Springfield, Michigan is a nature lover’s paradise where you can walk, run, bicycle, or skate for miles on the path that connects to the City of Battle Creek pathway system. For those who are more into plants and animals, the Leila Arboretum and the Binder Park Zoo immerse you in wildlife and flora. Occasionally, for many individuals, a weakened mental health state robs them of the ability to enjoy the beauty of their surroundings.

You don’t have to miss the changing of the seasons or the chatter of living things. Licensed mental health professionals in the Springfield area are available to help spring you back to life. Reach out to a therapist to get started.

Hi, I am Erin McDaid. I have been working for over eight years as a clinical therapist with adults, older adults, and older adolescents. I use a goal-oriented therapy style, focusing on areas of strength or need that are determined by the client. My style is no-nonsense and direct. I use a wide variety of skills and techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness therapy, narrative therapy, and motivational interviewing. I often assign homework for clients to complete between therapy sessions (however, I try not to make it complex or overwhelming). I do not believe in stereotyping, labeling, or stigmatizing people. I welcome working with people of all faiths, genders, sexual orientations, political affiliations, and ethnicities. At an initial interview clients should expect to discuss with me their background (how they grew up, what they have done since high school, any relationship status), their current symptoms, any drug or alcohol use or history, any legal history, and their hopes for what they will get from therapy. During this discussion I will work to clarify any questions that occur to me and to reassure the client that both the client and I are understanding the client’s needs and history. We will also discuss what the specific issues are that brought you to therapy. Be ready to be open and forthcoming. Clients may leave their initial session with a simple homework assignment that will begin to move them forward with their treatment.
