Remote sessions with practical, story-based methods

Donald "Don" Collier offers remote sessions for Michigan clients using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. He combines structured skill-building with attention to personal narratives to address a wide range of relational and emotional concerns while working collaboratively with each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thought and behavior patterns that contribute to distress and to develop concrete strategies and experiments for change. Narrative Therapy is offered to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, and to consider new ways of framing experiences that support preferred directions. Don works with clients to choose which approach or mix of approaches fits their situation and goals. Sessions are tailored to an individual or family rhythm, with emphasis on clear communication about what to work on and how progress will be pursued. Remote formats are used to maintain contact in ways that suit the client, including synchronous video and phone sessions or text-based options for more frequent check-ins.
