborative. I’ll be by your side as you build trust in yourself, learn new ways to cope, and begin to reconnect with parts that you may have lost touch with along the way. Healing from trauma doesn’t mean forgetting or pretending the past didn’t happen. It means reclaiming your life in the present, moment by moment, with compassion, clarity, and courage. If this resonates with you, I’d be honored to walk with you on your healing journey.
