Therapists for college students near Ann Arbor, MI
I specialize in adult depth-oriented Relational Psychoanalytic psychotherapy and a highly individualized approach to neuropsychological assessment for ADHD and Autism. As relational beings, we are instinctively wired for connection. It is within the context of relationship that we discover our potential for transformative change. I view therapy as a collaborative process of uncovering this potential by cultivating a deep, trusting relationship that becomes the vehicle for self-exploration and change. As a neurodivergent psychologist, I approach my work with a genuine sense of humility to create a space that is inclusive and affirming to all. I also feel that it is imperative to provide therapy that goes beyond merely treating symptoms. This is why I take a depth-oriented approach in order for us to discover the root causes of suffering, work through barriers, and move toward meaningful, long-lasting life changes. Drawing on a strengths-based approach, I customize my sessions to align with the uniqueness of each client. I believe in the importance of honoring the developmental, biological, sociocultural, and interpersonal parts of yourself to assist in the healing process. Using this comprehensive approach to treatment, I recognize that true well-being encompasses the integration of mental, emotional, and physical aspects of health.
We are a group practice made up of social workers, counselors and a psychologist. Each provider brings a set of unique skills and specialties to the group including feeding and eating concerns, body image issues, grief and loss and relationship concerns. We understand the complexities of attending a university and are here to assist you along the way!
Hello! My name is Nikole, and I provide specialized OCD therapy for college students and young adults. I also work with individuals with tics, skin-picking, hair pulling, and other related conditions. I may be a good fit for you if you struggle with intrusive unwanted thoughts, feel like you need follow specific mental or physical rituals to feel "ok," or avoid situations that trigger your fears. OCD often targets areas that feel shameful and can make people wonder if they are going crazy, but it is very treatable with the correct type of therapy. Clients who work with me are motivated to work hard on their therapy homework between sessions because they want to get better as fast as possible and get back to living their lives and pursuing their goals.

I believe that we all find ourselves in stuck places throughout our lives with confusion and overwhelm about where to go and what to do next. It is even more challenging when we are isolated in these places, not knowing who to trust or who will show up for us. This is where counseling comes in as a compassionate space that encourages the person to keep going and to know themselves more deeply in the process. I seek to provide a warm, empathetic, and sometimes directive and educational (education is empowering!) space that integrates evidenced-based modalities including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment, and Somatic/Body-focused therapies. I guide clients in noticing their natural strengths and in believing they have within themselves the ability to persist and grow. It is my belief that Jesus is the ultimate hope, healer, and companion through stuck places in life, but I meet clients where they are at in each session, whether they have no interest in faith or a lot. I value and honor the various cultural and spiritual identities with which a client may enter the room. When I’m not counseling, I like to be outside (think hiking, gardening, beach time), travel to new places with my husband and children, and participate in community at my church. It would be an honor to walk beside you as you keep going forward in life!

I have personally experienced medical issues with my own children, childhood trauma, and sports related injuries. I have also personally dealt with anxiety and depression. I've had my own therapy journey, so understand how you feel throughout the process. We will explore past and current experiences you've had, as well as options that will be beneficial for you. I have years of experience with clients with disabilities, autism, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I was one of the lead therapists assisting survivors of the Parkland School shooting. I strive for a comfortable, open environment where you can discuss any issue freely. We work together as a team on this journey!

I am non-judgmental and open-minded, and provide a safe space for my clients to do hard work. I'd love to help. I'd love to work with you and walk with you through the good times and the bad. You deserve to create a life that you enjoy and to feel proud of the goals that you have achieved!
Being surrounded by other college students doesn't always protect you from feeling lonely or overwhelmed. College and graduate school can feel very isolating and challenging. Starting therapy can be the first step toward realizing that you don't have to carry these challenges alone. I am currently accepting new clients at Mindful Counseling, Standale location and via Telehealth. I work with adults seeking support for anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, emotional regulation, separation and attachment anxiety, life transitions, and identity development. I especially enjoy working with college students and young adults as they navigate increased independence, adjusting to college, academic and career pressures, and discovering who they are. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season of life, greater clarity, or personal growth, I'm committed to partnering with you throughout the therapeutic process. My approach is integrative and individualized, drawing from CBT, DBT, trauma-informed care, mindfulness-based and somatic interventions, and person-centered therapy. I tailor treatment to each client's unique needs and developmental stage, with an emphasis on emotional regulation, self-awareness, resilience, and building on existing strengths. I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable being themselves. I believe therapy is a shared human experience where we work together toward understanding, healing, and growth. Meaningful change happens through connection, collaboration, and a strong therapeutic relationship. If you're interested in learning more or scheduling a consultation, I'd love to connect. The Standale office is especially convenient for students, just five minutes from GVSU's Allendale campus, within walking distance of the Laker Line stop, and about 15 minutes from GVSU's downtown campus and Aquinas College. I look forward to connecting with you!
I'm here to be a support and safe place as you face a time of many life transitions. I often mix a little bit of humor and gentle accountability into sessions. My clients are often seeking support to navigate relationships, identity, and future goals.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Michigan. My education consists of a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Writing from Grand Valley State University and a Master of Arts in Counselor Education, Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Michigan University. My professional experience to date encompasses work with children, adolescents, young adults, women, men, families, couples, and groups. My clinical practice has spanned diverse settings, such as private practice, community mental health agencies, and university counseling centers. Individuals commonly seek therapeutic services to address a wide range of personal, emotional, professional, and relational challenges, among other issues impacting their well-being and development. My approach to therapy is rooted in an integrative framework with the client at the center and consists of assisting individuals in becoming more effective and self-reliant when resolving problems. I utilize a combination of different theoretical methods including Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My attention to detail has been crucial when assessing clients’ needs, understanding their unique situations, and tailoring interventions to help them succeed and excel in different facets of their lives. I pride myself on supporting the needs of those I work with with respect, empathy, and gentleness. Some of my clinical areas of interest include anxiety, depression, trauma, self-compassion, identity development, relationship concerns, family matters, adjusting to change, and advocating for underserved/underrepresented populations. As a Black woman, I take pride in providing culturally sensitive services and support amongst all populations I work with. Compassion, active listening and responsiveness have helped me in building strong therapeutic relationships with my clients. My intention in therapy is to develop a secure and reassuring space to uplift clients while promoting advocacy and empowerment as they work towards their personal goals along their mental health and wellness journey. I do so by fostering resilience, coping skills, and self-awareness through open dialogue, effective treatment planning, and skill introduction and implementation in sessions. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, I aspire to support individuals in creating positive, lasting changes in their lives. In an effort to maintain my own mental health and overall wellbeing I like to engage in self-care by spending time with my loved ones, listening to music and podcasts, attending concerts and live shows, exercising (I love Step Aerobics and trying random classes), journaling, going on solo dates, traveling, exploring new spaces and activities, creative projects, sleeping in on off days, and spending time in solitude (I'm an introvert and sometimes have to recharge my social battery). Just as I encourage clients to nurture their inner world, I remain committed to my own growth and balance—believing that a grounded therapist creates the safest space for transformation to unfold. I believe that healing is not a one-size-fits all process, and I am honored to walk alongside each client as they reclaim their voice, deepen their self understanding, and move toward a life that feels more whole, empowered, and true to them.
I have worked with clients from many different backgrounds across the lifespan who are suffering, lost, or just looking for a place to talk. Most commonly, I have worked with people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, family struggles, relationship stress, and life transitions. As a therapist, I take an approach that is individualized and client-centered. I develop a treatment plan collaboratively with my clients based on their expertise of their own lives. I draw my interventions from behavioral approaches and frequently incorporate self-compassion work with clients. Through my undergraduate and graduate studies, I learned a lot about human behavior. Through my clinical experience and in my own journey, I learned a lot about healing. I am so grateful to serve others through this work every day.

Many of the people I see feel overwhelmed by ADHD and want support from someone who truly understands how it affects daily life. Some also carry trauma or PTSD and are looking for a safe place to work through what they have been holding. They want practical tools, honest feedback, and a therapist who understands how their brain works.
