Hi, I'm Julie Schillim PhD LLP LPC LMHC, a counseling psychologist and mental health counselor in Michigan and Florida, based in Grand Rapids. I have worked in mental health for over twenty years. I started in community mental health, in outpatient therapy and I also completed autism and developmental evaluations. I also have my PhD in organizational psychology which provides an additional layer of expertise and support for those struggling in the workplace or in leadership roles.Many of the adults I work with have spent years wondering why some things feel so much harder for them than they seem to for others. Often, they have been given explanations that never quite fit. In therapy, we can look at this whole picture together, including your history, your strengths, what's been difficult for you, and build an approach that fits how you think and live. That might mean working through history of trauma, burnout, anxiety, relationships, or a range of other areas.

Hello and welcome! I’m Dr. Courtney Cabell, a licensed psychologist in Michigan, and I’m glad you’re here. I live in the Metro Detroit area and am also a professor of clinical psychology, psychological assessor, researcher, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. At the heart of all of my work is a genuine curiosity about people and the experiences that shape who they are.

I believe psychological assessment can be about much more than receiving a diagnosis. It can provide language for experiences you may have struggled to explain, help you recognize patterns that have existed throughout your life, and offer a deeper understanding of yourself. My goal is to create an assessment experience where you feel comfortable being yourself, asking questions, and sharing your experiences without feeling judged or pressured to fit into someone else’s expectations of what autism is supposed to look like.

Hi and congrats on taking this step! My name is Dr. Shelee (pronounced Shelly) and I’m a Michigan-licensed Psychologist. I approach autism evaluations as an opportunity for you to better understand yourself. I strive to create an affirming space where you feel seen, heard, and understood throughout the testing process. I also recognize that who you are cannot be separated from the cultural, relational, and systemic contexts that have shaped how you experience and navigate the world. Whether or not your evaluation results in an autism diagnosis, my hope is that you leave with greater clarity, language for experiences you may have struggled to name, and knowledge that strengthens your sense of self-understanding and supports you in making more informed and empowered choices in/about your life.
