About Antoinette
Antoinette Wilder is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, family concerns, grief, parenting challenges, and self-esteem struggles. She also addresses related issues such as caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels heavy and to notice patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking, drawing on client-centered methods and elements of cognitive behavioral therapy. Antoinette encourages honest talk about feelings without judgment and helps people weigh options for change.
Her background includes work in family and juvenile court settings. That experience involved parent-child relationship issues, divorce matters, child support, and job readiness support. She has also run domestic violence and parenting groups, which informs her understanding of family stress and practical supports.
In sessions she listens for the everyday problems behind a larger concern - money stress, midlife questions, or panic attacks - and helps clients break those problems into manageable pieces. She will work with clients to set short-term goals and try concrete strategies between meetings.
Antoinette offers therapy in English and practices in Michigan. People considering therapy are encouraged to review session options and the process for scheduling a first appointment.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches manageable strategies to reduce worry and panic and to address unhelpful behaviors.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Antoinette will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the client's situation. She adjusts techniques based on what is helpful and what the client wants to focus on.
The original biography does not list specific online formats. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove commuting time. They can also let people use phone-only options when bandwidth or quieter surroundings make video difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists often find different formats suit different practical needs, and Antoinette can help identify which approach and session style fit a client's life.
