About Brad
Brad Maliszewski is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 25 years of experience helping people navigate stressful transitions and relationship struggles. He focuses on practical steps that make daily life more manageable and relationships clearer. Many clients come for help with anxiety, parenting strain, anger, or questions about intimacy and self-esteem.
Brad draws on a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. He uses client-centered work to listen and follow what matters most to the individual.
How Brad works
He adds cognitive behavioral techniques to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. The Gottman Method guides his work on communication and connection in relationships. Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused.
He helps people name patterns, test small changes, and build routines that reduce stress. Conversations also explore emotions tied to guilt, shame, and isolation so those feelings become easier to manage. Brad has particular experience with blended family issues, separation or divorce-related strain, and ongoing family conflict.
He helps people untangle communication problems and rebuild trust after infidelity. He also supports clients facing questions of life purpose and meaning. People who choose Brad can expect a calm, direct style and clear suggestions to try between sessions.
He works with adults in Michigan and conducts sessions in English. His practice offers several online formats to fit different schedules and needs.

Online support options
Online approaches for relationship and life challenges
Brad uses client-centered therapy to create a listening space where the person leads the conversation and goals come from their priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and identify what they most want to change.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, anger, and unhelpful habits by trying small, testable changes and tracking what works.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brad collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and comfort level, and he adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can work for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These formats offer flexibility for scheduling, quick follow-ups between sessions, and ways to keep momentum during life transitions.
