Counseling Philosophy:
The counseling portion of our center draws upon Adlerian principles of tolerance, patience and encouragement. An integrative approach to psychology is used in the clinical setting using traditional methods of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), as well as integrative approaches using Mindfulness based practices, Meditation and the ancient practices of yoga. Therapeutic treatments will be based on individual needs and interests.
Psychological services are tailored to meet the needs of the individual. Through various treatment modalities, individuals will have an opportunity to explore unhealthy life patterns, address immediate personal challenges, and explore alternative ways of dealing with personal conflict/turmoil. The most important thing is the quality of your life TODAY. That being said, there are usually patterns of behaviors that have brought you to where you are today and we will take some time to explore those issues (but not dwell), so that you can move on to a healthier, happier life. Dr. Dilsworth uses mindfulness based strategies to enhance overall self-soothing and self-care opportunities.

LANSING, Mich. — Today, Governor Whitmer signed House Bills
5412-5416, which increase access to health care for Michiganders through
telemedicine and remote patient monitoring services. The governor also
signed Senate Bill 940 into law.
“I was pleased to sign bills today that will increase access to
healthcare in Michigan by ensuring that telemedicine and remote patient
monitoring services will be covered by insurers and by Medicaid,” said *Governor
Whitmer *in her signing letter to the Legislature. “These bills codify
significant pieces of Executive Order 2020-86, which broadly expanded
access to telemedicine as part of Michigan’s emergency response to the
COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, the virtues of telemedicine are not unique
to this moment, so Michiganders will benefit from reduced costs, increased
accessibility, and lower transmission rates of infectious diseases at the
doctor’s office for years to come.”
*House Bills 5412, 5413, 5414, 5415, and 5416* make up a bill package
designed to facilitate remote provision of healthcare services. The bills
require health insurance companies and group/non-group healthcare services
to cover telemedicine visits without requiring in-person visits. The bill
package was sponsored by Representative Hank Vaupel, R-Howell (HB 5412),
Representative Doug Wozniak, R-Shelby Twp. (HB 5413), Representative Phil
Green, R-Huron Twp. (HB 5414), Representative Frank Liberati, D-Allen Park
(HB 5415), and Representative Mary Whiteford, R-Allegan (HB 5416)
*Senate Bill 940* delays the principal residence exemption application
deadline under certain circumstances related to the COVID state of
emergency. The bill was sponsored by Senator Roger Victory, R-Grand Haven.
