Existential / Humanistic Therapy
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.

Bianca Mackiewicz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
I offer virtual therapy for adults across Michigan dealing with anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, identity stuff, and life transitions. I work well with people who are overwhelmed, stuck in their heads, or tired of trying to hold everything together on their own. I especially enjoy working with neurodivergent adults, LGBTQ+ adults, and BIPOC clients who want therapy that feels affirming, grounded, and real.

Bruce Clark
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Working with a psychologist should involve you feeling truly seen and supported. I offer compassionate care for adults navigating anxiety, depression, and perfectionism for therapy, and I also offer comprehensive ADHD and personality testing for those seeking those services. My approach blends mindfulness and evidence-based strategies to help you reconnect with yourself and what matters most. If you're ready for a change that feels honest and lasting, I’d be honored to work with you.
