Anxiety
​ Anxiety often arises when we confront uncertainty—the awareness that life is unpredictable, and that we alone must choose our path within it. Rather than something to eliminate, anxiety can be a signal inviting us to examine what matters most. In our work together, we help clients explore this deeper meaning of their anxiety and rediscover a more authentic, grounded way of being in their lives.
Depression
At some point, we all encounter the heaviness that makes life feel empty—a sense that meaning has slipped from our grasp. Depression can feel like being cut off from the world, weighed down by questions that demand more than quick answers. Yet even in that darkness lies an invitation: to face what feels unbearable and discover what still calls you to live. Our work isn’t about escaping pain but helping you confront it—to uncover purpose, reclaim freedom, and make meaning in the midst of suffering.
Existential Therapy
At its core, Existential Therapy invites us to face the fundamental questions of being human—the inevitability of death, the burden and gift of freedom, the reality of our isolation, and the search for meaning in a world that offers no guarantees. Rather than avoiding these truths, we help clients engage with them directly. Through this process, individuals learn to confront their existence with openness, accept responsibility for their choices, and cultivate a deeper sense of peace and fulfillment in a life that is uniquely their own.
OUR WORK
Every person encounters moments when life feels uncertain—when loss, conflict, or change invites us to question who we are and what truly matters. These experiences are not just problems to fix but openings to deeper understanding. Whether you are mourning a loved one, searching for connection in your relationships, or seeking a greater sense of purpose, having a compassionate guide can help you navigate these questions. Our work blends established therapeutic approaches with existential insight to create a process uniquely suited to you. Together, we explore your values, choices, and experiences so you can shape a life story that feels authentic—one you can live with integrity and pride.

Waverly May is visiting Lake Michigan for the first time. But what does she hear as she walks down the path towards the beach? Are those monsters roaring? With dragons, slime monsters, and ogres on the loose, how can Waverly May survive? With the help of her creative parents, Waverly May learns that she can tame any monster that comes her way! In this delightful children’s story, the seemingly irrational fears that children experience are validated and turned into opportunities for bravery, growth, and adventure. Blake and Becky Kooi are licensed counselors who use their knowledge of child development to empower children and adults to cope with the fears, frustrations, and fulfillment of growing up. Through their work as counselors, Blake and Becky have noticed that many mental and emotional struggles come from how people have been taught to react to life’s obstacles. In Waverly May and the Monsters of Lake Michigan, children ages 4 to 9 will learn to overcome their fears while parents of all ages will learn to join their children in that battle.
