Tonya Wells
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW - Clinical
My approach to couples therapy is Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), which research has shown to be effective in improving relationship satisfaction and emotional connection between partners. EFT can lead to significant reductions in distress and increased emotional responsiveness. Your and your partner's needs will guide our sessions, and we'll pivot as necessary to ensure results.

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.
