Our therapists provide family therapy in Novi, MI

I'm a licensed professional counselor dedicated to helping professionals navigate leadership pressures, career transitions, identity development, and emotional well-being. My background spans workforce development, talent strategy, and mental health practice. I've led statewide initiatives and built programs to strengthen mental health and professional readiness. This gives me deep understanding of how workplace stress, organizational dynamics, and personal expectations shape daily life. I work primarily with professionals navigating demanding careers or transitions—many facing burnout, stress, or uncertainty about their next steps. 

My approach blends reflective work with concrete tools. I help clients explore identity, challenge limiting beliefs, strengthen emotional regulation, and reconnect with purpose using CBT, Strengths-Based Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Therapy is a judgment-free space where you can be honest and gain strategies to move through challenges with clarity.

If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or ready for something to shift, you're not alone and I'm here to help. I meet you with authenticity and compassion, helping you process what you're carrying, heal from the past, and build confidence to move forward with clarity. Together, we can explore what's possible and help you toward the life you want to live.

I specialize in using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients navigate anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, and life transitions.

My approach is collaborative and practical, blending evidence-based strategies with genuine connection. Together, we will build skills to manage distress, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe therapy should be a space where you don’t have to shrink or codeswitch—where your identity is affirmed and your voice matters. Whether you're working through daily stressors or deeper emotional wounds, I aim to support you with empathy, honesty, and tools you can actually use in your everyday life.

I am an EMDR certified professional who can help clients get through any storm whether it is divorce, chapter 7 bankruptcy, job loss, heavy financial losses, sex addiction, drug addiction or loss of loved ones who passed away suddenly. I can help clients build new treatment plans, achieve the next level or assist in your self re-invention of your personality or ego or help let go of trauma. I typically work with young people 18 years old to seniors going into retirement or single/widowed people wanting to create new bonded relationships/family relationships with people. 

Clients can expect a fast turn around or planned ascent towards real goals. Clients learn how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Humanistic Psychotherapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming, Bibliotherapy or Cinematherapy can create new solutions or possibilities for the future timeline. 

We invite you to take the next step into transforming your life by scheduling a virtual appointment and immediately gaining results for yourself and taking bold steps to create a life of true fulfillment, happiness, peace and love.

Curtis Thornton is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with 20 years of experience in the mental health field. Curtis specializes in providing therapy to individuals attempting to overcome challenges related to substance use and/or mental health disorders. The areas he has treated include, but are not limited to, relapse prevention, symptom management, enhancing self-esteem, relationship building, building a strong family structure, and recognizing and coping with thoughts, feelings, and emotions. While the goals vary based on the individual, one constant is shared by all: the client directs the course of care, and they choose the desired outcome. Things that people experience shape their lives, some for the better and others sending them down a path for which they were unprepared and need assistance in overcoming. Whether it be illness, substance use, family issues, relationship challenges, difficulty expressing emotions, or any other challenge, hope is possible.

Curtis completed his Master of Social Work (MSW) at Eastern Michigan University. He is a Certified Advanced Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CAADC) and a Certified Clinical Supervisor (CCS). Prior to earning his MSW, Curtis provided direct care and education to individuals with substance use disorders and/or diagnosed mental health conditions. In this capacity, he was able to work with individuals in overcoming symptoms that had negatively impacted their lives. This phase of Curtis’s career solidified his belief that all individuals need to be treated with love and care, in a way that focuses on the uniqueness of the person and allows them the opportunity to live the life they envision. Curtis knew from the moment he graduated that his dream was to provide therapeutic services to individuals who felt "lost", "hopeless", or whose lives were not being lived in a way that represented their authentic self.

As a therapist, Curtis works with you to look at the big picture of what is occurring in your life. Taking a look at thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and expectations allows you to see what has worked, what has not worked, and what could work with modification. Curtis is well trained in recognizing ways in which we block change, and he has an expertise in overcoming these blocks. He is able to pull from numerous therapeutic models, as together you create a plan to address your specific needs. Curtis believes that therapy works best when you work as a team in moving you towards your goals. He also believes that all individuals deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. All individuals have an inner strength that allows them to overcome the obstacles that hold them back from reaching their goals. Curtis will assist you in finding or utilizing this inner strength throughout your course of care. If you are looking for a therapist who is empathetic, compassionate and able to see you beyond the challenges that led to therapy, Curtis could be the therapist for you. Whether you select him or not, congratulations on starting this journey of change.
