About Peter

Peter Wolf works with people facing relationship strain, grief, addiction, anger, depression, and major life changes. He helps with parenting questions, intimacy concerns, career transitions, and family conflict. His style is practical and respectful, and he focuses on what clients want to address first.

He encourages clients to separate problems they can change from problems they must learn to live with. That distinction helps people spot possible solutions and decide which steps to try. He does not pick the solution for someone - clients choose which options fit their life.

Peter has 15 years of counseling experience and has offered both individual and group work. He has worked with people from a range of backgrounds, including inner-city Detroit and suburban communities. He has also taught counseling courses at multiple universities.

Educationally he holds a Master’s degree in Counseling from Wayne State University and a Ph.D. in Counseling from the University of Michigan. He carries the LPC credential, which is listed as MI LPC.

In sessions he helps people list possible ways forward, set priorities, and decide which concerns need immediate attention versus ongoing care. The pace and goals are set together so work fits each person’s situation. He welcomes conversations about what a helpful first step might look like for you.

How these approaches guide online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. The therapist offers empathic support and reflects back what the person says so they can clarify goals and make their own choices. It is helpful for relationship troubles, life transitions, and mood struggles.

Existential Therapy looks at meaning, values, and personal responsibility. It invites people to consider how they want to live and how to face unavoidable challenges, which can be useful during grief or major life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and together choose the methods that fit best. This collaborative process often begins in the first few sessions and can be adjusted as needs change.

Confirm session options before booking so you know what formats are available for this therapist. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins that fit into a busy day. Some formats also make it simpler to have a short follow-up or a focused problem-solving visit without needing a long commute.
