How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

I work with Gen-Z and Millennial clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and the effects of trauma. As we build a strong therapeutic relationship, we can (gently!) begin to bring more awareness and healing into your life. If you have experienced attachment wounds or trauma and now feel stuck or disconnected in your relationships, I would love to provide a place where you can explore the patterns and beliefs that have shaped your story.

We’re all in the process of becoming ourselves, aren’t we? Therapy can be a powerful tool that allows us to be seen, heard, and supported. The most significant growth I’ve had in my own life has been a direct result of therapy centered around self-love and acceptance— it’s why I’m so passionate about creating space for others and why I founded this private practice. While there are all sorts of technical terms I could use to describe my theoretical orientation – relational, psychodynamic, interpersonal – my aim is to get to know your unique story and to be with you as you are and where you’re going. I founded Tobin Counseling in 2018 and am fully licensed in the state of Michigan. I provide Supervision Services for LLPCs in the state of Michigan. I also offer consulting services to therapists across the country. I specialize in the following areas: Sexual Identity, Gender Identity, Trauma, Oppression, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Familial/Relational Boundaries, Spiritual/Religious trauma As a queer, non-binary individual, it is important to me to provide competent, tauma-informed therapy to queer and trans folks.

Are you feeling overwhelmed and stuck? Are you repeating frustrating patterns? Do you feel unsure of how to move forward? It’s normal to feel this way when facing major life transitions in a complex and often oppressive world.  Working together, I will help you slow down and pay attention to what is happening on the inside with gentleness and curiosity to find answers from your inner wisdom. By changing your relationship with yourself, you can feel more grounded, confident, and authentic. Doing so will allow you to access your most profound sense of empowerment and make clear choices to lead a more meaningful life.  When you face major life transitions, you may feel anxious, sad, isolated, frustrated, or confused. If you have a chronic or terminal illness, grief from the death of a loved one, the loss of a relationship or a job, or are exploring your gender or sexual orientation; therapy can provide support and connection as you navigate challenges and choices.  While the lens through which I view the therapy process is existential and transpersonal, my work is fundamentally trauma-informed and social justice-oriented (anti-oppressive). The most common piece of feedback I receive from clients is that they feel more empowered, confident, and grounded after working with me. I am known for providing a safe, non-judgmental space where we explore your feelings, thoughts, choices, and values with gentle curiosity to increase self-awareness and self-compassion to improve your relationship with yourself and others. Together we can sort through what you are feeling to gain insight and relief so you can live with enhanced authenticity and integrity.

I'm a therapist in San Francisco specializing in anxiety, men's mental health, and relationship issues. I believe that effective therapy is both insightful and pragmatic - you should come away from therapy sessions with a better understanding of what you're facing, along with some ideas about how to get started on solutions. I help people find new ways of approaching their concerns so that their lives can be more manageable and fulfilling. This may mean having less conflict in your relationship, less anxiety, less negative thoughts, or making some big changes to your day-to-day life. Clients find me to be collaborative, open, and curious. I want to make sure you feel safe to explore difficult topics, and that you always feel I'm on your side, even when I'm challenging you to step outside of your comfort zone. If you'd like to learn more, please reach out for a free 20-minute consultation or read more about my practice at https://www.therapywithalex.com

Hi! I'm a Board Certified Behavior Analyst supporting individuals who want to make a change, big or small. I focus on small behaviors that support moving you towards what's important to you.

Welcome! I help individuals and couples make sense of their overwhelm by defining the problem and giving them tools to practice in session. You will also be assigned homework and I will provide you with the resources you need (quizzes, pdf’s, book recommendations, etc) to achieve your goals outside of your session. I am a licensed social worker and I am trained in marriage and family therapy. What that means is that in therapy we will look at the patterns in your life, your connections with others and the impact of your environment when working toward your goals. I love realness in therapy. I value being honest and direct with you and welcome your honesty and directness as well.

When I was a little girl, my anxiety was so bad I found it absolutely terrifying to do even the simplest things like ordering from the ice cream truck. I dealt with crippling fear and self-doubt for decades, starting in those earliest years. Through my personal journey, education, and professional experience, I unraveled the toxic thought process that I had unknowingly worked so hard to perfect all my life. Today, I help others conquer the same sorts of fears and self doubt that used to hold me back. My passion is helping others break free from the patterns that hold them back and experience the life they want.

I work with women navigating grief, overwhelm, and life’s many transitions—whether that’s motherhood, fertility struggles, midlife shifts, or the quiet ache of loss. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in deep respect for your lived experience. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS), psychodynamic and existential therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches like ACT. These frameworks help us explore your inner landscape with curiosity, not judgment—and to create a process that feels both thoughtful and practical. I believe that healing doesn’t mean fixing what’s broken, but making space for what’s true. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling depleted, unsure, or stuck. Together, we’ll work to untangle the knots, reconnect with your values, and move toward a version of life that feels more honest and aligned. Supervised by Laurie Groh, MS, LPC, SAS.
