John Daley, LMSW, SSW

Welcome, my name is John Daley. There are many challenges impacting individuals, families and communities today. I strive to provide a safe, confidential environment that allows clients to explore their needs and to pursue their goals in a compassionate yet challenging atmosphere. I am Christian (Catholic) and use my faith to help guide me in my work with clients, and I am committed to being non-judgmental and supportive with all of my clients. My goal in therapy is to provide clients with opportunities to identify their needs, abilities, strengths and weaknesses to enable them to enhance their emotional and relationship skills and to improve their personal potential and optimal well-being.  My primary interest is in helping young adults (18+), adults, parents, and educational staff (teachers, aides/paraprofessionals, support staff, and administrators) navigate through these very difficult times in our complex world. 

I have worked for more than 30 years as a Social Worker in the schools, providing a wide range of support services to at-risk youth, students having certified disabilities in schools, their families, and the teaching staff/faculty that work with young people. I have a Master's of Social Work License from the State of Michigan, having earned a Master's degree in Social Work (Wayne State University), with an emphasis in Mental Health, and in Family, Youth, and Children. I have a Bachelor's degree in Secondary Education (Northern Michigan University) with teaching experience at the secondary level.

Join me, and let's get to the work of improving your life in the world that you live in!
