Great to meet you!

Hi there! I'm Michelle, a licensed therapist dedicated to helping individuals achieve emotional well-being. With a background as a Mental Health Counselor from Touro College, I specialize in providing personalized therapy services for children to young adults.

A bit about my approach to therapy

In therapy, I strive to create a nurturing space where clients can feel safe and supported as they explore their innermost thoughts and emotions. With a foundation built on personal warmth, empathy, and acceptance, I work diligently to foster a nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and understood.

What you can expect from our first session

My specialization in creating personalized therapy services for children to young adults allows me to adapt my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual. Through compassionate guidance and unwavering support, I am committed to helping clients achieve their fullest potential and lead lives filled with meaning and fulfillment.
