Hi, My name is Faizah Nasser, I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been working in the field for 9 years now. I received my Master’s Degree at Wayne State University. I have worked with a wide variety of populations and in different settings. I have worked in an outpatient clinic, inpatient hospital, and schools providing individual and group therapy. I have experience with working with individuals with ADHD, Anxiety/stress, and Depression, and Parenting Skills. I usually take a client centered therapeutic approach, taking a client centered approach helps focus on the client and offer subtle guidance and encouragement to take control of your destiny. I believe that seeking help takes a lot of courage and is a step in the right direction. Therapy should be viewed as a positive approach to self care and promote emotional wellness. I would love to work with you to feel confident in your ability to tackle the challenges of everyday life you are facing. I look forward to working with you!

Hello! As a Nationally Certified, Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed School Counselor, I utilize client-centered, cognitive-behavioral/solution-focused techniques.

I am a licensed professional counselor with a background in human services, education, and social work. I have worked with individuals struggling with the grief and loss of a loved one, domestic violence, trauma, diagnosed personality disorders, anxiety and depression, poverty and homelessness, human trafficking victims, and individuals experiencing chronic pain. Although my experiences are diverse, I have learned two overarching truths: human suffering is universal AND there is always hope. My style of treatment is person-centered and eclectic. I know that "one-size-fits-all" is never true with mental health treatment. Each client has a unique story and therapeutic goals are developed cooperatively with that in mind. You are the expert on you. I am often described as a warm and empathetic listener, but I am also willing to provide reflective feedback during "stuck" moments in treatment. If you are ready to move towards a path of healing, hope, and wholeness, contact me and we will begin this journey together.

In order to bring about healing, there must be respect, encouragement, and empathy. This is what I strive for as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. You are the expert of your life, and I believe in meeting you where you are at in your life. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and interactive. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and compassion. I utilize a client-centered, strength-based approach, with all forms of treatment. I believe everyone has a story to tell and that we are all capable of growth and change. I will work with you to determine the appropriate education, skill, or intervention to meet your goals. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Family Life Education in 2012 and my Masters of Social Work in 2015 from Western Michigan University. Since 2015, I have worked with teens and families involved in the Criminal Justice system. My experience includes working with clients with anxiety, depression, family conflict, self-esteem, career challenges, substance use issues, and major life changes. As your therapist I will be available via chat, text, phone, or face chat. My availability will be primarily evenings and weekends. I will check messages daily to ensure timely responses to meet your needs.

“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning to sail my ship.” ~Louisa May Alcott Once you understand yourself better, you begin to navigate your world with confidence. Your most challenging periods in life can lead to tremendous growth. I value relationships that reflect warmth, honesty, compassion, and humor. As your therapist, I intend to bring these qualities to each of our sessions. I know, from personal experience, that giving voice to your fears and doubts in a supportive environment can be life-changing. This very human experience can remind us of our ability for extraordinary things and our capacity for kindness. Once we find more patience and empathy for ourselves, we can give those things more freely to others. It’s amazing how different the world looks when we feel differently about ourselves. Let’s discover solutions that work for you. I look forward to working you.

I’m a Licensed Clinical MSW with 30 years experience in private practice with my Licensed Clinical Psychologist husband. I’ve worked with people in a psychiatric hospital, a Veteran’s Administration hospital and Partial Hospital. In these settings, as well as outpatient in my private practice, I’ve worked with most emotional concerns including, of course, depression, anxiety, trust, shame as well as more complex sources of emotional discomfort. My training and supervision has been in interpersonal, psychodynamic and cognitive behavior therapy, but more important, I think, is the core of my approach, the real and genuine relationship within which the therapist is fully present. Decades of research have shown the incredible healing power of a real therapy relationship. I’ll try to help you understand and find direction for yourself. I’ll never tell you what to do and only rarely give advice. I hope this is what you are seeking and I look forward to working with you.
