ACCEPTING NEW MICHIGAN TELETHERAPY CLIENTS AS OF 6/1/26 As a social worker, Danica's approach to therapy is anti-oppressive. She is a straight, cis, straight-size, Filipina Asian American woman who strives to be a better accomplice to all races, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, disabilities, body sizes, faiths, and spiritualities. Danica believes in the therapeutic philosophy that life just sucks sometimes; sometimes a client wants a therapist to help it feel less sucky, and other times, they need a therapist to just actually listen to them. She also combines scientific, evidence-based practices and therapy treatments taught at the best social work school and program in the world with the people skills and street smarts from working in a local private practice to starting her own solo practice. She creates and communicates customized treatment plans to each person who walks into her therapy room or, in the case of teletherapy, appears on the computer screen. Her main areas of focus include anxiety (generalized anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, OCD), pregnancy (from infertility to postpartum to grieving due to miscarriage or abortion), and trauma (which not only includes PTSD, but also complex-PTSD/borderline personality disorder and identity-based trauma). Danica's ideal population is from young adults to middle-aged. However, some exceptions can be made for folks a bit younger or older. Please reach out if, after reading her bio, you think you would be a great fit. As a 1.5-generation Filipina-American, she personally understands the intersection of mental health with the Asian diaspora and therefore, encourages Asian-Americans to reach out for mental health services. Danica has recently completed her certificate in Sport Social Work from The University of Michigan in July 2025. Inspired by her long-time favorite self-care activity of endurance running, she noticed a growing trend of young adults turning to running half and full marathons as their new self-care activity, too. She decided to receive more training on how to care for the mental health of athletes from those who have been playing sports since childhood to nontraditional athletes who are just starting to appreciate what their bodies can do. Danica is also a former library social worker trained in bibliotherapy, which can be used as a standalone treatment or as a complement to other therapies to help with any mental health issue. Please check out the website listed to learn more about Danica's experience.

College and young adult years can be both exciting and overwhelming. Many students and young adults find themselves managing anxiety, depression, or grief while also trying to keep up with academic demands, relationships, work, and expectations from family or themselves. Feeling stressed, burned out, unmotivated, or emotionally drained does not mean you are failing — it means you are human and navigating a lot at once. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling. I work with college students, young adults, and adolescents using a client-centered, goal-oriented approach. Therapy is a collaborative process where we focus on what feels most pressing for you and develop practical strategies to help you cope more effectively with stress, emotions, and life transitions. I support individuals experiencing: * Anxiety and depression related to academic pressure, performance stress, and major life changes * Grief and loss, including losses that occur during college or early adulthood * Emotional overwhelm, burnout, difficulty with focus, and feeling “stuck” or disconnected * Relationship and family stress, especially as roles, independence, and boundaries shift * Autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and behavioral concerns in adolescents and young adults I use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and stress-reduction techniques to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and gain clarity during challenging seasons. Therapy should feel supportive, nonjudgmental, and empowering. Whether this is your first time seeking counseling or you are returning to therapy, my goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported as you work toward balance, confidence, and improved well-being.

*I’m a therapist at Mentella Health, a tele-health group private practice* Welcome! My name is Zena and I specialize in working with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, interpersonal concerns, and life challenges/adjustments. I have a MA in counseling and a BS in psychology and over five years working as a therapist in various outpatient settings. My approach to therapy is integrative; I work from a client-centered/humanistic lens incorporating elements of psychodynamic, existential, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and compassion-focused. Therapy is collaborative, there is no one size fits all approach to therapy, therefore I tailor my approach based on the needs of the individual. I believe the most important element of therapy is the therapeutic relationship, therefore I aim to be open-minded and authentic in the therapy room. My goal is to help clients gain insight by providing a safe, non-judgemental environment that fosters acceptance while also encouraging clients to work toward their goals (e.g. balancing acceptance with change). My ideal client is someone who is curious, open-minded, and willing to explore new prescriptives and how past experiences might be impacting how we currently engage with ourselves, others, and in the world. Many of my clients report increased self-awareness, self-acceptance, and ability to understand, accept, and regulate their internal experiences. When I am not providing therapy, I enjoy being in nature/hiking, spending time with my family and cats, and watching horror movies.

I offer a safe and supportive space to explore these challenges, develop coping strategies, and build a more fulfilling college experience.

Cognitive therapy primarily for clients with brain injuries.

You’re managing school, work, relationships, and everyone’s expectations — and people assume you’re fine. But underneath, you’re exhausted from keeping it together. You’ve even tried some self-care, but it’s not hitting like it used to. Many of the clients I work with are BIPOC, queer, and/or neurodivergent adults navigating anxiety, chronic stress, relational trauma, and major life transitions while working toward a greater sense of self and safety. Together, we'll untangle the patterns that keep you stuck and help you move through life with less pressure and more ease.

Finding joy starts with a single step, and reaching out is one of the bravest steps you can take. My role as your therapist is to guide you toward rediscovering the light within yourself—your joy, your strength, and your unique potential. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, as we gently untangle the patterns and barriers keeping you from living fully. Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, depression, or relationship challenges, I’m here to remind you that healing and growth are possible. Using a strength-based approach rooted in empathy and tailored techniques, I’ll support you as you take intentional steps toward the life you deserve—a life filled with clarity, confidence, and joy.

Getting to know yourself—who you truly are—can be one of the most challenging yet empowering experiences in life, especially if you're someone who’s been told you think too much, feel too much, or just are too much in general. If that sounds like you, then we should definitely talk. Clients often come to me because they’ve been misunderstood or boxed in elsewhere. Many of them are figuring out how to live outside the lines: queer folks, neurodivergent folks, people in non-traditional relationships, or people who just never quite felt “normal,” whatever that means. As a neurodivergent queer therapist, I’m right there with you. With roots in narrative therapy and trauma-informed work, I bring a client-led, conversational approach. I enjoy helping individuals and relationships see and make sense of the ways their pasts show up in their present, especially those navigating formative trauma, major identity or life changes, or relationship patterns that feel stuck on repeat. Therapy is supposed to be the place where you get to show up as your full, messy self without judgment. My job is to help you feel safe and grounded enough to do just that. If you’re ready to take the first step towards finding your way back to yourself, I’d love to walk alongside you. Please reach out for a free consultation!
