Outpatient Counseling for Substance Abuse and Mental Health

I graduated from Michigan State University with a BA in Psychology, and then a Masters in Social Work. I have earned MCBAPs certification as an advanced alcohol and drug counselor as well as the supervisors credential to oversee the professional development of those that treat substance use disorders. I am not distinguished by my credentials, but by my ability to extend myself into your life’s journey without judgment. I offer you a therapeutic alliance through which you can heal from past wounds, embrace imperfections, and accept yourself as you are so that you may cultivate and enrich the best aspects of you.

I enjoy working with all ages, ethnicities, and orientations. I have experience with stress management, grief and loss, postpartum depression, infertility challenges, anxiety and depression in both children and adults, and I specialize in the assessment and treatment of substance use disorders, Auricular Acupuncture (NADA’s acudetox – 5 point protocol), and supervision of LLMSWs and CAADCs.

It takes strength to seek out self-improvement through the use of therapy which is often a much more difficult task than many anticipate and for that, I am honored that you are willing to share openly with me.

Hi, I’m Danielle and I have worked at Community Healing Centers for two years.  My specialties and areas of interests include anxiety, depression, substance use disorders/co-occurring, and mindfulness.  I enjoy working as a therapist because I get to see how people grow and persevere through life’s hardships. There is nothing more satisfying to me than seeing someone accomplish something they never thought was possible!  My interests include video games, reading, racquetball, origami, chess, board games, and wiggling.

Favorite quote/words to live by:  “Work smarter, not harder.”

Hello!  My name is Rachael and I am a master’s level social worker with a degree from Western Michigan University.  My goal is to provide a therapeutic environment through which we can explore both mental health and co-occurring needs. I employ a systems-approach to help facilitate development of a lifestyle that effectively integrates holistic care.
