Our licensed Staff therapists offer a variety of therapeutic approaches to assist our clients' healing through exploring their inner resources and hopes. Additionally, we take consideration to offer a "space for faith," knowing that spirituality is often a key component to a person's resilience for some of our clients.

Introducing: Parina Davis-Usher, MA, LPC, ATR!

Parina's therapeutic approach is rooted in Person-Centered Therapy, creating a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients guide the direction of their sessions while developing insight and self-understanding. She also integrates elements of Gestalt Therapy, emphasizing present-moment awareness and helping clients connect with their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in the here and now.

Parina has held multiple roles in child development and education, including First-Grade Teacher, Pre-Kindergarten Teacher, Art Teacher, Assistant Teacher, and After-Care Provider. This diverse background allows her to approach therapy with a deep understanding of developmental stages and learning styles.

In addition to her clinical work, Parina has facilitated both girls-only and co-ed (unisex) groups focused on building self-esteem and self-confidence. These groups incorporate meaningful discussions and creative expression centered on topics such as healthy relationships, bullying, communication skills, personal hygiene, and emotional wellness. She has also co-led a Summer Peace Camp for children ages 6–12 and a Teen Empowerment Camp for youth ages 13–18, both designed to foster self-awareness, emotional growth, and personal empowerment.

Parina is also a published author of the children’s book "I Thought I Heard an Angry Bear", which explores themes of fear and anxiety.

Please call us at 248-474-4701 to schedule with Parina!
