Nina Michon MA, TLLP, NCSP

Hi, I'm Nina, and I'm so glad you're here! As a school psychologist and a current doctoral candidate in counseling psychology at Wayne State University, I bring a deep passion for helping others navigate their unique challenges. I began my journey with a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Michigan State University, and I've since developed a special focus on working with LGBTQ+ individuals, those dealing with eating disorders, and neurodivergent populations. Many of my clients tend to struggle with longstanding anxiety, family dynamic challenges, impulse control difficulties, low self-esteem, and issues with distress tolerance.

Creating a safe, non-judgmental, and welcoming environment is at the heart of my practice. I treat eating disorders with a Health at Every Size approach, which allows me to support my clients in a way that honors their individual experiences and fosters true healing. I also enjoy collaborating with other providers, such as dietitians, and occupational therapists, and psychiatrists to best support my clients who struggle with eating challenges.

I believe that therapy should be as unique as you are, so I draw from various therapeutic approaches, including Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to best meet your needs. I love to utilize art and games when working with youth to help them practice and master new skills we are working on together.

In addition to psychotherapy services, I specialize in comprehensive psychological evaluations and school advocacy services. As a national certified school psychologist who has had hands on experience working in various school systems, I love helping students better understand how their brain works and improve their learning experiences in academic settings.

I'm here to support you on your journey, and I look forward to working together to help you find the path that's right for you.
