I am a licensed therapist (LMSW) with 10 years of experience working with clients. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, power and control issues, and trauma. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I have had a lot of great success in couples counseling (see the review below about one couple I helped). My therapy style was direct and to the point. I believe in treating anyone with respect, compassion, and caring. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy with motivational interviewing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Marriage/Couples Therapy is my favorite form of therapy as I love helping couples refind the love they have lost. I believe in direct straightforward therapy. I have 10 years of working with Substance Use Disorder Clients, Domestic Violence, and Trauma. I'm a Veteran of the United States Airforce and have experience working with Veteran Clients. Client Review-Mark Panasiewicz is truly a life-changing therapist. When my partner and I first sought his help, our marriage was on the verge of collapse with both of us separated and living in different countries. We were stuck in a cycle of constant arguments, miscommunication, and emotional distance. From the very first session, Mark created a safe, judgment-free space that allowed both of us to open up and be vulnerable. We had seen quite a few therapists previously and can confidently say Mark's approach is unique and different than all other therapists we tried. His practical and direct advice helped us uncover the root causes of our conflicts, teaching us how to communicate in a way that fosters understanding and connection rather than division. His strategies and exercises were practical, insightful, and tailored specifically to our needs. Week after week, we began to see significant changes—not just in our relationship but also in how we viewed ourselves and each other. Two months into therapy we moved back in together. Thanks to Mark's guidance, we’ve rebuilt trust, learned to appreciate one another, and rediscovered the love that brought us together in the first place. We owe him more than words can express. If you're looking for someone who can truly make a difference in your relationship, Mark is the therapist to see. He didn’t just save our marriage—he gave us a new foundation to thrive. Thank you, Mark, for everything!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about licensed therapists and mental health services

Does BetterHelp take insurance?
Yes, BetterHelp has joined with major insurance carriers in select states to provide in-network therapy coverage. Coverage may vary by plan, provider, and therapist availability. Insured members pay an average co-pay of around $19 per session. Average co-pay is based on current insured BetterHelp members. Explore insurance coverage in major Texas cities like Arlington, Lubbock, Plano, Corpus Christi, El Paso, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and Austin.
How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?
The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Dexter due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:
- With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
- With therapists: $100-300
- With a clinician: $100
While many psychologists in Dexter may not take health insurance, some in the state of Michigan may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session.

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Dexter is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.
With a lot of people in MI, therapists may be booked out with clients. Through the list of profiles above and others within BetterHelp's team, you may be able to find a psychologist within 24 to 48 hours.

Should I find a Dexter therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Dexter licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.
