About Dale

Dale Potter is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Michigan who brings 18 years of clinical experience to his work. He emphasizes an eclectic, Wabi-Sabi informed approach that values creativity, acceptance of imperfection, and collaborative discovery.

Background and approach

Dale adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person’s priorities and circumstances, aiming to help clients navigate stress, anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and a wide range of life transitions.

His practice includes focused support for ADHD, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, and compassion fatigue, along with additional attention to topics such as autism spectrum differences, sensory and communication challenges, and post-traumatic stress.

Dale integrates client-centered listening with mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies, plus trauma-informed methods when relevant, to help clients develop practical coping skills and clearer direction. Known for treating people with sensitivity and respect, he welcomes those exploring spiritual shifts, LGBTQ concerns, parenting stresses, career questions, and identity-related issues.

Dale frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages prospective clients to take the first step toward greater wellbeing by reaching out for support.

Approach-driven online therapy tailored to your needs



Dale commonly integrates client-centered therapy and mindfulness therapy into online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and tailoring conversations to the client’s own goals, helping people feel heard and understood as they sort through life challenges. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical attention skills that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, which is useful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together; Dale collaborates with clients to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. He frames therapy as a partnership where techniques are adjusted over time based on what is most helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving clients flexibility to engage in ways that fit their schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access sessions from different locations within Michigan, and use different communication styles as progress unfolds.
