Great to meet you!

I deeply value education and being a lifelong learner. I have my LCSW and PhD (Human Services/Criminal Justice) and am consistently in search of how I can be a better therapist.

I specialize in CBT, trauma-informed care, TFCBT, and solution-focused therapies.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My main goal is to provide a supportive environment for you to identify what obstacles are preventing you from living a more satisfying life. Together, we will explore your resiliency and tools that you already have in your "tool box" to overcome such challenges.

I have experience providing support to individuals with depression, anxiety, anger management issues, trauma and trauma recovery, processing previous and recent sexual assault or sexual abuse.

What you can expect from our first session

I believe that you are the "expert" of your own life. Therefore, a collaborative and team approach, I believe, is best for reaching your overall goals. If you are seeking support in any of these areas, I would be honored to support you along your journey.

Michelle's style is
