About Ryan
Ryan Huling is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anger, anxiety, and life transitions. He keeps things straightforward and works to meet each person where they are. He aims to build a trusting working relationship and to help clients find practical steps forward.
With six years of clinical experience, Ryan blends several approaches to match what a person needs. He uses client-centered methods to focus on each person's goals and perspective.
Background and approach
He also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and develop new coping skills. Ryan incorporates mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of emotions. Motivational interviewing is part of his toolkit when people are weighing changes like addressing substance use or shifting patterns of behavior.
He also brings psychodynamic ideas to help people understand how past relationships can shape current struggles. In sessions he emphasizes honesty, curiosity, and practical problem solving. He helps people build self-awareness, tap into strengths, and take small steps that add up.
Whether someone is dealing with grief, parenting stress, addiction concerns, relationship and communication problems, or career uncertainty, he works to create a clear plan together. Outside of work Ryan is a husband and father of three who enjoys the outdoors and hard rock music. That life experience shapes a down-to-earth style and an emphasis on real-world change.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person and their goals. It involves active listening and creating a respectful space where clients set the pace and direction of change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches concrete strategies for changing unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy trains attention and awareness so people can notice reactions like anger and choose different responses.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Ryan will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust as progress is made, treating therapy as a collaborative process.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make counseling more accessible. Video lets people work face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for shorter check-ins and flexibility for those with busy schedules or caregiving duties. These options are intended to make it easier to keep therapy consistent and relevant to everyday life.
