Online therapy for Michigan residents
Detroit, Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, Lansing and the Upper Peninsula are a long way from one another, and finding a therapist who really gets your identity can mean driving even farther. Online therapy lets Michigan residents meet from home, whichever part of the state that is.
Origins Counseling & Wellness offers secure video therapy with a clinician who is licensed to practice in Michigan. Our care is trauma-informed and affirming of LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent clients and of people whose lives do not fit a template.
What you can work on with a Michigan clinician
Our Michigan clinician lists these focus areas. Their profile explains their approach in their own words, so you can tell whether they sound like a fit.
- Anxiety Disorders
- Boundary Setting and People-Pleasing
- Identity Exploration
- Kink-Affirming Care
- LGBTQIA+ Affirming Care
- Life Transitions Support
- Neurodivergent Support
- Perfectionism & High Achievement
- Polyamory & Consensual Non-Monogamy

How online therapy with Origins works
- Choose a clinician. Read the profile of our Michigan clinician below, or browse the full therapist directory.
- Book a free 15-minute consultation. It is a low-pressure conversation to see whether you click. Here is how booking works, or call 252-220-0420 or text us.
- Meet by secure video. Join from a private space in Michigan on your phone, tablet or computer. Most of Michigan is on Eastern time and a few Upper Peninsula counties are on Central, so tell us your time zone when you book.
- Adjust as you go. If the fit is not right, tell us. Finding the right person is part of the process.
Clinicians licensed in Michigan
Therapists can only provide therapy to people who are physically located in a state where they hold a license. The clinician listed on this page is licensed in Michigan, so you need to be in Michigan during your session. If you are traveling or planning a move, tell your therapist early so you can plan for continuity of care.
Our in-person offices are all in North Carolina, so care for Michigan clients happens online.
Cost, insurance and payment for Michigan clients
Insurance participation varies by clinician, by plan and by state, so a plan we work with in North Carolina does not automatically apply in Michigan. Ask us before you book and we will tell you what is available for your plan. Many Michigan clients use self-pay, a sliding-scale spot when one is open, or out-of-network benefits with a superbill. Our guide to using insurance for counseling explains the basics.
If you need help right now
Online therapy is not an emergency service. If you or someone you know is in crisis in Michigan, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
