Getting to know Shanti Turner

I’ve been a licensed Master Clinical Therapist since 2022, holding a Master’s in Social Work from Wayne State University (2018) and a Bachelor’s in Social Work from Oakland University (2017). I incorporate various therapeutic approaches such as CBT, psychodynamic therapy, exposure therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. I conduct group therapy sessions focusing on trauma, PTSD, and substance abuse. Experienced in crisis therapy and determining appropriate care levels, I combine DSM-5 knowledge with client engagement to empower individuals to reach their full potential.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Great listener and Gabe me amazing tools too help with my issues
I would not go back to this provider, nor would I recommend her to anyone. As someone who has spent years in therapy and seen multiple therapists, I have never been treated like this. My appointment was supposed to be from 11-12, but she only gave me 30 minutes of her time. In addition to this, after hearing information from me, she would provide advice. When I explained that her advice wouldn't work given my already expressed scenario, she would back-track and claim she never said that. For example, she told me I should manage my time better like going to bed earlier or waking up earlier. When I expressed I go to bed at 9pm and wake up rather early already, she said "I never said you had to go to bed earlier." After literally saying exactly that... Did not feel like she listened and heard my problems or gave feedback specific to my issues... Overall, I walked away having wasted my time, after not even being given the total time my appointment should've been. Do NOT recommend.
Loved my session. In the past I worked with therapists for years without working on a timeline. It feels like I’ll clearly be able to see my progress at a time in life where it’s vital. Very excited to start this journey.
