Alison Adlaf Li, LMSW

Whether you are looking for a therapist for diagnosis and treatment, or for greater self understanding and self compassion, I believe anyone can benefit from being in therapy! For over 17 years, I have been providing psychotherapy services to adults, adolescents and families, and in particular, students and staff from the University of Michigan and other local colleges and universities. My practice focuses on treating issues related to anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), trauma, personality disorders, autism spectrum disorders (Aspergers Syndrome), and adjustment issues, including stressors related to the workplace, family, and transitions within relational and other life arenas, especially and including gender identity.

My therapeutic modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, trauma-informed practice, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I provide short-term treatment, as well as longer-term, focused work. I value and respect all racial, ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds, and all sexual orientations, identities and genders.

I believe everyone - all of us - is doing the very best that we can. Therapy can help us to understand ourselves better, can make living with a mental health issue(s) less of a challenge, and can enrich our quality of life.

Note: At this time, all therapy is being conducted virtually via a secure online telehealth service
