About Us

From a Quiet Library to a Michigan-Wide Mission

Grace Counseling began with a simple mission: to ensure no one in our community has to suffer in silence because they can’t afford help.

Founded in 2009 by Suzanne Sebree providing free counseling at a local church library, we have grown into a registered non-profit with a team of 20+ specialists helping our neighbors across Michigan.

A Space Designed for Peace

Healing Beyond the Office

Whether you're a client of ours or just a neighbor looking for a quiet place to reflect, our outdoor spaces are open to the public year round.

Stories of Hope & Healing

Hear from your neighbors about how professional support and a little extra grace helped them navigate life’s hardest times.

"I had a scheduling issue, and Suzanne went above and beyond to find me a counselor. Times are busy, and scheduling
appointments and finding the right fit can be stressful; however, Suzanne scheduled me with Jennifer, and I had the
best experience. Jennifer is compassionate; she listens and gives you a stepping stone to start with healing. I am
very appreciative. Thank you, Jennifer and Suzanne."

"Vanessa is my therapist and has helped me overcome obstacles I never thought I could. She has seen me through my best and my worst
and never judges. She's hard on me when I need it and is also just as soft. It's like talking to a best friend who doesn't judge
you no matter what you say. Vanessa, thank you for being you and you are always more appreciated than you know. This place is a
great place whether you want to do in person or virtual so you feel more comfortable in your own home. Derek is amazing and is always
so welcoming. Thanks"

We don’t believe in a "random" match. Our intake specialist talks with you to understand your specific challenges, personality, and goals. With over 18 licensed professionals on staff, we take great care to pair you with the person best equipped to help you heal.

The first session is a "get-to-know-you" time. We’ll discuss what brought you in, your history, and what you hope to achieve. There’s no pressure to share everything at once—we move at your pace to build a foundation of trust.

Not at all. While we offer a faith-based perspective for those who desire it, we respect every client’s unique spiritual path. We provide professional, judgment-free care to everyone in our Michigan community, regardless of their religious background.

Your comfort is our priority. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we can easily move your session into one of our cozy indoor offices or switch to a virtual Telehealth visit from your home.

Absolutely!  We want you to feel 100% comfortable.  If the first match isn't right, we'll help you transition to another specialist on our team.

We accept most insurances and offer sliding-scale rates for those paying out of pocket based on personal need.  Find more information about our billing here.

Standard individual sessions are 55 minutes.
