About Brad

Brad Maliszewski is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. He focuses on practical support and clear steps families and individuals can use to manage everyday pressures.

Brad tends to start with what matters most to the client. He listens for communication patterns and emotional triggers, then works with people to try new ways of speaking and relating. Sessions often include problem-solving for things like anger, intimacy concerns, blended family dynamics, or separation and divorce.

He also helps people facing guilt, shame, isolation, and uncertainty about life purpose. Brad uses a mix of approaches to meet different needs, aiming to strengthen resilience and improve day-to-day functioning. His work emphasizes small, doable changes that add up over time.

Clients can expect a steady focus on understanding personal history and current relationships. That might mean looking at long-standing patterns or trying cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts. The goal is clearer communication, better boundaries, and more satisfying connections with others.

Brad is based in Michigan and works with people who want to address family and relationship concerns alongside related personal issues. He keeps language direct and practical so busy parents and caregivers can apply what they learn between sessions.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client's experience back in simple language so people feel heard and understood; it helps when emotions or relationships feel confusing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and offers practical tools for changing patterns like anxiety or anger. The Gottman Method concentrates on communication and conflict skills that support healthier relationship interactions when trust or connection feels frayed.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to one method alone.

Confirm the available session options before booking to know how online visits are scheduled. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into busy family routines, shortening commute time, and making it easier to keep regular appointments. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when life is hectic or for longer sessions when deeper conversations are needed. Talk with the therapist about what format and timing would fit your schedule and needs so sessions can be practical and useful.
