Psychologists in Novi, MI—Licensed Therapy and Counseling Near Me

Meet with a local Thriveworks provider in person or online – we accept insurance & provide personalized, high-quality care.

 

The psychologist Carl Rogers once stated, “The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” For most people, a single achievement doesn’t define happiness. Instead, it’s the little moments along the way. 

How can we become more open to joyful experiences instead of being wrapped up in our own troubles? Feelings of depression and anxiety can bring us down and keep us from living our lives to the fullest. But there are daily routines that you can implement to manage mental health conditions. Sometimes it’s giving yourself a pep talk. Sometimes it’s practicing self-care. Sometimes it’s finding the right psychotropic medication that will help you control your symptoms. Everyone has different needs. But a great psychologist can tailor treatment to those individual needs so you can better enjoy your journey.

The psychologists at Thriveworks in Novi, MI have the compassion, ability, and experience to guide clients toward meaningful insights about their lives. Sometimes those insights have to do with relationships. Sometimes they have to do with psychological states. Sometimes they have to do with situations outside of a client’s control. But simply through the act of talking, thinking, and active listening, people can emerge from therapy sessions mentally lighter–and enlightened. 

What’s the Difference Between an LCSW and a Psychologist?

Thriveworks in Novi, MI offers a variety of different mental health providers who all specialize in specific strategies. Here’s a short guide to who we are and what we do.

  • Licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs) offer counseling services and guidance for social services in order to help clients find solutions to their problems.
  • Psychologists (usually with a PsyD or a PhD doctorate degree) offer psychotherapy services (talk therapy). They can be clinical psychologists or counseling psychologists. A psychotherapist is anyone who offers licensed talk therapy. 
  • Psychiatrists (MDs) are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing, treating, and helping to prevent mental health conditions. Unlike psychologists, psychiatrists can prescribe medication.
  • Licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) work with spouses, children, and family members on their relationship issues. 

What Does a Clinical Psychologist Do?

In order to most effectively treat clients, a clinical psychologist at Thriveworks in Novi, MI is well-versed in a variety of psychotherapeutic approaches, including the following:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
  • Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)
  • Cognitive restructuring
  • Psychodynamic therapy
  • Psychoeducation
  • Behavioral activation
  • Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR)
  • Progressive muscle relaxation
  • Meditation
  • Child behavior therapy
  • Lifestyle modifications
  • Exposure therapy
  • Affect regulation
  • Substance abuse and addiction counseling

What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)?

Cognitive behavioral therapy is an evidence-based approach to mental health issues that focuses on modifying maladaptive thoughts. In practice, that means a psychologist at Thriveworks who specializes in CBT might ask a series of questions to discover a client’s underlying belief systems. Someone might act in a certain way because they think a certain thing. By exposing those thoughts to the light, clients can often see the error of their ways and make lasting changes. CBT can work especially well for depression and anxiety. 

What Defines Good Mental Health?

Good mental health is defined by one’s relationships, one’s productivity, one’s feelings, and how a person copes with adversity. All of these things can fluctuate over the course of a lifetime. Someone who is depressed might not feel connected to other people. Someone who is anxious might not perform to their highest potential at work or school. But suffering from poor mental health does not mean that a person is defective. It just means that certain areas need more support and attention. That’s where a licensed psychologist at Thriveworks in Novi, MI can help.
