My approach to therapy

Michal has a passion for neuroscience, integrative medicine, conventional medicine, and decreasing the stigma related to mental health. Michal delivers patient-centered and nonjudgemental care. Her comprehensive approach to optimal wellness includes assessing, evaluating, and managing the whole patient (mind, body, soul, spirit).

What you can expect from me
