Elysian Psychological Services of Northeastern Michigan was founded by Dr. Cari Oliver, who has dedicated much of her career to working with individuals suffering from PTSD and other complex traumas through her roles with the Department of Defense, the Veterans Health Administration, and inpatient hospitalization settings. Recognizing an increasing need for high-quality care, particularly for those dealing with complex trauma, personality disorders, and other mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties, Dr. Oliver decided to establish her own private practice.

While mental health services have become more accessible through various platforms, Dr. Oliver identified a gap in the consistent quality of care available. This inspired her to grow Elysian into the comprehensive, multi-state therapy practice it is today. Elysian is made up of a carefully chosen team of highly skilled behavioral health providers, whose deep empathy complements their professional expertise. Each team member shares a commitment to offering personalized, evidence-based treatment.
