Our goal is that from the moment you initiate contact with us you feel welcome, safe and supported. It is our mission to collaborate with you to create a path to healing. We feel confident in the amazing team we have here at LCC. Our administration and therapists are full of kindness, compassion, and specialized skills to empower you on your journey to wellness. Our team works hard to cultivate an environment built on trust, respect and growth.

Overcoming obstacles and personal challenges

Lyon Counseling Center offers treatment that is effective, confidential, and individualized to meet your needs. We strive to empower individuals, families, and groups to achieve health and wellness through the therapeutic work done with our experienced counselors.

Through a collaborative process, we help you to develop strategies to overcome obstacles and personal challenges. Our offices are designed to provide a space that is safe, warm, and non-judgmental.

Individual

Working as a collaborative team, you and your therapist will define what problems keep you from living the life you want to live, come up with solutions and talk about the person you want to become. Our therapists take an eclectic approach to therapy. Therapy is tailored to meet the individual need of the client. Our therapists are specialized in a full range of concerns that bring individuals to therapy, which allows us to fun the best fit for each person seeking services.

Child and Adolescent

As children grow and develop, certain thoughts and behaviors emerge. It can often be difficult to know if these thoughts and behaviors are normal development or signs of something askew.

 

It can be quite concerning if your child struggles with academic issues, emotional or behavioral issues, or loneliness. You may notice changes in behavior, concentration, personality, or decision making. Maybe your child is acting out at home and school. Maybe your child talks of feeling depressed or anxious. These behaviors, thoughts and feelings may be impacting the family unit in substantial ways.

Parenting Support

We recognize that parents sometimes need external support whether or not they or their child(ren) have a mental health diagnosis. Being a parent is incredibly challenging. It can  be difficult to create structure, consistency and set boundaries. Our clinicians have specialized training in parent management and can help you strengthen your skills and confidence.

Marriage and Family

The family unit is a system — pull the string on one side and it affects all other parts. If one member of the family is struggling,  it can significantly alter the system. Members can be affected by many things – divorce, blending families, marriage, co-parenting, mental health concerns, and substance abuse just to name a few. This can lead to high levels of stress and anxiety.

Substance Use

It can be difficult for a person to know when substance abuse has become problematic. People drink and use substances to have fun and unwind. But, substances can also be used to deal with emotional pain.

 

If this type of use continues over time, people may become dependent. Substance abuse and addiction are serious issues that need to be dealt with immediately because the condition will continue to worsen over time and can lead to serious legal issues, family issues, and even premature death.

Telehealth/Remote

Lyon Counseling Center offers remote telehealth services for situations that may prevent an in-person therapy session.

Clinical Supervision

Clinical supervision is available for LLMSWs and LLPCs seeking to obtain a full license or a clinician looking to strengthen clinical skills. Individual and group options are available. Please contact our office for more information.

Presentations and Community Outreach

Lyon Counseling Center is an active community member committed to supporting, strengthening and empowering our area. If you are interested in having us out to your business to discuss mental health and wellness, our involvement with a community group, or event sponsorship, please contact our office.

Jeff is an amazing therapist and I opened up to him on the first visit. I was hesitant trying out a new therapist since I've had several in the past, but my doctor told me that a lot of his patients thank him for recommending Jeff. They've never personally met and he just went by word of mouth, but I'm so glad he referred me to Lyon Counseling. I told Jeff more the first day than I did after months with other therapists. He makes it a safe space and doesn't pressure you to do or discuss anything. Plus he brings his dog, Athena, and that's always a win in my book!

I haven’t interacted with all the counselors here, only Melissa. In just a few visits, I was already feeling better mentally. It’s great to have someone to just unload on and she listens patiently. We have a great connection and I highly recommend her if you just need an unbiased person to talk to, be it once a week or once a month. Seeking a mental health professional is nothing to be ashamed of and Melissa makes it feel like you’re talking to an old friend.

Would highly recommend. There was a bit of a waitlist, but it really was worth the wait. Everyone I have interacted with at the clinic has been professional and so welcoming. I have a family member that referred me here and she sees a different therapist. Both of us have been impressed at the caliber of clinicians here. They provide a safe, non-judge mental space. South Lyon is lucky to have this clinic.

Melissa has been exactly what I have been looking for in a therapist. Since the very first appointment nothing but meaningful conversations that help me recognize my patterns and took a hard look at the issues at hand. She is good at providing guidance to the conversation and I know that anything I share will be met with a thoughtful and supportive response. Having empathy is vital in being a great therapist, especially when dealing with vulnerable issues. Melissa is truly a gifted and beautiful soul. I would recommend her to anyone.
