Therapists for college students near Ann Arbor, MI

I believe life is a process. Many things occur during this process. The challenge is our perspective and how we chose to look at life. There are times when the lenses through which we use to view life are clouded, but with the proper adjustments our vision can be much clearer. My goal is not to change you but to help facilitate the change that you desire. For some, this may take a few sessions and for others it may take longer. I am willing to get down in the trenches with you and bring you to the place where you desire to be. I am dedicated to bringing out the best in you.

“Live simply so others may simply live.” – Mahatma Gandhi I believe therapy is a relationship experience between client and counselor. I, as a counselor, am an expert in my field and my client is an expert of themselves. My approach to therapy stems from the belief that client and counselor work best together as a team, to help uncover the core beliefs and traits taught to us as children and young adults. I incorporate empathy and unconditional positive regard into each of my sessions, to work towards connection and understanding of one another and one’s self. I have experience working in both partial hospitalization program and outpatient settings. My experience stems from working with children and teens with autism, to working with adults with severe anxiety and depression. I have experience working as a mentor of juveniles, as well as a professional in the foster care system. My experience allows for me to keep an open mind when going into the therapy setting, to better understand my clients and their individual backgrounds.

“Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength.” I believe that everyone deserves a place to feel safe and seen. In my approach, I strive to create an environment of acceptance and warmth, while striking a balance of change and accountability to help you reach your goals. Doubtless, you have overcome so much on your journey, and my goal is to help you embrace and hone the strengths you already possess. I have previous experience working as an outpatient therapist at the DBT Institute of Michigan, where I practiced fully comprehensive DBT and taught DBT skills groups, with special focus on young adults and the LGBTQ+ community. Although I do not currently offer fully comprehensive DBT, the model continues to inform my practice.

The hope of The Counseling Center of Great Lakes is to be able to offer support and encouragement to people in their communities by helping them find hope and healing through professional counseling. Hillary earned a Master of Arts in Counseling degree from Spring Arbor University (2020) and is licensed in the state of Michigan as a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor (LLPC) and the State of Illinois as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). After starting CCGL with her co-owners in 2020, her family transitioned to Illinois in 2024 and she began working at Monte Nido Chicago Day Treatment as a PHP/IOP Primary Therapist where she worked with clients who were in a higher level of care for eating disorders. Her experience working these different levels of care also provided further experience working with clients struggling with various mental illnesses including a variety of eating disorders, depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, OCD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and various personality disorders. After a year away, Hillary realized that she missed the atmosphere of private practice and CCGL, so she transitioned back and is currently seeing clients through telehealth exclusively. Hillary believes the counseling process is a mutually constructive effort between both the client and the counselor. Her approach to counseling is to gain understanding of the client as a whole person. In order for change to occur, the client must feel like they have the space to be their authentic selves. She offers interventions from various schools of treatment thought, choosing interventions based on their suitability and perceived benefit to the client and his or her stated goals. Hillary believes every client wants to feel seen and heard; and is honored to get to journey alongside her clients to offer hope and healing.
