Nicole, a graduate student intern at Attunement, is able to offer individual sessions for $40 or less on an ongoing basis (pay what you can). We offer a focus on holistic healing, communication tools, and stress management techniques that are trauma-informed and LGBTQ-affirmative. We are passionate about helping all people gain clarity and feel more connected, calm, and self-compassionate. We’d love to help you meet your goals of feeling more present in the here and now, both with yourself and with your relationships. My 10+ years of education, experience, and research has led me to focus on how we relate to ourselves and others in our lives, as well as the connection between our mind and body. I am also an LGBTQ-affirmative, polyamory-affirmative, and kink-aware therapist familiar with hierarchical and non-hierarchical polyamory, swinging, relationship anarchy, and more. As you begin or continue your journey of self-improvement, I would like to offer my knowledge and services as a guide. I am the owner of my private practice, Attunement LLC, and offer telehealth visits to anyone located in the state of Michigan. Please contact me for more information or to make an appointment.
I have a professional interest and passion to counsel adolescents, adults, families, and couples using evidence-based approaches and interpersonal practices. With supporting individuals overcoming trauma, mental illness, and/or substance abuse, I've learned how to aid in promoting an individual's personal sense of resilience through mindfulness techniques, along with other interventions, eliminating barriers to treatment. My clinical orientation includes, but is not limited to, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, existentialism, and person-centered approaches. By observing how individuals’ home and school environments influenced their behaviors, I found a unique fascination and understanding in how systems influence an individual and family.
My heart for hurting people was birthed out of my own journey of experiencing healing from trauma, abuse and loss. I am convinced that all of us are created with a potential for incredible resilience and with the right kind of compassionate support, we can bounce back from the worst of circumstances. I grew up in India and after moving to the US in 2001, received a M.A. in Professional Counseling from Grand Rapids Theological Seminary. Over the last 2 decades, I have enjoyed working with children and adults in various settings such as schools, women's shelters, colleges, churches and private practice. In my spare time I enjoy traveling, hiking, biking, kayaking, camping, cooking and enjoying conversations over a good meal with friends and family.
Making the step toward healing is a courageous choice, and in knowing how vulnerable this process can be, I strive to provide a safe, accepting environment for those who are ready to open themselves up to this growth. I believe that all humans are inherently worthy, and I will support you in uncovering this within yourself. There are many obstacles that can get in the way of aligning with your core values and the life you desire, and my goal is to guide you in the learning and unlearning process that can help reconnect you with your true self.
Are you struggling with unresolved childhood trauma? Keep finding yourself stuck in an unhealthy cycle of self-doubt? Finding it hard to implement and maintain boundaries? Let me help guide you through these feelings and find peace within yourself. I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma, anxiety, and depression. This modality will help you find peace and resolution from the things that bother you the most in your day to day life. I understand that taking the first step, whether it’s asking a question, seeking guidance, or exploring a new partnership, can feel like a lot. Please know that you don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to listen, support you, and help you find the solution that feels right for you.
Welcome. I’m Chloe. I received my Master's in Social Work from Michigan State University and have been practicing for 14 years. I have spent my career walking alongside children, teens, and adults as they navigate issues of grief and loss, anxiety, and depression. In my practice, I focus on validating each client’s unique experience. I allow clients to share information and process emotions at their own pace. I use a collaborative, integrative approach when working with clients to develop a treatment plan that fits with their needs. Although, grief is often seen as inherently connected with love, grief can also arise from complicated situations. It is not uncommon for someone to experience feelings of grief despite not having “liked’ the person when they were alive. This can bring up a mix of emotions including sadness, anger, regret, guilt, relief, and many others. The situation can leave the client feeling conflicted about grieving someone who has hurt them or someone they know. I work to develop therapeutic relationships where clients feel safe to begin to unlayer these complicate emotions and find a way to release the emotional burden associated with them. In my practice, I respect that each client has their own unique journey and I seek to listen with compassion, patience, and genuineness. I strive to provide a safe and welcoming space where clients can take the time needed to work through their feelings to ultimately heal and grow.

Life is complicated. Let's figure it out. Whether you’re experiencing problems in your relationship, family, work, school, or you’re just not feeling like yourself, get the clarity you need at Mend Counseling in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It shouldn’t be so hard to understand ourselves. But it is. Our challenges follow us on vacation, between jobs, and across relationships. The only way to see real change is to identify what is causing our problems in the first place. To view profiles of individual therapists, please check out our website!
My approach begins with the understanding that connecting with one’s self and others is a pathway toward finding meaning and fulfillment. This pathway of connecting can become blocked by old emotional wounds or current relationship struggles. The partnership formed in the therapy relationship becomes the platform where healing broken connections may occur. This approach can help bring about lasting change by getting at the ‘root’ of the problem and bring relief from symptoms. Central to Chris’ approach is a concern for the role that faith and belief play in the life of the patient. My practice is shaped by his time training at Northwestern University, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, and the Center for Religion and Psychotherapy of Chicago. My approach to working to help people change comes primarily from a model for psychotherapy where tending to feelings, symptoms, and patterns of relating becomes an important part of the healing process. In our first conversation, you can expect to briefly discuss your concerns as well as set up an initial meeting. The first meeting is where your concerns and history are better understood in order to offer specific recommendations and feedback.
Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful parts of us. –David Richo Allowing yourself to be vulnerable with someone new is often one of the most challenging aspects of starting therapy. There is a stigma associated with seeking professional help for mental health in many communities; however, therapy can open doors you didn’t know existed. I believe that you are your own expert and have the strength within you to navigate challenges in your life. My role as a therapist is to be along your side to help find the best version of yourself. Each individual’s path in therapy is unique. With the use of strength-based interventions we can find a safe, culturally-responsive, and a non-judgmental environment to support your needs and overcome challenges. I am passionate about helping individuls explore the thoughts and feelings that empower them to develop healthy habits for their daily lives. Healing and change can start with a simple intention and my intention is to help you achieve your personal goals. I am eager to work with individuals who have endured all forms of trauma, including sexual, physical, and emotional. Unprocessed trauma can manifest itself in various forms including emotional responses and physical symptoms. Our bodies often hold on to feelings that our brains cannot process and in turn inhibit our potential to succeed in our daily life. I aim to give you the tools you need to settle those feelings and symptoms and enable your potential for growth, empowerment, self-love, and success. As a daughter of immigrants, I am familiar with the struggles of feeling like an outsider, facing ongoing acculturation, as well as the stress and anxiety that comes with resettlement and starting over. I strive to normalize therapy and make it accessible to anyone struggling with their cultural or personal identity, including the immigrant community and anyone seeking therapy for the first time.
I help college students who struggle with anxiety, disordered eating, body image, low self-esteem, people pleasing, and impostor syndrome. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being helpers with big hearts who pour into others, life feels hard. They are stuck in anxious thought cycles and exhausted. When they first reach out to me, they are tired of feeling anxious. They often say that they sometimes aren’t even sure if they really need therapy because they are getting by in life. Their professors, classmates, and friends all think that they are okay, but inside they feel overwhelmed, stressed, and self-conscious. They are often up at night replaying interactions with others, running through all their worries, and stressing about their to-do lists. Often, they feel a like a fraud; like they somehow managed to trick their way to where they’re at in life and worry that they aren’t capable of the dreams for their future. They wish they could open up to others easier and introduce themselves to new people. They often worry about what other people are thinking and care a lot about the feelings of those around them. They are really good at taking care of others yet struggle to put themselves first. Their anxiety gets in the way of the life they want in so many ways. They aren’t fully the kind of student they want to be. They feel like they are failing at juggling everything that’s on their plate. They feel drained in their relationships. Their confidence in their ability to take on new jobs and opportunities is tanking. Like my clients, you deserve to feel capable of accomplishing your future goals. You deserve to feel happy, self-assured, and worthy. You deserve to live each day knowing that you’re good enough. If you want to bloom into your most confident self, I’d love to help you get there. E-mail now and let's get started; your problems aren’t too small for therapy. I can help! Sarah@BloomMqt.com

Hi, I am a Licensed Social Worker. I offer years of experience working with people 16-90 years of age.
