Karlene Harrison
I am a fully licensed clinical social worker with a Masters Degree in Social Work from Michigan State University. I have over 15 years clinical experience in a wide range of settings and with diverse clientele. I work with adults from all backgrounds. Common presenting problems include depression, anxiety, guilt, grief, relationship conflict, and communication barriers. I have extensive experience working with clients facing loss, grief, and life transitions (including clients who are dealing with family members with dementia and aging issues). Finding a therapist and forming a meaningful connection is the first step in your journey toward improving your situation. I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where we can discuss any of life's problems - an environment in which we can work together to assist you in building insight, developing coping strategies, and expressing feelings. My counseling style is relaxed and collaborative. I use a variety of trusted, research based therapy techniques to help you identify problem areas, set expectations, and work toward positive change. Learning to re-frame or perceive problems in a different way can change distorted thoughts and build skills to help you learn how to process problems in healthier ways. I also believe that sometimes people just need to talk for a while - I am a patient listener and my approach allows you, the client, to start wherever you need to start. I am here to help you navigate through the challenges you are facing. I encourage you to be open to the various ways of connecting on this platform and learn which method is most beneficial for you. I look forward to working with you and helping guide you in a positive direction.

Daniel Shepherd
You have already talked with someone about what troubles you? But was that person a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has post-Master's training in communication and relational challenges? Wouldn't it be a good idea to consult a specialist who listens without imposing his agenda? A place where your words are given the highest priority? We know that judgment and fault-finding do not help. Besides, you both know something has gone wrong. As you talk in a structured, nonjudgmental space, there are answers. Therapy helps you discover answers that were already there all along - you just couldn't see them. I do not make the decisions. Instead, there are questions and observations. Each person is unique. Our goal is to discover who you are, what you believe, and what you want out of marriage. Discovery leads to new communication tools, deeper understanding, and healing of painful memories. I know about love and loss. My first wife died at age 36. Please email today.
