About Constance

Constance Guthrie, LMSW, helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, low self-esteem, depression, trauma, parenting challenges, ADHD, and life transitions. She focuses on practical ways to manage emotions and everyday pressures. Her approach aims to make hard moments feel more manageable for people seeking support.

Constance listens without judging and treats each person as the expert on their own life. She uses straightforward, goal-focused conversations to identify what is getting in the way and what can change.

Background and approach

Sessions often include simple skill-building and real-life practice, not just talking about problems. Her training is in social work, and she brings seven years of experience to sessions in Michigan.

Constance draws on a mix of methods to match what a person needs in the moment, including cognitive methods that look at thinking patterns and mindfulness-based tools to calm the body and mind. She also uses strategies that help with emotional regulation and motivation, so people can make steady progress even when change feels slow.

Practical tools for coping with panic, impulsivity, or chronic pain are offered when helpful. Constance aims to help people leave sessions with clear next steps they can try between meetings. People choosing to work with her can expect a warm, down-to-earth tone and a focus on skills that fit daily life.

Constance encourages small, achievable goals and checks in on what works and what needs adjusting.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and supported while they decide what changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teaches practical exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for regulating strong emotions and managing impulsive behaviors, which can be useful for anger, panic, or intense mood swings.

Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, try out approaches, and adjust plans based on what helps most. The aim is to match techniques to a person's daily life and needs rather than follow a rigid program.

Online sessions make this work flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and use of worksheets or guided exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when video would be distracting or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging offer quick check-ins, brief coaching between sessions, and a way to practice new skills in the moment. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep progress moving forward.
