Licensed Clinical Therapist
Tafazzul Hussain
It is my firm belief that I will do everything possible to ensure that I create a friendly and non-judgmental atmosphere where the child, adolescent, and family feel free to express themselves and share their experiences in a relaxed manner. It should be understood that therapy should be comfortable, cooperative, and motivating, providing a platform in which people can process their issues at their own pace and have the tools required to grow and heal.
Through my clinical experience, I have worked with individuals and families dealing with various issues, including trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, behavior problems, loss and grief, and transition. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Empowerment-Based Counseling, and Grief Counseling interventions are some of the techniques used to help the client gain insights about themselves and learn how to manage challenging feelings.
My therapeutic approach will be compassionate, strength-based, and individually focused, employing interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness techniques, Trauma-Informed Care, and Supportive Therapy.

Baby Thomas
I believe therapy should be a place where clients feel safe, supported, and truly understood. With more than 25 years of experience in social work, education, and mental health, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, and families from many different backgrounds and life experiences. My goal is to help clients feel empowered while building the tools and confidence needed to navigate life’s challenges.
I specialize in working with children and teens experiencing anxiety, behavioral concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, family stress, school-related challenges, and life transitions. My background in school social work, special education, and outpatient mental health allows me to provide individualized care that supports both emotional well-being and personal growth.
My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and culturally sensitive. I work collaboratively with clients, families, schools, and caregivers to create meaningful treatment goals while helping clients strengthen coping skills, improve communication, build resilience, and develop healthier relationships.
I am especially passionate about supporting children with special needs, behavioral challenges, and emotional difficulties. I strive to create a calm and welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and supported in making lasting, positive change.

Licensed Clinical Therapist
Marshall Burns
I am a Limited Licensed Master Social Worker (LLMSW) and earned my Master of Social Work degree from Michigan State University. My professional experience includes working with children in school settings as well as adults in inpatient mental health environments throughout the state of Michigan.
I believe therapy is most effective when clients feel empowered and actively involved in their own growth and healing process. One philosophy that guides my work is that “the client is the navigator, and we are the passengers who may offer direction when needed.” I strive to create a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable exploring life’s challenges at their own pace.
My therapeutic approach is individualized and strengths-based, drawing from several evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy,
Systems Theory, and psychotherapy techniques. I work to help clients better understand themselves, recognize their strengths, develop healthy coping strategies, and build confidence in their ability to navigate difficult situations.
I look forward to partnering with individuals from all backgrounds and creating a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where meaningful growth and healing can occur.

Licensed Clinical Therapist
Secret Mitchell
If you are looking for a safe, supportive space to talk about the things that may be holding you back in life, you are welcome here. This is a place to explore what you are facing at your own pace, gain clarity, and move forward with intention and hope.
My primary focus is to encourage, teach, and empower individuals as they work to overcome past trauma, navigate daily life stressors, and move toward the life they have always hoped for. I have experience supporting individuals dealing with insecurities, relationship challenges, trauma-related symptoms, domestic and family violence, anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use concerns, women’s issues, life transitions, existential crises, and discovering one’s purpose.
I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to each individual, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), mindfulness-based techniques, motivational interviewing, supportive talk therapy, and faith-based, Christ-centered counseling when desired.
My goal is to walk alongside you as a guide in the healing of your mind, body, and spirit—helping you embrace your authenticity and experience spiritual and emotional freedom.
There is hope, and you deserve the space to heal at your own pace. Most importantly, it’s okay not to be okay. You don’t have to walk this journey alone—let’s take the next steps together toward meaningful and lasting healing.

Licensed Clinical Therapist
Gia Jones
I am a deeply empathetic therapist who believes therapy should help you do more than survive — it should help you feel alive, connected, and present in your own life again. I work from the belief that healing is possible for everyone, especially those who have spent a long time in survival mode, feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of themselves.
I provide therapy to children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you don’t have to hold everything together on your own. My approach is person-centered and collaborative, meaning I meet you where you are emotionally and move at a pace that feels safe and meaningful for you.
I bring experience from both outpatient therapy and crisis intervention, which allows me to support clients through a wide range of concerns — from anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions, to moments of acute emotional distress. My background in crisis work has shaped a calm, grounding presence and a strong focus on safety, compassion, and emotional regulation during difficult moments.
At the heart of my work is empathy and genuine human connection. I understand how exhausting it can be to constantly push through life while feeling emotionally numb, stuck, or disconnected from yourself. In therapy, we work not only to reduce distress, but to reconnect you with your identity, your values, and the parts of you that may have been buried by stress, trauma, or responsibility.
My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed and strengths-based, integrating CBT, DBT-informed skills, motivational interviewing, and family systems perspectives. I help clients build coping skills, increase emotional awareness, improve communication, and create healthier patterns — while also exploring deeper themes such as boundaries, self-worth, and relationships.
I am especially passionate about helping clients move beyond “just getting through the day” and toward a life that feels more intentional, fulfilling, and alive. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, reflect, and learn how to live with more clarity, compassion, and purpose.
I am committed to ongoing clinical supervision and case consultation, ensuring ethical, thoughtful, and effective care for the clients I serve.

Licensed Clinical Therapist
Liz Smith
I provide a supportive, compassionate space for adolescents and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, or relationship challenges, and often feel pressure to “hold it together” while struggling internally.
My approach to therapy is supportive, collaborative, and practical. I believe insight matters—but so does action. Together, we focus on building emotional awareness, strengthening coping skills, and creating realistic strategies you can actually use in your daily life. I aim to provide a space that feels safe, non-judgmental, and honest, while also gently challenging patterns that keep you stuck.
I work with adolescents who may be struggling with emotional regulation, stress, or adjusting to changes at school or home, as well as adults facing burnout, anxiety, stress, depression, or identity and purpose questions. I also enjoy supporting parents, caregivers, and helping professionals who often put others first and are learning how to care for themselves.
Therapy with me is not about judgment or quick fixes; it’s about creating safety, building insight, and helping you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and intention.
