Dr. Blandina Rose-willis , LPC

Dr. Blandina Rose-willis uses a client-centered approach that puts the person's experience first. She listens closely and helps people name what matters to them. Her style is practical and direct, aimed at helping people move forward with clearer goals.

She brings three years of counseling experience across community, college, and private settings. Early in her career she worked with people rebuilding their lives after addiction and incarceration, helping with job skills, self-esteem, and day-to-day problem solving. She later supported college students who were struggling with classes and career direction.

In community college settings she worked with people facing homelessness, trauma, single parenthood, and other urgent concerns. She has led group counseling as well as individual sessions, and she notes group work as a professional strength. Her background also includes supervising staff and teaching communication and problem-solving skills.

Dr. Rose-willis describes her approach as holistic. She helps people consider how health, spirit, relationships, sexuality, exercise, and self-care fit together. She emphasizes unconditional positive regard - offering support and options so people can find their own solutions and new life skills.

She has experience addressing career questions, stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, LGBT concerns, grief, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also works with issues such as body image, codependency, fertility concerns, and forgiveness. Her practice is based in Michigan and sessions are conducted in English.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Dr. Rose-willis often draws on client-centered therapy, which centers on listening and reflecting so the person sets the pace and goals. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, accepting space to sort through difficult feelings and choices.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a hands-on method that looks at patterns of thought and behavior and introduces specific strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits. That approach is useful for concerns like stress, depression, or addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allow therapy to fit into busy schedules. Video calls let people use visual cues during sessions, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat are convenient for short check-ins or ongoing support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to maintain consistency and to access support from a distance.
