Meet Marissa, our wonderful Office & Therapy Dog Assistant at G3!

Marissa is an upperclassman at Northville High School and a dedicated member of the National Honor Society. She plans to study psychology in college and has already completed several psychology courses for college credit.

She brings an impressive mix of leadership and heart to our team — founding and serving as President of her school’s Dyslexia Awareness Club, participating in the ASL Club, and mentoring middle school students in competitive speech.

Outside of school and G3, Marissa is a talented crocheter who sells her creations at local art fairs and through special orders… and she enjoys relaxing with a good show during her downtime.

We’re grateful to have her supporting our office and, of course, helping out with Lexie and our therapy dog program!

As we head into Thanksgiving and all the gatherings the next month brings, we’re reflecting on something simple but powerful: connection happens around the table. 💛✨

This week on the blog, Barb Stump is sharing a story inspired by time spent in New Orleans — a place that truly understands the art of bringing people together through food, music, and soul. From Cajun flavors to jazz rhythms to beignets (yes, please!), NOLA reminded us just how meaningful it can be to slow down, savor, and really be with the people we care about.

In this post, you’ll find a few “Big Easy Tips” for planning your next family or friends gathering, from prepping the meal to creating a warm, artful table that makes everyone feel welcome.

If you’re looking to bring a little extra intention (and maybe a little NOLA magic) to your holiday hosting this year, you’ll love this one. 🤍

Last week, G3 was honored to speak with more than 50 parents about Work Completion and how to support teens who struggle with Executive Functioning. We’re grateful to the Novi Community School District for inviting our team to share on such an important and timely topic.

Dr. Snyder, Dr. Sportsman, and Dr. O’Shea walked families through what executive functioning is, why it matters, and how challenges in this area can make schoolwork feel overwhelming. They also offered practical strategies parents can use at home to help their teens build confidence, follow-through, and healthier habits.

If your child is struggling with executive functioning or work completion, we’re here to help. Reach out anytime — supporting families is at the heart of what we do at G3.

As we head into Thanksgiving week, this is your gentle reminder that caring for yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential. The holidays can be full, beautiful, and demanding all at once. Making space to recharge helps you show up with more patience, presence, and compassion for the people you love.

Wishing you moments of calm, connection, and ease this week. 💛

Holidays are busy, emotional, and… a lot. 🎄✨
If you’re feeling stretched thin, you’re not alone.

That’s why we pulled together five simple, 5-minute self-care ideas you can actually fit into real life this season. No big time commitment. No elaborate routines. Just small moments that help your nervous system breathe.

From a quick grounding breath to a tiny tidy to a 3-line journal prompt, these little resets can make the whole season feel a bit more manageable.

Save this post so you can come back to it when things get hectic.
Take what you need. 💛

Our Psychologists, Dr. Julie A. Galvin and Evan Harwood, along with our Certified Therapy Dog, Lexie, had a wonderful time presenting at Plymouth Canton Community Schools last week. 🐾

The student club Warriors for a Healthy Mind invited G3 to share about the benefits of Animal Assisted Therapy (AAT). It was a great opportunity to talk through what goes into training and certifying a therapy dog, and to highlight the growing research on how AAT supports emotional well-being.

We’re grateful for the invitation and always love helping students learn more about mental health and the healing power of the human–animal bond.

Behind every great therapeutic match is a thoughtful intake process.

At G3, our Intake Specialist, Carolina, plays a key part in helping new clients feel seen, supported, and connected from the very first conversation. With her background in psychology and HR, and her warm, humanistic approach, she takes the time to understand each person’s needs so she can match them with the therapist on our team who’s the best fit.

A strong start leads to better outcomes, and we’re grateful for the care she brings to every interaction.

Earlier this month, our G3 team used our monthly training time to pause the usual agenda and dive deeper into an incredibly important topic: supporting clients who are experiencing grief. 💛

We were grateful to welcome Rick Guttersohn—formerly of New Hope Grief Center and now with Resilient Heart Therapy & Consultation—to guide us through the many forms grief can take. Rick reminded us that grief isn’t only tied to death; it can arise from the loss of a relationship, a job, a medical diagnosis, or any major life change.

He emphasized the power of allowing ourselves (and our clients) to fully feel sadness, to cry with others, and to recognize that grief is not linear. Instead, healing often involves moving in and out of the emotions of loss while also taking steps toward restoration.

We’re deeply appreciative of Rick for sharing his time, compassion, and expertise. It was a meaningful and grounding learning experience for our whole team. 💙

Change got you down?


  • Do you feel stuck and yearn to change, but are stalled at the starting blocks?

  • Are you drowning in unplanned change, and feeling numbing stress?

    • Change—and really, your whole life—is a journey, not a destination. Together, we’ll identify and prioritize what you want to achieve, and set you up with tools and methods to take on and take charge of that journey. You’ll be better equipped to learn, expand your horizons, and capitalize on the process as you move through it.
