Hello and welcome! I am Sierra Gardner a Licensed Master Social Worker-Clinical (LMSW)/Therapist in Michigan. My educational background is in clinical Social Work from Michigan State University. I have practiced in the field of social work for 11 years, and providing therapeutic services for 3 years in office, in home, and online (teletherapy/telehealth).
I provide compassionate, non judgmental services to help navigate life challenges, and help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. I have provided services to age demographics across the lifespan as well as group work.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
