Top in-person Michigan therapists who accept cash payments

Hi there! My name is Maquira Oliver. I am a licensed clinical social worker practicing within the Metro Detroit area. I have been practicing in the mental health field for 20+ years. My undergrad education was completed at Oakland University. I obtained my master’s degree in social work from Wayne State University. My passion is in assisting individuals, families, and groups with healing from trauma. I believe that we may not recognize our traumas due to living with them for so long. Depression, anxiety, and transitioning through life’s stressors are challenges that I assist in overcoming by teaching healthy coping skills. My approach is client centered and strength based. This means YOU lead the direction of your services. It is my mission to strengthen your core while building a trusting therapeutic relationship. Let’s work together to ensure that you can grow from our conversations mentally stronger, personally and professionally.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor specializing in individual, couples and group therapy. I maintain a private practice in Kalamazoo. I graduated from Western Michigan University where I attended as a non-traditional student. I graduated with my BSW in 2001 and my MSW in 2002. With over 18 years of experience, I bring a unique approach to counseling because of my own personal experiences. I am here to listen, support, encourage and motivate you.

About Me I knew I wanted to be a therapist when I was going through a tough period in my life, and my therapist asked me what I wanted my future to look like. I realized then that I wanted to help people that are struggling recognize that their strengths and resiliency can get them through a challenging time. My Approach I would describe my therapy style as nonjudgemental, strengths based, and empathetic. I do pull from different treatment modalities as I feel therapy should be tailored to the individual and no modality is the perfect fit for everyone. I strive to give my clients a safe and welcoming space to express their needs, challenges, and past experiences. Open to working with adolescents ages 16 and older.

Are you ready to break free from what's holding you back? My name is Danielle Callaway, and I’ve dedicated over 10 years to working with adolescent girls and women on their journeys toward self-discovery, resilience, and empowerment. I’m passionate about helping women heal, grow, and achieve their goals in a supportive, person-centered environment. My approach blends traditional therapy with holistic practices, like mindfulness, breathwork, and meditation, to foster healing from within. I also incorporate EMDR for trauma, which has been transformative for many clients facing anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. My clients describe me as approachable, relatable, and easy to talk to, and I strive to make therapy a comfortable, grounding experience. Whether you're navigating life’s challenges, working through past trauma, or seeking personal growth, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Let’s start your journey to healing, together.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in the State of Michigan, with over twenty five years of experience, working with individuals from all walks of life. I have assisted individuals with depression, anxiety, and abuse issues. I hold a special certification in treating addictions . Many adult survivors of childhood abuse look for ways to numb themselves in toxic ways. It is understandable to respond with anxiety, anger or a general feeling of depression. You don't have to settle for this. My communication style is kind and warm. I don't stigmatize and make assumptions. I treat others in a respectful manner, just the way, I would like to be treated. My style is to connect with you and look for patterns of behaviors that don't work and need to change. We work together to figure out, what would work best for you, so you can have the life you want. I will offer you support for appropriate change.

I have been a counselor for over 10 years and my expertise is related to helping individuals transition through change. In addition, with over 10 years of previous experience in human resources, I am well suited to help you with your career needs. As a counselor, I can help you can explore and identify what is important to you and help you overcome the fear that may be keeping you in an unfulfilling career. As a human resources professional, I have recruited at all levels of the organization and can use that knowledge to help you feel confident and get the job offer. My goal is to help you have a more rewarding career.

Life transitions are difficult. As humans we face many challenges be it stress, career change, relationships, parenting, or loss. It is amazing how powerful the mind is and the ability to improve our lives by identifying thoughts that have us stuck. My goal as a therapist is to help you learn tools so you can fully carry out your purpose. As a Catholic Christian I understand the significance of spirituality in a person's development. I will respect your values and never push my beliefs on you. I earned my Master’s degree from Western Michigan University in 2006 and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I also hold a School Counseling License and worked with middle and high schools for 16 years. I have been married for over twenty years and have four children. We aren’t meant to struggle through life on our own. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength. Let’s build on that together.
