Therapists for college students near Ann Arbor, MI

If you are facing anxiety, depression, or having difficulty managing stressors, you are not alone. You have survived experiences no one should ever have to face. They have left you feeling depleted, broken, and worn out. You need a reminder of your dignity and resilience and some coping skills for dealing with this very challenging time. I'm here to help. I work with folks facing transitions across the lifespan. I have 25 years experience working with tweens and teens, first as a teacher, then as a counselor. I also love working with young adults as well -- especially those exploring their identity and sense of purpose. You have already taken the brave first step to consider counseling. Give me a call if you are ready to feel seen, heard, and supported as a person worthy of dignity who is ready to discover your best self in a difficult world.

Welcome! I’m so glad we’ve crossed paths. My name is Hayley, and my pronouns are she/her/hers. I have my master's degree in social work (LLMSW) from Grand Valley State University, where I also received my bachelor's degree in social work (BSW). Because everyone’s journey is unique, I will meet you where you're at and walk alongside you to provide the support you seek and deserve. My therapeutic style is warm, validating, supportive, empowering, and person-centered. I truly believe that having a safe and validating space to share our truth is so healing. The approaches I may implement in practice are elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, humanistic/client-centered, and strengths based. I specialize in anxiety, stress management, life transitions, LGBTQIA+, women’s issues, individuals involved in the justice system, pet end of life planning, and pet grief/loss. When I’m out of the office I find joy in spending time with my 5 cats. They are all rescues with unique stories and goofy personalities. I also have two chinchillas, and a general love for rodents. I believe animals are so healing. I know mine have saved me and brought me peace in so many ways. I also find joy in listening to my vinyl collection, watercolor painting, and looking for rocks and fossils along the shores of Lake Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Thank you for being here! I look forward to creating a validating therapeutic space for you that is accepting, healing, and empowering.

We are a group practice in Shelby Township MI. We accept clients in person and virtually for individual, family, and couples counseling. We are a warm and friendly office that is never judgmental and will meet you where you are in life. Open to everyone who is seeking help. We are also able to bill most insurances through the practice and we are a text friendly office. We also accept most HMO plans through Medicaid. In person and telehealth offered at this time.

I work with college students and adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, academic pressures, relationships, and life transitions. I take a collaborative and supportive approach, tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals. Some clients choose to explore EMDR, and I’m trained to use it when it fits, but many find our sessions helpful through conversation, reflection, and practical coping strategies. I aim to create a space where students feel understood and empowered, whether you’re struggling with burnout, uncertainty about the future, or past experiences that continue to affect your life. I accept BCBS of Michigan and BCN and offer telehealth sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays to make therapy accessible and easy to fit into a busy schedule.

I am a licensed professional counselor at LifeStance Health and I work fully online!

-- Psychological Evaluations for accommodations and legal issues -- Medication Management

My primary goal in therapy is to create a nonjudgmental, safe space for expressing feelings and emotions. I am deeply committed to helping children aged 8 and older with issues related to school, peers, anxiety, executive functioning, and self-esteem through play therapy. Additionally, I enjoy supporting young adults as they navigate life transitions, depression, and anxiety. My approach is warm and compassionate, focusing on engaging children creatively (slime, books, games, etc!!) to foster enthusiasm and interest in their therapeutic journey. ​ I am a dedicated therapist passionate about enhancing the well-being of children, adolescents, and young adults. Each client I have worked with has enriched my understanding of resilience, courage, and the importance of human connections. ​ I am eager to use my skills to help young individuals not only overcome challenges but also thrive. If you’re looking for a therapist who truly cares about the well-being of young minds, please contact me.

College and young adulthood can be an exciting time, but it can also bring pressure, uncertainty, and significant life changes. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed by school, struggling with anxiety or depression, or finding yourself questioning who you are and what you want your life to look like. You may be navigating academic pressure, difficult family relationships, changing friendships, or the challenge of becoming more independent. You don’t have to navigate it all on your own. I work primarily with young adults experiencing anxiety, depression, college-related stress, performance anxiety, perfectionism, eating disorders, body image concerns, and family or relationship struggles. I understand that these challenges often overlap—academic or performance pressure can affect self-worth, perfectionism can make you feel like nothing is ever enough, and depression can make everyday responsibilities feel overwhelming. I also work with individuals who are struggling with their relationship with food, exercise, or their body. Together, we can explore the emotions, beliefs, and experiences underlying these concerns while working toward a healthier relationship with yourself. Family relationships can also become more complicated during young adulthood as you navigate independence, boundaries, expectations, and communication. Therapy can provide a space to better understand these patterns, strengthen relationships, and develop confidence in expressing your needs. My approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized. I believe therapy should be a space where you can be honest about what you're experiencing without judgment. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply unsure of where to start, we can work together to better understand what you're going through and build tools to help you feel more confident and connected in your life.

Many college students feel overwhelmed trying to balance school, relationships, family expectations, and their own wellbeing. You might be dealing with anxiety, burnout, past trauma, ADHD challenges, or simply feeling stuck and unsure of your next step. You don’t have to handle it alone. I’m Tammy Wilson, founder of Resilience Counseling & Play Therapy, a group practice with a team of therapists and counseling interns who work with children, teens, and adults. I primarily work with adults and children who want a supportive place to process life stress, difficult experiences, and major transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each person. Some students prefer talking things through, while others benefit from experiential approaches such as EMDR, cognitive-behavioral strategies, or sandtray therapy to explore thoughts and emotions that are hard to put into words. Our goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can build resilience, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.

Hi! I am an EMDR-Certified and AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist with a specialization in working with college students (both "traditional" and "non-traditional"). I deeply enjoy getting to work with folks who are looking to address challenges they might be experiencing in their relationships: their relationships to partners, friends, family members, and importantly, to themselves. Many life experiences may lead us to feel in disconnection with ourselves: whether you have experienced relational or institutional trauma, are navigating multiple life transitions (e.g. beginning a new degree, receiving a new medical diagnosis), or are exploring social, sexual or gender identity, I am here to help you reconnect with yourself and take steps forward in your healing journey.

Do you feel weighed down by grief and sadness? Are you feeling disconnected from yourself, your surroundings, or your relationships? Anxiety and depression can be like a thick fog that seems impossible to lift. My goal is to help guide you through that fog and find relief from emotional pain. I offer a safe and supportive therapeutic environment that acknowledges and respects your emotional journey. My area of expertise is providing support to persons struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, life transitions, and family conflict. I have been working with adults, children, and families to help them navigate traumatic experiences in the social work field for the past seven years. Together, we will work on developing a more compassionate inner dialogue, and healthier coping mechanisms that will help you live more authentically. I commend you on taking the first steps toward healing, and I am here to support you.

I use an integrative approach where I am able to meet you where you are at with compassion, curiosity, and encouragement to evaluate and tailor evidence-based treatments to fit your needs. My desire is to partner with you in exploring your story and help you experience healing. I have enjoyed working with people from a variety of life stages from adolescence through late adulthood. I love working with those who are experiencing grief and loss, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship difficulties, planning for the future, and those who might just feel "stuck". In 2025, I received training in cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) from the Stanford Sleep Health and Insomnia Program. I consider it a privilege to sit with you as you share your life with me. My hope is that I can create a safe place for you to explore your depths and deepest parts while feeling supported and accepted. I would love to come alongside of you in the midst of your journey and witness your growth.

Are you feeling anxious, nervous, or overwhelmed? Are you confused, sad, or not able to enjoy your life? Do you feel like your situation is hopeless and cannot get better? If so, I do not want you to believe that you have to live your life this way. I help people gain control over their symptoms, understand why they feel the way they do, increase their confidence, and enjoy their lives. I describe myself as a CBT Psychotherapist; meaning I want to help you understand why you are having symptoms and develop a plan to recover from the cause of those symptoms. I want to help you start getting better now. katelynn@rdtcounseling.com 434-522-1082 Currently, I provide online counseling to residents in Michigan, Virginia, and Florida.

Currently accepting new clients with Friday afternoon/evening and Saturday all day availability! In my therapy practice, I offer a compassionate and warm approach that doesn't feel like you are talking to someone who has it all together. As someone who has been there too, I offer you an authentic approach to learning skills that can help bring you peace and understanding towards yourself. Let me help you learn how to be kinder to yourself and move towards curiosity and understanding of your specific unique needs and how to communicate those needs in your relationships. Sometimes our lives can feel like we are on a roller coaster full of highs and lows. Often when we feel stuck in the chaos, we turn to things that relieve comfort temporarily but end up hurting us in the long run. If you are ready to understand why it is you do the things you do and how you can relieve your pain without hurting yourself, I can help. Living with mental health symptoms is a battle that not everyone understands. I encourage you to reach out if you are desiring someone who will walk alongside you as you discover who you are in a safe setting. I look forward to watching you transform into who you've always dreamed of becoming.

Life can be challenging at times. Sometimes the guidance of a professional can provide you the clarity needed to help you move forward. I work with individuals seeking treatment for depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, substance use, codependency and life transitions as well as with families wanting to improve their relationship with one another. I have 25 years of experience working with families, specifically those dealing with estrangement, substance use and mood disorders. My theoretical framework is grounded in structural and internal family systems, lifespan development and attachment theory; interventions I use are framed within the context of feminist and gender theory. As your therapist I will strive to provide a supportive, accepting and collaborative space that helps you achieve lasting change and resilience. Reach out to me for a free consultation to see how I can help.

In a world that constantly pulls your attention in a thousand directions, it’s easy to feel like you’re drifting through college rather than actually living it.

When life becomes unmanageable due to a variety of circumstances, who or what do we tend to turn to? Anxiety, depression, and traumas mask over our true selves, shielding us from who we want to be. These masks also protect us from the fear that lies with working on these debilitating issues, more likely than not we pick up unhealthy habits and behaviors to help us cope. A lot of times we do not realize how this affects not just us, but any relationship we are in (personal, business, school, etc.) during these times we are struggling. It is important to know that we are not alone in this difficult journey. I am here for you in a compassionate and empathetic way as we work together to identify those roadblocks that are currently keeping you from ‘being’; helping you to overcome them or to better manage them the next time we face that same barrier, because we almost always do! I work with a variety of treatment modalities that are unique to each individual’s needs and that help us achieve the best results for you in your healing. ​Now, some things about me! I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from the Michigan School of Psychology in 2018. Since 2013 however, my clinical background includes working as part of a multidisciplinary team in a rehabilitation setting providing individual psychotherapy with individuals diagnosed with traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I also have extensive experience in administering and scoring neuropsychological test batteries in various outpatient settings including a hospital-based program as well as in the setting of a neurobehavioral rehabilitation program. I do look forward to meeting with you and creating a safe space where we can begin the journey of healing. I am accepting new clients, and am currently available via telehealth Monday - Thursday, 9am to 7pm.
