Nathan Seeley (He/Him), TLLP

Ages Seen:

Treatment Focus: anxiety, depression, substance use, adjustment disorders, children

Hello! My name is Nathan Seeley, a therapist currently holding a Temporary Limited License in Psychology (TLLP). I earned my master’s degree in clinical psychology with a concentration in applied behavior analysis (ABA) for Michigan School of Psychology. My clinical work includes a history of ABA-based interventions with children on the autism spectrum as well as individual and group therapy with men suffering from substance use disorder in an inpatient treatment facility.

Through my professional experiences and education, I have developed a specialization in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, adjustment disorders, grief, and substance use disorders amongst a diverse clientele which has included adults and children of various cultural, economic, age, and neurological backgrounds. I employ therapeutic style that incorporates existential, humanistic, and emotion-focused therapies in a client-centered approach that focuses on what the fostering change that is meaningful foremost to the client.

I utilize empathy, unconditional positive regard, and cultural humility to tune therapy specifically to each client. I understand that my views are inextricably linked with my personal experiences and should not be imposed on the experiences of others. Therefore, I view therapy as a reflective practice wherein my job is primarily to listen and learn of the client’s perspective , then collaborate with them in pursuit of goals that they find meaningful. I place an importance on working within the client’s family and living environment with special consideration of differences in culture, socioeconomic, and health/daily functioning.

Choosing to seek therapy is a decision to make oneself vulnerable in a way that probably feels uncomfortable or scary. Understanding how daunting this can be, it is my obligation to create an environment in which a sense of trust and safety is always present, emotions are validated, and the goals pursued are meaningful to the client.
