Therapy should fit you
—not the other way around.
You do not need to arrive knowing whether you need EMDR, IFS, CBT, DBT, or any other approach. Most people come because something does not feel right: they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, reactive, exhausted, or caught in patterns that keep repeating.
We start with the whole picture.
At Loving Circle, we begin by understanding the whole picture—your history, relationships, nervous system, strengths, goals, and what your current patterns may be trying to protect.
From there, we build an individualized treatment plan and choose approaches thoughtfully. Our work is trauma-specialized, with EMDR and IFS as prominent tools alongside attachment-focused, somatic, cognitive and behavioral, mindfulness, and relationship-based approaches.

EMDR Therapy

Online Therapy in Michigan
Trauma-specialized therapy through secure telehealth for clients located throughout Michigan, when clinically appropriate.
Trauma & PTSD Therapy
Specialized care for the lasting emotional, relational, cognitive, and nervous-system effects of trauma, PTSD, complex trauma, attachment wounds, and difficult experiences.
Couples Therapy
Attachment- and trauma-informed relationship therapy focused on recurring cycles, connection, communication, trust, and repair.
The Approach We Use
EMDR and IFS are especially visible within our trauma-specialized work.
Depending on the clinician and client, treatment may also integrate EFT and relationship-focused therapy, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, somatic interventions, attachment work, and other evidence-informed approaches.
We do not believe people should have to fit neatly into one therapy model. The goal is to choose tools thoughtfully and collaboratively.
Therapist Matching
The relationship with your therapist matters. When you reach out, we can help consider the kind of support you are looking for along with clinician specialty, style, availability, insurance participation, and whether you prefer in-person or online care.
