About

Benita Koyton brings over 20 years of clinical experience and is committed to creating a space where clients feel safe, valued, and genuinely listened to. She offers an environment in which people can speak freely, explore openly, and be themselves without fear of judgment.

She provides a calm setting for examining thoughts, emotions, and experiences at each client’s own pace. Whether clients are navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, or major life changes, she recognizes how isolating those experiences can feel, especially when it seems like no one is really listening.

Her approach is collaborative and compassionate, grounded in evidence-based practices and guided by authenticity and genuine care. She views therapy as a partnership - clients know themselves best and she walks beside them, listening deeply, helping make sense of what weighs on them, and supporting their journey toward healing, clarity, and feeling more like themselves again. She is licensed as MI LMSW 6801086565, which means Michigan Licensed Master Social Worker.
