About Fran Adler

Fran Adler is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) practicing in the State of Michigan. She earned a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and has practiced as a therapist for 25 years in both private and group settings.

Over the course of her career she has worked with teens, couples, families, Pride/LGBTQ clients, and individuals ranging in age from 3 to 80. Her work has addressed a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, workplace and home difficulties, conflicts with family members or friends, relationship challenges, trouble making decisions or finding satisfying work, struggles adjusting to change, and grief after the death of a loved one or other significant loss.

Fran approaches therapy as support for people experiencing emotional pain that often accompanies life. She emphasizes the value of having a professional who exists outside a person’s personal network - a neutral, nonjudgmental presence who offers acceptance and support. Over many years of practice she has found it a privilege to help people navigate difficult periods and move forward, and she welcomes inquiries from those seeking assistance.
