Michele Koenes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, JD
I am a neurodivergent therapist with a passion for working with others to help them to find a way forward through the difficult parts of life. I have been a licensed mental health professional for over 30 years and I love my job just as much today as I did when I began. I am attuned to my clients unique and individual personalities, situations and needs. I believe that empathy and letting the client set the pace of therapy is imperative to an effective process and the realization of desired outcomes. I offer a wide array of solutions and approaches, all based on current research, in order to find what specifically works for you. Everyone's feelings, circumstances and situation are unique. Similarly, therapy has to be individualized specifically for you. I offer a supportive, safe place where every aspect of you is welcome – even the parts that may be uncomfortable to share. I am ready to begin the process with you!

Lyz Luidens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LLMSW
Therapy is a brave step in the process of navigating life’s current challenges and healing past wounds in a safe environment. I offer a unique and compassionate perspective to therapy, employing IFS/parts work, Somatic strategies, and Psychodynamic methods, while drawing on the transformative power of curiosity and creativity as impactful tools for healing and growth. As a genderqueer person and 10 year resident of the city of Detroit, I recognize that oppressive systems contribute to mental health disparities among marginalized groups.
Combining my extensive experience teaching art across all age groups, my Master’s in Social Work, and my experience as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, I work from a feminist, anti-racist, perspective.
Working with children (ages 6 and up), teens, and adults, my commitment to inclusivity includes LGBTQIA+ issues, disability, trauma, ADHD, autism, depression, and anxiety. I am here to provide a compassionate therapeutic experience for you to explore your narrative, embrace your strengths, and foster resilience, hope, and joy.
Informed by an intersectional lens, my approach is grounded in equality and empowerment, addressing the impact of all parts of your identity on how you navigate the world and approach growth and healing. I will support you in navigating these complex experiences and identities through empowerment, using Psychodynamic, Somatic, and Internal Family Systems methods. I am affirming of all queer, chronically ill/disabled, and neurodivergent identities, and always continuing my education on the liberation of all people, whether I have shared experience with them or not.
I have particular experience and understanding of the difficulty that neurodivergent, queer, and chronically ill people face in navigating our healthcare system, job market, and social world. I am also well versed in religious trauma, particularly experienced by queer people. Though these are my areas of focus, I am here to affirm and empower anyone looking for support navigating mental health issues, life changes, issues with self worth, trauma, and anything anything that you are struggling to process on your own. I am honored to walk beside on your journey towards healing, growth, and joy.

Antonio Cordero
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, Ed.M.
Have you focused so hard on achieving success, that you neglect to examine your own needs? Do you recognize that trauma from your childhood still impacts how you engage with the world today? Are you seeking a therapeutic space that acknowledges you as a whole, complex person while you work towards your goals? As your therapist, I feel passionate about empowering you with tools to live a full, cognizant, and rewarding life.
As a Boston University Counseling graduate with a specialization in Sport Psychology, I work with clients committed to both well-being and performance optimization. My extensive training in Brainspotting for trauma, CBT, DBT, and Polyvagal Theory gives me integrated, evidence-based tools to address performance, trauma, addiction, mood, and anxiety concerns.
In our therapeutic work, we will develop an authentic relationship that balances challenges and support as we establish a collaborative partnership tailored to your goals and needs. I will work hard at building flexible, comfortable, and intentional plans of action to guide and encourage you as you pursue your unique therapeutic goals.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you looking for a therapist who is engaging, warm, understanding, experienced and very knowledgeable? If so, I'm your therapist. I have helped others like you improve their relationships, overcome anxiety, depression and anger. Even if you have lost hope, together we can build self-confidence, strengthen resilience, and find motivation to overcome the obstacles. Whether you come for individual, or for couples therapy, my clients are often surprised what can be overcome and how much better things can be.
Most people spend weeks or even months contemplating getting professional help. During that time, most continue to do what hasn't worked and things can deteriorate fast. When you contact me today, you are opening the door to relieving distressful symptoms and living a better life.
