About Lindsay Hall

People seek therapy for various reasons. Some find themselves stuck in depression, constant worry, or unfulfilling relationships. Others feel consumed by stress related to work, school, or a difficult life transition. If this sounds like you, I encourage you to reach out and see how therapy can help.

My goal is to empower and support you in making the changes you wish to see in your life. I believe everyone holds the capacity to grow and deserves the opportunity to do so. I work with clients to help them navigate the barriers they face. Through the therapeutic process, clients can experience symptom reduction, learn new skills, and gain a fresh perspective on their life. I would be honored to accompany you on this journey toward your happier, healthier self.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Michigan, where I focused on Interpersonal Practice and Mental Health. I have worked in both inpatient and outpatient mental health settings, and I am dedicated to providing care that is person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I am empathetic, compassionate, and a careful listener. My office is a space in which clients can feel safe and be heard.

Unique Approach to Therapy

What makes my approach unique? I am regularly asking for feedback from my patients. How is the treatment going? Are we addressing issues you care about? Do you feel you are making measurable progress? At Start My Wellness, we help people actively engage in making therapy as useful and user friendly as possible. We use this feedback to improve treatment methods, guide therapist training and improve overall customer satisfaction. We believe this patient-centered approach makes Start My Wellness world-class.

Specialized & Extended Training

What makes Lindsay Hall stand out is her high level of education and experience. She, along with all Start My Wellness therapists, attends at least 120 hours of extensive ongoing training and personal development per year in treating anxiety, depression, work stress, and relationship problems. This rigorous instruction differentiates Lindsay from others in the field and allows her to provide the highest quality of service to patients.

Start My Wellness definitely receives 5 stars. Their staff are incredibly helpful and want you to get the care you need. I did start by seeing Scott, but found him to not be the best fit for me. This can be a potentially uncomfortable situation for someone who already has anxiety on the best of days. Between talking with Laila who I see for medication and WISH I could have her as my actual therapist, and Mike Misiak at the main office, we are all in alignment on what my treatment plan is going forward. I am so impressed with Start My Wellness, which I found through the program my work started, I am going to be doing a full company presentation to talk about my experience and how SMW really does a great job of taking the stigma out of therapy! Thank you to everyone!

I have not been here but I go to the previous employer of Abigail (Platt) Schellhammer… I’m very saddened she is gone. I have seen her last 6 years. She is so professional and personable. I prayed she stayed in family practice in my area. I may just drive to Ferndale🥰Wishing her happiness. Also letting SMW know how lucky they are to have her. I’ve went to her replacement this week and let’s just say she CANNOT be replaced. I left crying after realizing I lost the BEST practitioner I could ask for. UGH!!!! Best of luck to her though she deserve the world.
