Michelle Cohen

Michelle Cohen, LCSW, is a former professional athlete who specializes in trauma, crisis intervention, and complicated grief and bereavement. With a focus on holding a safe, non-judgmental space for clients, she uses a gentle and empowering approach, incorporating Solution-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (SF-CBT). Michelle is dedicated to helping individuals, including athletes, heal, build resilience, and navigate life's most difficult challenges.

My approach to therapy is rooted in understanding and compassion, where I gently explore each individual’s unique background and experiences through a systems perspective. I consider the various relationships and identities a person holds, recognizing how these elements shape their journey. Above all, I prioritize creating a safe, supportive space where clients can feel heard, valued, and cared for as they navigate their personal healing process.

In our sessions, clients can expect to feel both empowered and gently challenged. We will work together to set goals focused on the areas they most want to improve while also creating space to process their experiences and emotions deeply. Through this balance, you'll gain tools for growth and healing, as well as a deeper understanding of yourself and your journey.
