Jayden Baehr, MA TLLP

I am a master’s level psychologist and a graduate of The Michigan School of Psychology’s Clinical Psychology Program. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, existential dread, anger, and poor self-image. I provide psychological testing, family, group, and individual therapy.

 My goal is to provide a warm and welcoming environment, that promotes self-growth and healing. I find that therapy is often perceived as a pathway to uncovering the root of problems or issues in one’s life, however, that is only the first step, we then use the past to improve the present and the future. With my clinical knowledge and the expertise that you hold about yourself, we can work together to make healthy positive changes in your life, through the development of healthy coping skills, meditation practices, reducing stress, and self-discovery. Whether you choose to let me partake in this journey or if you need a referral, I would be glad to help.

“I provide people with a safe, non-judgmental space where they can process and understand themselves, others, and their situation better. By being listened to and having your thoughts and feelings reflected back to you, you will gain insight into what your problems are, where they originated, and what to do about them.

I cannot tell you what it is you need to do, as I will never know you or your situation better than you do. However, I believe that together we can uncover what it is that you need and how to get there. Whether I become your therapist or help you find someone that is a better fit for your needs, I would love to be a part of your journey if you are seeking help to improve your mental health.”
