    About Ryan

    Ryan Huling welcomes people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the next step. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who aims to meet clients where they are and help them move forward. Ryan is a husband and father of three who enjoys the outdoors and hard rock music.

    Ryan treats therapy as a relationship that grows over time. He asks for honesty and openness from clients and models that same approach himself. Sessions focus on building self-awareness, identifying strengths, and breaking problems into manageable steps.

    He blends several practical approaches to fit each person’s needs. Motivational Interviewing is used to support change when motivation feels low. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Client-centered and mindfulness ideas help people feel heard and grounded while they work through tough emotions.

    With six years of experience as a therapist, Ryan brings steady support to concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and communication problems, parenting challenges, grief, addiction, and trauma. He pays attention to patterns related to attachment, abandonment, guilt, and shame when those come up.

    Ryan invites prospective clients to take a first small step. He will work with each person to find practical next steps, using strengths and honest conversation to guide change.

  2. How Ryan blends approaches in online work

    Ryan often uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their goals and find internal reasons to change; this approach is helpful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making a change. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person's experience and priorities so sessions feel collaborative. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce distress.

    Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Ryan works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration shapes session focus and practical steps between meetings.

    If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking to know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively at a distance, and Ryan will help adapt activities and goals so they work in your everyday life.
