My name is Arlene MacEachran and I am a Clinical Social Worker/Therapist with over 25 years of experience. I hold a Master's degree in Social Work from Wayne State University, and I am passionate about helping children, adolescents, and adults overcome their challenges and achieve their goals.

Throughout my career, I have developed effective communication and listening skills that allow me to connect with my clients and understand their unique needs. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating through depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, self esteem issues, grief and loss and relationship/family issues. 

My approach to therapy is centered around helping my clients utilize their strengths and gain the confidence to make necessary and lasting changes. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, strength based therapy and solution focused therapy in my approach to treatment. I am determined and motivated to help others overcome their obstacles and live fulfilling lives.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any other mental health issue, I am here to help. I offer a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings and work towards a brighter future.

Thank you for considering me as your therapist. I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your goals!
