About Me

Care that's personal, not clinical

I'm Andrew Stege, a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor (LLPC) based in Michigan. I bring genuine curiosity and attention to every session, my goal is to understand what's really going on for you, not just move through a checklist.

As an LLPC, I practice under the supervision of a fully licensed clinician, so you benefit from experienced oversight in addition to your work with me. I also keep my caseload intentionally small, so you're never just a name on a schedule.

I work with teens and adults on a wide range of concerns, drawing on Psychodynamic, ACT, CBT, and DBT-informed approaches to build a course of treatment suited to you rather than a fixed protocol.

My Approach

Several tools,
one purpose

I draw on a few complementary approaches so that treatment fits you, rather than a one-size-fits-all script. Together, we'll find the right balance of insight, acceptance, and practical skills.

Psychodynamic

Depth-Oriented Therapy

We'll examine how your history, relationships, and patterns you may not fully recognize continue to shape your present. Understanding the root of an issue is often what makes change last.

ACT

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

Rather than fighting difficult thoughts and feelings, we'll work on holding them with more flexibility, so you can get clear on what matters most to you and start living accordingly.

CBT

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

A practical framework for understanding how your thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another, so we can identify unhelpful patterns and build ones that serve you better.

DBT-Informed

Dialectical Behavior Therapy Skills

We'll bring in DBT skills, including distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and mindfulness, to help you navigate intense moments and feel steadier day to day.

Who I Work With

You don't need to be in crisis to start

🌊

Anxiety & Depression

Persistent worry, low mood, burnout, or a background sense of dread. We'll work to understand what's driving it and loosen its hold on your daily life.

🌱

Trauma & PTSD

Whether it happened recently or years ago, trauma deserves care and patience. I offer a safe space to work through it at a pace that feels right for you.

🎓

Teens, Young Adults & College Students

Identity questions, school stress, social pressure, and the broader ups and downs of this stage of life. I offer grounded, practical support suited to where you are.

🔄

Life Transitions & Relationships

Breakups, career changes, grief, and other major life shifts. Transitions can unsettle your sense of who you are, and therapy can help you find your footing again.

Common Questions

Questions people ask before reaching out

What does "LLPC" mean, and who oversees my care?

LLPC stands for Limited Licensed Professional Counselor, a Michigan credential for therapists working toward full licensure. I practice under the ongoing supervision of a fully licensed clinician, so you receive experienced oversight in addition to my direct attention to your care.

How soon can I start?

There's no waitlist. After a free 15-minute call, we can typically schedule your first full session that same week.

Do you accept insurance?

Sessions are private-pay: $110 for ongoing sessions, $140 for your first intake. I accept cash or credit card, so there's no insurance paperwork or claims to manage.

What do online sessions look like?

Sessions take place on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You'll just need a quiet, private space and a device with internet access. Many clients find telehealth more comfortable and easier to keep up with than in-person visits. Please note: I'm currently licensed to see clients located in Michigan only.

What if I'm not sure therapy is right for me?

That uncertainty is common, and it's worth discussing directly. The free consultation is a low-pressure conversation about what's going on for you and whether working together feels like a good fit.

What modalities do you use?

I primarily draw on Psychodynamic therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and DBT-informed skills. Treatment is shaped around you rather than a fixed protocol applied to every client.
