Private Practice History

Founder, Venus L. Works, is a native Detroiter who obtained her Masters degree in school and community counseling; stemming from a growing desire to address the personal/social development issues of children in schools. She, later found that school counseling was limited in its ability to address the root causes of issues facing children today; their home life and family dysfunction.

Venus later decided to open her own private counseling practice; one that would focus on the support and development of strong women and strong families that children need. Her practice places a special emphasis on Women's Issues + Family Dynamics to address the growing needs in these areas.

Counseling Works, PLLC officially opened its doors in 2017. Venus believes that, "It's the counseling experience that's uniquely tailored to the needs of women and their families that sets the practice apart."
