About Ryan

Ryan Huling is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with six years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, anger, career concerns, and related issues such as attachment and communication problems.

He favors straightforward, conversational sessions. Ryan treats therapy as a relationship that develops over time and asks for honesty from both people. Sessions aim to build self-awareness, identify strengths, and try practical steps that can reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning.

Ryan uses a mix of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic ideas. He often helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, test new reactions, and practice clearer communication.

Outside of his clinical role he is a husband and father of three, enjoys the outdoors, and listens to hard rock music. Those personal details inform a down-to-earth style and everyday examples in sessions rather than clinical distance.

Clients can expect direct conversation, brief skill-building, and attention to practical problems like parenting challenges, relationship conflicts, and managing stress. The first sessions typically focus on what the person wants to change and small steps to try between meetings.

How his approaches translate to online work

Ryan commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. He also uses client-centered methods that focus on listening and reflecting, helping people clarify their goals and feel heard. Mindfulness therapy is used to teach practical attention and breathing skills for stress and mood management.

Finding the right mix of methods is treated as a collaborative process. He discusses goals and preferences in early sessions and adjusts techniques based on what helps the person make small, measurable changes. The plan can shift as progress is tracked and new challenges appear.

If you are considering online work, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. The practical benefits of remote sessions include easier scheduling, reduced travel time, and the ability to fit brief check-ins into a workday or family routine. Some formats also allow shorter conversations when bandwidth or camera use is limited. He will help choose the way to meet that best fits daily life and goals.
