About Aaron

Aaron Silverman is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker in Michigan with 15 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on relationship and intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, and career concerns. He also focuses on attachment, codependency, communication problems, emptiness, forgiveness, jealousy, life purpose, men's issues, and self-love.

Aaron describes himself as someone who learns from life as much as from school. He uses that perspective to help people become more congruent - so what they feel, think, and do line up better. Sessions are conversational and practical. He helps people talk through conflicts and express themselves more clearly in relationships and at work.

His practice blends real-life insight with evidence-based techniques. He draws on mindfulness, internal family systems ideas, psychodynamic thinking, motivational interviewing, and cognitive behavioral tools to address emotions and patterns. Aaron aims to reduce internal and relational conflict so people feel steadier with those close to them.

People who come to him can expect direct attention to how their feelings show up in relationships. He helps clients notice patterns, practice new ways of responding, and set clearer boundaries when needed. The work includes learning skills and testing them in everyday life.

Aaron invites a straightforward, practical approach rather than jargon. He meets people where they are and focuses on changes that make daily life smoother. For next steps, he asks prospective clients to use the site's matching process and schedule an initial session.

How his approaches translate to online work

Aaron combines several practical, evidence-based approaches in his work. Mindfulness is used to help clients notice moments of rising anger or anxiety and respond with steadier attention rather than immediate reaction. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses to reduce conflict in relationships and at work.

He also draws on internal family systems ideas and psychodynamic perspectives to help people understand recurring emotional patterns and where those impulses come from. These approaches can make it easier to see why certain situations trigger anger or withdrawal and to try different ways of responding over time.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. He works collaboratively to choose methods that match a client's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions include practical skills practice and checking how changes are working in daily life so the plan evolves with the client's feedback.
