Lyz Luidens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
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.

Ann Abbey
Limited License Psychologist, MA, LLP, RYT
Do you ever lie awake replaying conversations, wondering if you said the wrong thing, or wishing you could take care of everyone without feeling so depleted? Maybe you move through your days on autopilot, doing everything you’re “supposed” to do, yet still feeling an ache inside. You want to slow down, feel more present and experience real moments of connection and joy. But no matter how hard you try, something still feels off. You just want to know that you’re going to be okay.
Together, we’ll gently explore what’s keeping you up at night and what patterns aren’t serving you anymore. You’ll have a warm, grounded space to bring your worries, your exhaustion, your questions and the parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden. I’ll meet you there. With care, honesty, and the kind of support that lets you show up exactly as you are.
In our work, you’ll begin to reconnect with your inner steadiness, soften the fear and self-doubt that keep you stuck, strengthen the relationships that matter and make room for more ease and clarity.
Sessions are available by video or phone, making it simple to get the support you need. If this resonates, I’d love to talk. You can reach out through my website or give me a call. I look forward to connecting.

Sterling Heights is Macomb County's largest city and home to one of the largest Chaldean (Iraqi Christian) communities in the United States, as well as significant Arab-American, South Asian, and Eastern European populations, making it one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Michigan with correspondingly diverse therapy needs. Culturally competent and Arabic-speaking therapists are in significant demand, particularly for clients navigating immigration trauma, intergenerational family conflict between Chaldean community norms and American culture, and the mental health challenges of communities that have experienced significant displacement and loss. Henry Ford Health System and Ascension hospitals in the area provide behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. Common therapy concerns include immigration and displacement trauma, intergenerational family dynamics, acculturation stress, anxiety, depression, and the complex identity challenges of communities maintaining strong cultural and religious traditions in a new country.
