Our therapists provide depression counseling in West Bloomfield, MI

Hi, I'm Ashley, an LLMSW passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I strive to create a safe space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. My approach is compassionate, strengths-based, and client-centered, helping individuals build healthier coping skills, improve self-awareness, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. 

I use a compassionate, client-centered approach that integrates strengths-based therapy, CBT, and trauma-informed care. I help clients build coping skills, improve self-awareness, and navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges in a supportive, nonjudgmental space focused on growth and healing. 

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. I am committed to creating a supportive space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered, and I would be honored to be part of your journey toward healing and growth.

My name is Dr. Payton Jackson III. I am a licensed clinical social worker and hold a doctorate in education. I have 31 years of experience in the fields of social work and education. I have worked with family counseling, individual counseling, individuals in substance abuse recovery, youth ages 14 to 18, and as a counselor, dean of students, assistant principal, and principal in high schools. These experiences have taught me that life's challenges are ongoing, and I believe that we are not designed to deal with life's journey on our own. I enjoy working with people to overcome these challenges. 

My client-centered and strength-based approaches provide assistance to individuals in dealing with life's expectancies, both planned and unplanned. Self-empowerment and an understanding of what can be controlled and what cannot is essential. Working in step and together in a therapeutic relationship can make a positive difference in this journey. 

You are not alone! The pathway of being the best person for yourself is real. Life and all it has to offer will definitely show up during this journey. You have the ability to overcome and thrive in the midst of this walk. Let's work together to have the best experiences possible on our life's journey, stay encouraged, and make an appointment with me.
