Care that meets you where you are

Beyond general outpatient care, Great Lakes Clinical offers structured programming for specific presentations that benefit from a more focused clinical lens. These specialty tracks bring together psychiatric and therapeutic expertise around conditions — including anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, and perinatal mental health — where integrated, condition-specific care meaningfully improves the course of treatment.

Some conditions benefit from a clinician with focused training. Our specialty programs are organized around the diagnostic categories that present most often in adult outpatient behavioral health, staffed by clinicians with additional training in each area.

• Anxiety disorders
• Mood disorders
• Trauma and PTSD
• Perinatal mental health
• OCD
• Grief and loss
• Workplace burnout

Psychiatric care at Great Lakes Clinical begins with a thorough diagnostic evaluation — not a checklist, but a genuine clinical conversation about history, context, and what has or hasn't worked before. Medication management is calibrated over time with the patient's own account of their experience as a primary data point, and psychiatrists here coordinate directly with therapists when patients are receiving both services.

Our psychiatric care is delivered by physicians who completed an MD or DO, a four-year residency in psychiatry, and who hold board certification from the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. Visits are scheduled at the frequency your care requires.

• Diagnostic psychiatric evaluation
• Ongoing psychiatric medication management
• Coordination with primary care & specialty providers
• Care for mood disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, trauma, perinatal mental health, and major life transitions
• Telehealth or in-person at your preference

Secure video sessions are available for both psychiatric and therapeutic appointments, conducted on a HIPAA-compliant platform that requires nothing more than a private space and a reliable connection. For patients in Michigan navigating distance, unpredictable schedules, or the preference for care from home, telehealth at Great Lakes Clinical offers the same clinical depth as in-person sessions.

Where clinically appropriate, both psychiatric care and psychotherapy are available through HIPAA-compliant telehealth. The same clinicians, the same care — delivered to wherever you can find a quiet, private space within your state of residence.

• Telepsychiatry medication management
• Teletherapy for psychotherapy and couples care
• Secure, HIPAA-compliant platform
• Equal-fee, in-network billing where your plan permits

Individual therapy at this practice is matched to the clinician whose training and approach align with what a patient actually needs — not simply who has an opening. Sessions draw on cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and acceptance-based frameworks depending on the presenting picture, and the pace of the work is set with both clinical intention and the patient's own readiness in mind.

Our therapists are independently licensed (LCSW, LMFT, LMHC, LPC, PsyD, or PhD) and matched to your care based on your goals and the modalities best suited to them. Sessions are typically scheduled weekly or biweekly to start.

• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
• Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills
• Psychodynamic and supportive psychotherapy
• Trauma-focused care
• Perinatal and postpartum-specific therapy

Relational work here takes seriously that the system around a person is often where change needs to happen. Couples and family sessions are conducted by therapists with specific training in relational modalities, and the focus stays on patterns and communication rather than on adjudicating who is right.

Relationships are part of behavioral health. Our couples and family clinicians are trained in evidence-based systemic and relational modalities, and care is delivered with the same evidence base as our individual treatment.

• Couples therapy (Emotionally Focused Therapy, Gottman Method-informed)
• Family therapy for adults and adult-child family units
• Parent guidance for adults navigating parenting under stress
