About ECI

We grow through relationships and connection matters at every stage of life.

Early Connections Institute is a relationship-centered mental health practice supporting children, adolescents, adults, parents, and families throughout the many stages of life.


Our work is grounded in the belief that emotional wellbeing develops within relationships. Using attachment-informed and developmentally responsive approaches, our therapists help clients better understand themselves, navigate challenges, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change.

 

From pregnancy and early parenthood to childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and family life, we provide thoughtful, individualized support that considers not only what someone is experiencing, but the relationships and experiences that have shaped them.
 

Based in Brighton, Michigan, ECI serves individuals and families throughout Livingston and Oakland Counties through in-person and virtual services.
