Welcome and congratulations on taking the first step to improve your mental health! I work with teens, young adults and women to overcome anxiety, build stronger relationships and empower them to live with confidence. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 17 years of experience, working in high schools and private practice. I specialize in supporting people living with anxiety, navigating school, career and life transitions, and coping with body image and relationship issues. I am grateful for a career that allows me to connect with and help so many amazing humans to achieve their goals and feel more content in their lives.

I offer virtual therapy in PA, MI, and MN. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience across a variety of settings. I obtained my bachelor's degree from Mercyhurst University and master's degree in social work from Edinboro University. I have experience working with adults in community mental health and residential treatment for substance use disorders. I use evidence-based practices including: CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and Behavioral Activation. I provide strength-based, personalized therapy that empowers clients to take control of their mental health and work towards their goals. My approach to counseling is collaborative and client centered. I believe that you are the expert of your own life, and my role is to provide guidance, support, and a framework for your journey. Our first session is a chance to explore what's bringing you to therapy and what you hope to gain. I focus on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can freely express yourself. Over time, we'll work together to identify repeated emotional patterns, develop coping strategies, and new ways of responding to life's challenges.

Hello, my name is Adam Nash and I am a counselor who works in a private practice called Health for Life. I am a trauma informed counselor who works with men in their late teens and early 20's. I believe that college is one of the hardest times of anyone's life and I believe that having someone to support you through these difficult times is very important.

Troy, MI

I believe healing begins when we feel safe enough to tell the truth, about our pain, our fears, and the parts of ourselves we learned to hide for surviving purposes. Therapy with me is about creating space to understand yourself with more compassion, clarity, and choice. With over 15 years of experience in the business world, I understand the burnout of high-functioning, over-responsible individuals, the life transitions coming from career change or relocation and the identity exploration and rebuilding after disruption. I am especially drawn to supporting people who have learned to be strong early in life, and are now learning how to be gentler with themselves.

Licensed Professional Counselor
Grand Rapids, MI

Hey! I am so glad you are here! My name is Katie and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I received my Bachelor's degree in Communications from Hope College and my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Cornerstone University. I am passionate about working with college students and young adults (and adults of all ages and walks of life!). Whether you are feeling stuck deciding on what is next, what path to choose for your career or life, or just need a listening ear, I am here to create a space where you can show up as you are and leave feeling encouraged and heard. College and those post years are really tough, and full disclosure where some of the most messy and challenging years of my life. Therapy was so important to me during that time, and I hope to offer you the support you deserve to navigate your experience. When we meet, you can expect a very personable experience focused on you and your goals, some humor and references to various shows/songs/movies or the latest trend I am trying to understand to help remind you that you are not alone, and a space where nothing is ever too much, you will never be judged, and you can truly be authentically yourself.

Finding a new therapist can be overwhelming. I'm so glad you're here! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides compassionate, evidence-based care for college students struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, identity exploration (including LGBTQ+ affirming care), and life transitions. Many of my clients are often struggling with confidence, setting boundaries, and being in touch with their feelings and needs. I love supporting young adults who are navigating changing relationships, whether it is navigating new and old friendships, reconfiguring relationships with parents and/or figuring out how you want to show up in romantic relationships. As a multiracial woman, I can empathize with students of color and members of other groups facing obstacles related to systemic oppression, and I strive to create a space where every part of your identity is honored and supported. I form genuine connections with each of my clients and develop a true partnership to address challenges while celebrating growth and progress along the way. I provide a balance of space to process thoughts and feelings while also offering practical tools to support change. You can show up how you need to in a safe, warm and non-judgemental space. I grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan but spent the last few years in Denver and have recently moved back to Grand Rapids. When I'm not working I love yoga, running, baking and spending time outside. I'm accepting new clients and happy to text/talk to see if I can be a good fit for what what you need. I accept BCBC, BCN, BCN Advantage, cash-pay and have some sliding scale appointments. Feel free to reach out and I hope I can be a support!

Royal Oak, MI

I work with folks that are in the middle of change—whether that’s navigating substance use, questioning long-held beliefs, or rebuilding after a major life shift. As a master’s level student therapist pursuing an LPC, I take a solution-focused, creative approach that blends evidence-based techniques like CBT and IFS with real-world problem-solving. Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about movement, perspective shifts, and practical steps forward. Through curiosity, structure, and a focus on what works, we’ll navigate this together. If you’re ready to start—or even just thinking about it—let’s talk.

College is a time of growth and self-discovery—but it can also bring unique challenges. Balancing classes, relationships, and big questions about who you want to become is already a lot. Adding the stress of chronic illness or health symptoms can make it feel even heavier. At Evergreen Solutions, therapy offers a supportive space to explore your identity, manage the emotional impact of health challenges, and build skills for balance and confidence. This is your time to grow into yourself, and you don’t have to do it alone.
