About
As someone who has personally experienced trauma, I bring an empathetic and authentic understanding of how it shapes daily life, and I believe in helping clients use evidence-based practices and guided self-exploration to integrate their fragmented memories, both painful and positive, into a coherent, meaningful life narrative that supports healing and growth.
I am a Limited Licensed Master Social Worker with 4 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I’ve had the privilege of working with diverse populations and helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. My goal is to create a compassionate and safe environment where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to rediscover their strengths and begin their journey toward healing.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Wayne State University. I use a client-centered and trauma-informed approach, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices to help clients identify patterns, build emotional resilience, and develop tools for lasting change in their daily lives.
I believe that everyone has the capacity to heal and grow when provided with the right support and guidance. My goal is to help clients restore balance, find clarity, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Together, we will create a path toward emotional freedom and sustainable well-being.

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.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Licensed Master Social Worker - Clinical (LMSW-Clinical)
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
Megan: My go-to approach for couple’s therapy is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I find the best benefit in CBT because it helps clients understand how thoughts, feelings, and actions are all connected. I also focus on communication skills.
Carri: My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is helping them understand communication styles that foster respect. I help them find the connection that brought them together in the first place. I prefer to look at individual strengths because so much of interpersonal conflict is centered on losing one's identity.
Megan: I teach the following tools in couple’s therapy: communication skills, active listening, relationship growth activities, and soft start-ups for difficult conversations.
Carri: I teach communication skills, highlight rules for fair fighting, and look for areas of compromise. I borrow techniques from CBT, DBT, the Gottman Method, and overall mindfulness.
Megan: I know a client is making meaningful progress in couple’s therapy when they have an improvement in overall communication and are discussing things openly and honestly.
Carri: I know a couple is making progress when they can maneuver through conflict without them reverting back to their old patterns. They are comfortable communicating with their partner.
Megan: Clients can supplement their time in couples therapy through journaling, relationship growth activities, working on communication skills, and spending quality time together.
Carri: Clients can supplement their time in couples/marriage counseling with dedicated time for connecting with each other.
Megan: To prepare for your first couples therapy session, clients can begin to make a list identifying the top issues to work on. Journaling your thoughts and feelings and bringing the journal to therapy is also helpful.
Carri: To prepare for your first couples/marriage counseling session, I encourage couples to reflect on what strengths they bring to the relationship. At the same time, acceptance of your role in the conflict is necessary for positive growth.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
If you and your significant other struggle to connect, prioritize intimacy, or communicate effectively, you might worry about the fate of your relationship or even think about calling it quits.
