Therapists for college students near Ann Arbor, MI
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths.” –Elizabeth Kubler-Ross I sincerely believe that you are the expert on your life. I strive to create an environment where you feel safe enough to be vulnerable and allow me to partner with you so that we can move forward together. There are times when life’s challenges become too much to bear on your own. Allow me to partner with you as together we find our way out of the depths. You don’t have to do this alone. With over 8 years of experience, I use a strengths-based perspective and an eclectic approach to help my clients work through life’s hardest challenges: serious illness (chronic or terminal), grief and loss, anxiety, and depression.
I believe that everyone is unique and holds their own wisdom, and that is a good thing. We all have different walks of life that we can share with others and have others share with us. With this said, I believe in creating a mutual relationship of compassion and learning with clients. Therapy should be non-judgmental and understanding of others’ differences while appreciating and empowering one another. I understand that everyone’s experience is unique, and so I meet clients where they are at. I believe in providing an open mind and a comfortable place for clients to be themselves as we work together to meet their goals. As we create a therapeutic relationship, I will work to help end the cycle of negative feelings by providing the space to open up about the deeper parts of life that bring these emotions to the surface. I will utilize the tools I have to promote a new frame of mind and coping strategies that fit the client’s needs. Engaging in therapy can feel very vulnerable. Being open with someone new can be tough, but know that you are not alone. I’ll maintain the same openness that I want for my clients and make it a priority to keep a comfortable space so we can be present in the moment. Everyone deserves the space to be who they are, process their feelings, and work on what they need. My goal is to be the support system in this journey!
I admire the strength clients show in sharing their vulnerabilities and being self-reflective, so that they can live fulfilling and rich lives – I am privileged to support that growth and to be let into your life for the time that we work together. The therapeutic alliance, or relationship between you and I, is the most important factor in the therapy process. I will create a warm and accepting environment, free of judgments, where you are able to share your vulnerabilities at your own pace. Using an integrative approach, I will collaborate with you to gain insight into your life and create long lasting, positive change. I hope to equip you with enough tools that the world will seem brighter and you will feel ready to tackle life’s obstacles.

You are not alone! I want to thank you and congratulate you for coming to my page. Therapy is not an easy task and it takes sincere courage to seek out the help that you need. Whether your goals are big or small, together we can surely find a path in therapy that fits your needs. I have found that therapy is not a 'one size fits all' which is why I take a more integrative approach to helping clients. Right now I am offering services both in person and online. Available Monday-Friday during the day with extended hours on some weeknights. Please contact me for further information. My focuses lie in sexual abuse, trauma/PTSD, eating disorders (or eating related issues) and grief. I am also well versed in other areas such as general mood disorders (like anxiety and depression), borderline personality disorder, stress or burnout, school/work problems, amongst many others. I am specifically trained in EMDR, CBT, and CBT-E. Taking the first step towards therapy can seem super intimidating, but you don't need to have everything figured out - give me a call!
Greetings! My goal is to provide a safe, nurturing style of therapy. The most important predictor of success in therapy is the relationship between therapist and client. It is that the client feels the therapist cares about them. We call this the “therapeutic alliance”. I specialize in the areas of body image, couples counseling, perfectionism, addiction, and mood disorders. I offer Christian counseling if a client would like it. I utilize CBT, Motivational Interviewing, art therapy, DBT, all with a warm, compassionate approach.
Collaborative Health Center is a group practice with 17 clinicians with diverse backgrounds, specialties, training, and interests. We believe in offering an environment that most effectively nurtures growth and healing in our clients. We treat children, adolescents, families, and adults. While our practitioners' trainings are generalized, we have specialties in the areas of anxiety, depression, adolescents, marriage and family therapy, substance abuse, and eating disorders. Some clients come to us knowing exactly what they want to work on, others come only with a general sense that they would like things (job, relationships, mood, etc.) to be better, and many somewhere in between. We would love the opportunity to partner with you to make tomorrow better than today. Please visit us at: www.collaborativehealthcenter.com!

Hello, I look forward to seeing how I can help you! Navigating school can be challenging. There can be so many things to try to manage in addition to classwork. Getting help to manage it all is part of being an authentic person sometimes. If you need some space to figure things out, get some support, or find ways to help manage your mental health, I want to help. I am here to provide a safe space to work on being who you want to be.
Welcome! I'm Dr. Jasmine Easley, a trauma based therapist helping teens and women to heal trauma through mindful presence. Have you experienced trauma in the past and never got a chance to really talk about it? Do you feel like your mind is occupied with so many thoughts at once? Or maybe you've lost interest in things, and feel your body battling with unwavering emotions that you don't know how to control. Healing is a journey, but if you're ready to take a step back into those past experiences, then you're in the right space. This is your time to confront those thoughts and emotions, and learn healthy skills to address them. If you reside in Georgia or Michigan, I'm here to help you heal through traumatic experiences by fostering a state of mindfulness. I work from a holistic approach, which means along with talk therapy to address past trauma, I will also teach you skills to manage and reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. We will also focus on habits around sleep, nutrition, physical health, and self-care. I look forward to working with you!
I work with children, adolescents, and young adults. I am an MSU grad myself, and currently have both present and former clients who are students at State. I am offering short-term crises-type services at no charge to students affected by the recent tragic events on campus. Since I also have a busy practice in Novi, which is about an hour away from MSU, I would need to hold our sessions virtually. I have about 30 years experience as a therapist, and I would like to be of help during this very difficult time.

Welcome! I am an LMSW with five years of experience in the SE Michigan region; however, as a telehealth practitioner I am able to see clients in all of Michigan. My focus is on sexual and emotional health and wellness, particularly in the LGBTQIA+ community. I strive for an open and accepting practice where we work together to help you become the best version of yourself.
Have you been feeling overwhelmed with things in your life? Have you been feeling like your coping skills aren't working any longer? Have you been drinking alcohol or using drugs to make it through the day? If you said yes to any of these questions, then you are the closest you have ever been to changing your life. Being able to recognize that things aren't how you want them to be takes a lot of strength, courage and insight. Often suffering happens in silence. That is why I believe the way to get control of your life back is by sharing openly, and honestly about your experience without judgment Due to my own personal and professional experiences, I have extensive training and experience working with people experiencing life changes, trauma, substance use, addiction and ADHD. My style of therapy is supportive, yet at the same time I am willing to challenge you and kindly call you out. I try to keep it real with the people I work with. Everyone deserves to feel valued, recognized, and heard, including YOU. I truly believe reaching out for help is the strongest, and most courageous action someone can do. If you are looking for someone who is going to actively help you find ways to improve your situation, then reach out to me. I can't promise that puns and dad jokes wont be used as well!
Mental health issues are often most noticeable in our relationships. Clients I work with tend to experience anxiety, overwhelming emotions, and self-esteem issues that feel especially present when they are with others. This can impact your dating life, your ability to find and maintain friendships, and your satisfaction in longer term romantic and familial relationships. I help clients identify painful patterns in their lives, then dig deeper to understand where they are coming from. After working together, clients feel more in control of their emotions and relationships, which leads to a greater sense of calm in their lives.
Finding joy starts with a single step, and reaching out is one of the bravest steps you can take. My role as your therapist is to guide you toward rediscovering the light within yourself—your joy, your strength, and your unique potential. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, as we gently untangle the patterns and barriers keeping you from living fully. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, I’m here to remind you that healing and growth are possible. Using a strength-based approach rooted in empathy and tailored techniques, I’ll support you as you take intentional steps toward the life you deserve—a life filled with clarity, confidence, and joy.
I have a strong desire to help others feel understood, to confront both joy and pain, and to support others in not only surviving, but reviving and thriving through this one wild and precious life. I have been told I specialize in “you go girl therapy”, and I tend to agree. I want to provide you with support, empathy, a shoulder to cry on, and to join you in celebration dances as you work to meet your goals. Can’t wait to work with you, Mama! Navigating my own path through the great adventure of motherhood has been the greatest and most challenging journey of my life. I understand the pull that mothers feel in so many different directions, and the guilt, pressure, and overwhelming joy that comes with it. Before beginning my journey to becoming a licensed clinician, I worked in career services assisting students and adults in discovering their career paths and meeting their goals. Like many moms, kiddos sparked a change in my own career path. Now, I am able to work with clients moving through their own career transitions, defining success, exploring the tax of motherhood in the corporate world, the anxiety and/or depression around work and work-life, and the unique challenges that come with being both a unique individual and a kick-ass mom. My experience counseling moms, dads, expecting parents, couples, and those in the ecosystem of family, such as grandparents and caregivers, has solidified my personal belief that there is no one way to be a great caregiver. Let’s find what works for you, brings you joy, and helps you to realize your full potential during this wonderful, wearing, and wild moment in time.
