Hello and welcome! I’m Debbie Bletstein, a native of Metro Detroit. I am a licensed Master’s clinical social worker, having earned my MSW from the University of Michigan School of Social Work. I began my career working with children, adolescents, and transitional youth in the community mental health system serving diverse populations. In private practice, I found my passion for treating adults. My prior practice focused on youth allowed me a unique perspective to support adults with children in the home. With all populations, I have had the privilege to assist clients on their journeys navigating ADHD, anxiety, OCD, grief and loss, family dynamics, trauma, and other complex diagnoses.

​

I truly enjoy building rapport with my clients. My practice is patient-centered and strengths-based, focusing on the specific needs of each client I encounter. I utilize evidence-based approaches, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to help clients overcome OCD and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to build psychological flexibility and take meaningful steps toward their goals. I strive to support every client on their unique journey in an open and safe space. In partnership with you, we will create a specialized treatment approach that is representative of your desires and goals. I welcome your feedback throughout the therapeutic process. As humans, we sometimes find it difficult to embrace change, but I will be alongside you as you take those challenging and emotional steps.
