01About Brad
Brad Maliszewski is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 25 years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and helps people facing changes in their lives. His style is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping clients take small, achievable steps forward.
Clients often come for help with communication problems, blended family issues, and the fallout from separation or infidelity. He also works with people struggling with self-esteem, guilt, shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and focused on concrete tools to manage emotions and improve interactions. Brad blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. He also uses elements of the Gottman Method for relationship concerns and psychodynamic thinking to understand recurring patterns.
These approaches are used to match each person’s needs rather than as fixed prescriptions. In a typical session he listens for what matters most, reflects what he hears, and then suggests strategies to try between meetings. That might include communication skills, thought-challenging exercises, or practical steps to reduce stress.
The goal is steady progress you can notice in day-to-day life. Brad aims to make therapy understandable and accessible. He supports parents working through parenting strain and people managing anger or intimacy struggles with calm, clear guidance.
Conversations are paced to fit each person’s comfort and goals.

How these approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. Online sessions let the therapist reflect what they hear and follow the client's lead, helping people identify practical next steps and build confidence in daily life.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. In video or phone sessions, CBT translates into clear exercises and homework - like tracking thoughts or testing new behaviors - that clients can use between meetings to reduce anxiety and manage stress.
The Gottman Method offers structured ways to improve communication and reduce conflict in close relationships. When used remotely, it provides concrete skills and practice exercises that partners can try at home and then discuss during sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to pick methods that match goals, preferences, and the issue at hand. That means adjusting techniques over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging adds practical flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text is helpful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or tracking progress between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep momentum between sessions.
