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.
