Hello there! Glad you have come to my page. It can be difficult to reach out let alone find the right counselor. I am sure you are curious to know how I can help. My goal is always to be a spring board towards understanding on the road of client discovery and resolution. Whatever the challenge may be, big or small. I don’t see my role as fixing anything or anyone. I am here to be a person who listens through a lens of psychological expertise to give you the best information for your situation. To listen in complete confidence to help you discover what brings meaning in your life and set a course to get there. While some people only need a few sessions to get back on track for others it can take longer. It is up to you. I’m not here to tell you what to do but rather to make available to you all of what I am trained to know, facilitated by your unique needs, and delivered in a way that challenges and empowers you to move forward. A conduit of information at your disposal. I believe in keeping things simple. Life and work should not have to be complicated. My practice model focuses on the power of information in human exchange. My approach is practical, solution focused, and includes education about why we do what we do as well as evidence-based techniques to manage mental health. My training and experience go back over twenty years when I began as a part-time peer and faith-based counselor. Over the years I gained experience as a behavioral management specialist and coach, later moving on to complete a master’s degree in professional counseling. Currently, I am working on a dissertation for a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I spent several years studying under a master to acquire specialized training as a Choice Theory Psychologist and Certified Reality Therapist. My career background spans corporate, clinical, non-profit, and managed care, education, mental health, and public policy. As a coach I serve professionals in the workplace. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I provide mental health counseling. Since 2009, my professional story includes the privilege of working with a diverse range of populations primarily in the great Southwest. Adults, youth, and families. The best part of which was the rich cultural heritage that all clients brought with them to educate me on various worldviews. My credentials include assessing and treating psychiatric conditions. However, I am much more interested in helping define the immediate problem and explore strategies towards solutions than assigning diagnostic labels. If you are experiencing a problem today, emotionally, psychologically, at home or work, let my years of expertise and knowledge in psychology work for you today! Schedule a time and we can begin to work through it together.

I am a Licensed Social Worker in Michigan with over 15 years of clinical experience in the mental health world. I specialize in managing anxiety, depression, anger, low self esteem, grief and loss, relationships, life transitions, and trauma. Feelings can hit hard and be confusing. Trauma and/or negative experiences can alter our brain in ways that make us more vulnerable to intense, negative emotions. This can create a state of mindlessness throwing our awareness and acceptance off balance. We can become more reactive and at times dissociate from experiences, not truly enjoying life and unable to recall certain memories. This can hurt our relationships and impact our work or school performance. I can teach you the skills to understand yourself and reclaim your emotional stability. The journey is unique and not linear, but with time and patience, I will help you build resilience and teach you new ways to cope with overwhelming emotions.

Your Authentic Self, Your Strongest Self: Therapy Tailored in a Safe, Supportive Space Hello! I'm Dr. Andrew Mendonsa, a clinical psychologist and therapist with 20+ years of experience helping folks like you navigate life's complexities and embrace their true potential and authentic self. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, those struggling with problematic sexual behavior, kink/alt lifestyle/polyamory-focused issues, and anyone seeking a male therapist's perspective. My journey through the worlds of mental health and addiction – from community mental health and marginalized groups, to the criminal justice system, to high wealth clients and corporate boardrooms – has equipped me with a deep understanding of the challenges clients, especially men and those from specialized populations, face today. I've helped countless individuals overcome shame, guilt, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and the unique pressures of modern life. As an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist, I offer a safe and judgment-free space to explore your identity, gender, relationships, sexual expression, and sexuality. Whether you're questioning, coming out, or navigating the unique stressors of the LGBTQIA+, kink, alt-pop, or straight communities, I'm here to support you on your journey! For those grappling with problematic sexual behavior that is causing issues with your work, relationships, finance, or other areas, I provide a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to recovery. I will not tell you to stop what you are doing or else, instead we will identify what is motivating your behavior and desire to change. Knowing these, we can then develop a tailored treatment plan and achievable goals. Together, we'll address the underlying issues, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and rebuild a fulfilling life free from shame, guilt, and compulsive behaviors. My extensive background working with high-achieving individuals in business and academia makes me uniquely equipped to understand the pressures of professional life. If you're struggling with work-related stress, burnout, or career transitions, I can offer practical strategies for success and well-being. I have owned, sold, and managed companies and worked in high levels within the public sector. My approach to therapy is collaborative, goal-oriented, and results-driven. I believe therapy should be a catalyst for change, not a lifelong commitment. Think of it like a tune-up for your mind – we'll get you back on track and running smoothly. You wouldn't leave your car in the shop forever, would you? So why force yourself into a lifetime of therapy? I invite you to visit my website, www.AndrewMendonsa.com, to learn more about me and my approach. Let's work together to build a life that is authentic, fulfilling, and true to you.
