Help me to understand your story. Help me to help you find the balance, joy and serenity we all crave. Join me on a journey that begins with your strength and courage in taking the first steps of thoughtful exploration into revealing your best self. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with over ten years experience in the state of Michigan, while my experience helping people goes back more than 30 years. I earned a Master's degree from Western Michigan University in 2010 as a way of bringing my years of diverse experience and training to the level of professional ethics and practices that is such an important part of state licensure. My training and education are ongoing and constant. This nurtures my enthusiasm and dedication to the art of counseling and my ability to be the best counselor I can be for my clients. My approach is person centered first, as I need to determine a plan based on you and your own unique story. Whether your concerns are fleeting or more pervasive and troubling, I can help you explore what will actually work for you. I prefer to stay grounded in practical, solution focused exploration and therapy. This can allow therapy to resonate while remaining grounded in the clients own experience and needs. I've worked with people of all ages from all walks of life and each experience has taught me to be a better counselor while finding what was universal to the human experience, and I continue to learn, adapt and grow, as a therapist, from the individual and specific experience that is that one person's story. Much of what it means to be human is universal to us all, yet each and every one of us is an original. I look forward to working with you.

I have a number of years providing personal and career counseling both individually and in groups. I like to help people distinguish between problems they can solve from those with which they have to adjust. I try to help people identify as many ways as possible to solve problems, but I do not select which alternative(s) would work best - they do. I also try to help clients set priorities by identifying which concerns need immediate attention (acute) versus which concerns are ongoing (chronic). I've worked with inner-city Detroit clients as well as those from suburbia. I have taught counseling courses at Oakland University, Shippensburg University, University of Detroit, and University of Phoenix. I have a Master's degree in Counseling from Wayne State University and a Ph.D degree in Counseling from the University of Michigan. My name is Peter Wolf and I look forward to meeting you!

I’m Deana Schad, a licensed professional counselor. I have worked in the mental health field for 25 years. My work is grounded in the belief that lasting change happens when we address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. I believe that when we change our thoughts, feelings and behaviors, we can change our lives—not through quick fixes, but through intentional, incremental sustainable changes. If we want to feel good we have to take good care of ourselves and this starts with cultivating healthy habits such as restorative sleep, quality nutrition, regular movement, and meaningful relationships. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with a primary focus of using stage-matched treatment principles to meet you exactly where you are and support you in a way that aligns with your readiness to create habit changes. I believe people already carry their own wisdom. Therapy, in my view, is not about giving advice, but about creating a safe, reflective space to excavate the answers that already exist within you. Much of my work centers on values alignment. I believe that living out of alignment with our values often creates anxiety, and that chronic stress and anxiety can contribute to illness. When we live in alignment with what truly matters to us, contentment becomes possible. My approach is also informed by the belief that physical and emotional pain is an inevitable part of being human, but suffering is optional. By letting go of our attachments to thoughts, feelings and behaviors that no longer serve us we can reduce our suffering. I work collaboratively with clients to build awareness, create meaningful change, and support a life that feels more intentional, balanced, and aligned.
