Great to meet you!

I’m Michelle Kurtz, a licensed therapist dedicated to helping clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion and clarity. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I bring 20 plus years of experience in providing evidence-based therapy.

My approach to therapy

My practice focuses on treatment for anxiety, depression, and trauma, using approaches such as CBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based therapy. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space to support your growth and healing, tailoring treatment to your unique needs.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect a collaborative, compassionate space where your voice is heard, and your goals guide our work. I blend evidence-based techniques with personalized strategies to help you gain practical tools for managing challenges, fostering self-awareness, and building resilience. Clients often leave with greater clarity, coping skills, and a renewed sense of empowerment to navigate their unique journey toward healing and growth.
